What Is Customer Acquisition?
Customer acquisition refers to bringing in new customers — convincing people to buy your products or services. It is the process used to bring consumers down the marketing funnel from brand awareness all the way to the purchase decision.
Customer acquisition is important because it drives recommendations, brand awareness, sales, and business growth. When you acquire a new customer, they often explore your other products and recommend you to people they know — creating a compounding effect on growth.
Ultimately, customer acquisition is the driving force behind improving your business’s financial well-being. And it must be balanced with customer retention — because retaining an existing customer costs significantly less than acquiring a new one.
View All Offline Methods →Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC)
The cost of acquiring a new customer is referred to as Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC). Achieving lower CAC through lead generation best practices and analytics is a core objective of every Fulcrum campaign.
Once the acquisition process is complete, it hands itself to customer retention and re-acquisition — creating the full customer lifecycle loop that drives maximum lifetime value.

Definition of Customer Acquisition:
Customer acquisition refers to bringing in new customers – or convincing people to buy your products. It is a process used to bring consumers down the marketing funnel from brand awareness to purchase decision.
The cost of acquiring a new customer is referred to as customer acquisition cost (or CAC for short). Once the customer acquisition process is complete, it then hands itself to customer retention & re-acquisition.
Customer acquisition is important because it increases recommendations, brand awareness, sales, and business ventures. When you acquire a new customer, odds are that they will check your business’s other products or services. If they continue to like what they find, they will recommend your business to the people they know, further increasing your number of customers. As you gain more customers, news of your business will spread and increase brand awareness. This, in turn, will drive sales for your business. The more sales you have, the more new products or services you can offer or new regions you can expand to.
Ultimately, customer acquisition is the driving force behind improving your business’s financial well-being.
Winning new customers and animating existing customers to rebuy is vital to any business. But how to acquire customers? We’ll show five types of customer acquisition and explain how they’ll work out.
My primary concern here is the acquisition of new customers, not to the re-acquisition of existing customers. Some of the listed forms of customer acquisition are very common (eg. telesales or mailings), others such as the acquisition by partners are not as well known, especially in smaller companies. Use this list to challenge your sales status quo and try different strategies for winning new customers.
Telesales or telemarketing
Mailing by post, leaflet hand to hand , bulk mail or e-mail

Acquiring customers through partners
Customer acquisition requires forethought and strategies. In fact, there are many different customer acquisition strategies that are used as part of the customer acquisition process. Some customer acquisition methods are more effective with specific types of clients, but there are a few basic steps that are included in any type of customer acquisition plan.
The first step of any basic customer acquisition plan is to identify quality potential customers. One customer acquisition strategy involves reaching out to potential customers through call centers and mailing lists. These customer acquisition methods allow companies to determine which individuals and businesses express interest in or already use products similar to those of your company. Next, companies qualify the leads a little further using various research methods to determine the viability of the given lead. If the chances seem likely that you will be able to acquire this new customer, his status is upgraded to that of prospect and assigned to a salesperson for further interaction.
Many customer acquisition programs then include establishing a relationship with prospects to identify their needs and determine how the products offered relate to those needs. Salespeople also attempt to identify unstated needs; these are based on data provided by ongoing conversations and interactions with the prospects. Salespeople also can identify additional needs of prospects and offer additional products so the prospects see a greater value from purchasing the products they already are considering.
Using appropriate customer acquisition strategies helps companies to grow, and targeted customer acquisition programs help companies acquire the right customers in a cost effective way. New companies or those with less established products especially need to place a greater focus on customer acquisition. As companies mature, they can shift their focus to customer retention. It’s important to keep in mind that customer acquisition costs often are higher than customer retention costs and therefore require a thorough analysis of the associated benefits. The acquisition benefits also need to be fully quantified in order for companies to accurately gauge the relative value of their customer acquisition process. For established companies to grow most effectively, they should find ways to attract, satisfy, and retain customers.
