Phase 2 · Strategy & Planning · From Idea to Executable Plan

Customer Acquisition Plan

If you cannot tell me your cost to acquire a customer and your lifetime value · you do not have a growth plan. You have a hope.

A customer acquisition plan is the explicit design of how new customers enter your business, at what cost, through which channels, at what conversion rate · and how that funnel improves over time. We build the plan so acquisition becomes a managed, optimised system rather than a random outcome.

The Pain We Solve

You may recognise yourself in one of these.

Three audience scenarios · because the same service produces a different transformation depending on where you are in the business journey.

Scenario 1

The startup unsure where customers are coming from

You have some early customers · but you cannot reliably explain how they found you. That means you cannot reliably produce more of them. Until acquisition is a plan, the business runs on luck.

Scenario 2

The SME with rising CAC and falling LTV

Each new customer is costing more to acquire while spending less over their lifetime. The trend lines are visible · but the plan to reverse them has not been built.

Scenario 3

The enterprise with channel concentration risk

Seventy percent of new customers come from one channel · and if that channel changed its rules tomorrow, the pipeline would collapse. A diversified acquisition plan is overdue.

The Impact It Creates

The Moment You Will Feel the Difference.

1

CAC tracked, understood, and improving quarter over quarter

2

LTV / CAC ratio brought into healthy territory

3

Channel diversity reduces single-point-of-failure risk

4

Funnel conversion improved at every stage

What You Receive

The Specific Deliverables.

Tangible outputs · documented, dated, and yours to keep.

  • Customer acquisition plan document
  • Channel mix and budget allocation
  • Funnel design with conversion targets at each stage

The Outcome

Where You Will Be on the Other Side.

Customer acquisition becomes a designed, measured, and improving system rather than a series of campaigns. Growth becomes predictable, the founder stops worrying about next month's pipeline, and the business compounds quarter over quarter.

Why We Price This Way

Every engagement is sized around the value we believe we can create with you. The fee is always a fraction of the outcome · typically 10 – 20% of the expected first-year return.

This is how we make sure pricing aligns with results. The conversation is never “what does this cost?” · it is always “what is this worth to your business?” We answer that together in the first call, transparently, and decide the right tier from there.

If we cannot articulate a credible 5–10× return for your specific situation, we will tell you in the first call. That honesty is part of why our clients trust us with the work that matters most.

Why This Conversation Matters

“Every business that has scaled into something meaningful has, at some point, turned customer acquisition from an art into a system. That transition is the moment growth stops being lucky and starts being inevitable.”

A 90-minute structured strategy session · produces a usable roadmap whether you engage further or not.
