FAQ

Common questions

What is a good LTV to CAC ratio?

+

3 to 1 is the common benchmark for SaaS. Under 1 to 1 every new customer loses money, and well above 5 to 1 usually means growth is underfunded.

Why include salaries in CAC?

+

A CAC built from ad spend alone hides most of what a customer costs. Salaries for the people who sell and market are part of the acquisition cost.

What payback period is healthy?

+

Under 12 months is strong for SMB SaaS, and enterprise deals often run 18 to 24. The longer the payback, the more cash you need upfront to grow.
