Introduction

Customer acquisition cost (CAC) is the cost related to acquiring a new customer. CAC refers to the resources and costs incurred to acquire an additional customer. It is the best approximation of the total cost of acquiring a new customer. 

It generally includes things like advertising costs, the salary of your marketers, the costs of your salespeople, overhead, commissions, bonuses, etc., divided by the number of customers acquired. 
Why is it important - It's a really useful number to help you calibrate your investment and make sure that you are making the right decisions for your growth and why does it matter –  If your customer acquisition cost is greater than your revenue for a long enough period of time, you'll possibly go out of business.
