Marketing ROI: Measuring Your Efforts

Marketing ROI (Return on Investment) is a measure of the profitability of your marketing efforts. It tells you how much revenue you’re generating for every dollar spent on marketing.


Example: If you spend $500 on a marketing campaign and it brings in $2,000 in revenue, your ROI is 300%.


Marketing ROI = [(Revenue−Marketing Costs) / Marketing Costs]×100


Why It Matters: Knowing your Marketing ROI helps you determine which campaigns are most effective, allowing you to allocate your budget wisely and maximize profits.


Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC): Understanding Your Investment

Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) is the cost associated with acquiring a new customer. It includes all marketing and sales expenses.


Example: If you spend $1,000 on marketing in a month and acquire 20 new clients, your CAC is $50.


CAC = Total Marketing and Sales Costs / Number of New Customers Acquired


Why It Matters: Understanding your CAC helps you evaluate the efficiency of your marketing strategies and ensure you’re getting a good return on your investment.


Marketing Funnel: Guiding Your Clients

The Marketing Funnel is the process businesses use to guide potential customers through the stages of purchasing. It typically includes awareness, interest, consideration, and conversion.


Stages of the Marketing Funnel:

  1. Awareness: Potential clients become aware of your salon or services through ads, social media, word of mouth, etc.

  2. Interest: They express interest by visiting your website, following you on social media, or signing up for your newsletter.

  3. Consideration: They consider your services by reading reviews, checking prices, or booking a consultation.

  4. Conversion: They finally make a booking or purchase your products.


Why It Matters: Understanding the Marketing Funnel helps you create targeted strategies for each stage, effectively moving potential clients from awareness to conversion.
