How CAC is calculated
- Fixed monthly cost = prospecting hours x hourly cost + outreach tools + trade show cost x shows per year / 12.
- Accounts opened per month = contacted x meeting rate x trial rate x close rate.
- CAC = fixed monthly cost / accounts opened + sampling and onboarding per account.
- Payback = CAC / year-1 gross margin per account x 12 months. Under 12 months is healthy.
