Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) refers to the total cost of acquiring a new customer through a specific marketing campaign or channel, encompassing all campaign costs divided by the number of new customers acquired.
To calculate CPA, divide the total cost of a marketing campaign by the number of customers acquired from that campaign.
CPA = Total Marketing Costs / Number of Acquisitions
CPA = Total Marketing Costs / Number of Acquisitions
If a campaign costs $5,000 and results in 50 new customers, the CPA would be $100 per acquisition.
