If there is a way to control the cost of aqcquisition, and there usually is, then you should control that cost. If you can reduce the cost of acquiring a new customer from $20 to $15, then you might only lose $5 on the new customer. Manage that cost of acquisition. | | | | | | | | | -

WEBBIQUITY SMM | MONDAY, MAY 24, 2010 11 Myths of Social Media Marketing While recent studies show that about half of marketers say that social media reduces their overall marketing costs , it is by no means without a price.
