Building a repeatable acquisition engine ahead of Series B

Replaced founder-led growth with a measurable acquisition system. Pipeline up 184%, CAC down 38%, payback under six months.

Client overview

A Series A SaaS company with strong product-market fit but unpredictable, founder-led growth needed a repeatable acquisition engine before their next raise.

The challenge

Growth depended almost entirely on the founders' network and inbound from a single content channel. CAC was rising, attribution was nonexistent, and the board wanted a predictable pipeline ahead of Series B.

The strategy

  • 01Isolate paid CAC by channel to see what was actually working
  • 02Rebuild the trial funnel around a defined activation metric
  • 03Launch a bottom-funnel SEO program targeting comparison and alternatives keywords
  • 04Concentrate paid acquisition on the two channels showing positive payback rather than spread thin

The execution

  • Rebuilt landing pages and trial onboarding around the activation moment
  • Deployed full conversion tracking and self-reported attribution end-to-end
  • Launched LinkedIn and Google Search campaigns scoped to high-intent segments
  • Shipped 18 bottom-funnel content pages — comparison, alternatives, and use-case — over the engagement
