How a mid-market asset manager cut CAC 38% in a quarter
38%
CAC reduction, first quarter
The bottleneck
Paid campaigns had sprawled across a dozen overlapping audience segments, with no one actively moving budget between them. Compliance review added a five-day lag to every change. CAC had climbed 60% over two quarters and no one could say exactly why.
What we did
Consolidated the overlapping campaigns into one audience structure. Built a compliance-pre-approved library of swappable ad components, so routine optimisation no longer waited on a legal review cycle. Moved to weekly budget reallocation against clear CPC and CTR targets.
