What is Acquisition Marketing?

The traditional Madison Avenue advertising model is mainly relevant to the “CPG” world — consumer products sold in a bricks & mortar store. But services, B-to-B, and practically the whole internet economy, rely on a different model: acquiring customers and selling to them directly.

What makes it different?

  1. Call-to-action. Acquisition marketing generates an immediate and measurable lead or order, not just preference and desire to buy.

  2. Targeting. Because the objective is effecting a response, acquisition marketers select media by propensity to respond, not simply by the demographics they reach.

  3. Demonstration. Rather than assuming a consumer is familiar with a product or service, effective acquisition advertising demonstrates what it does, who it benefits, and why it’s better than the competition.
