Transitioning from Organic to Paid Acquisition

Easybell aimed to increase the number of free product configuration trials while maintaining an acceptable cost per lead. However, because organic search was the main driver of sales for end customers, it became difficult to benchmark performance across paid channels using historical data.

Boosting Telecom SaaS Free Trials

Stretch Innovation tested new acquisition channels and campaigns, while also applying conversion rate optimization (CRO) across the entire funnel up to the start of the product configuration process.

What is a
growth engine

A Growth Engine is a structured system that makes business growth predictable and measurable.

It combines lead generation, marketing experiments, and automation into one scalable modeltailored to your market. By tracking performance across the funnel — from traffic to leads to customers — it shows exactly which channels deliver results, what each lead costs, and how much it takes to win new clients.

This data-driven approach reveals your Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) and compares it with deal value and Customer Lifetime Value (CLV). That way, you know which channels are profitable, which to scale, and how to keep compounding growth.

The growth engine we developed

01

Growth Audit

Conducted deep analysis of value propositions, channel performance, competitor research, and historical campaign data to identify growth opportunities.
02

Segment Focus

Narrowed focus to a single high-potential customer segment (end customers instead of partners) to achieve faster proof points and better resource efficiency.
03

Roadmap

Built a structured acquisition plan informed by early insights and market analysis, enabling efficient targeting and prioritization of campaigns
04

Growth Hacking

Ran experiments on new landing pages and acquisition channels, using A/B testing to improve performance based on real user behavior (e.g., CRO increased conversion from 6.9% to 13.1%)
05

Scaling

Set up centralized reporting across the funnel to monitor outcomes and continuously optimize campaigns for maximum impact
