In other words, they demonstrate how efficient it is in terms of attracting new customers.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AAARRR stands for Awareness, Acquisition, Activation, Revenue, Retention, Referral.<\/span><\/p>\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div class=\"m-border-top block\">\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-1\">\r\n        <h3>1. AWARENESS<\/h3>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-2\">\r\n        <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first step is simple. Make your audience aware that your brand or product exists. Your goal here is to build up your brand or product and introduce it to the market. Think about what advertising channels can lead you to your target audience? What media platforms do your potential customers engage the most?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Metrics to track:<\/em> Impressions &amp; Social Impressions, CTR, Site Visits, etc. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div class=\"m-border-top block\">\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-1\">\r\n        <h3>2. ACQUISITION<\/h3>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-2\">\r\n        <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next step is about first user interaction with your brand. That can be any interaction with your website, app download, perhaps a user joined a newsletter, or some email promotion. Once the user is acquired, you should gather information like demographic details. It can help you craft ideal customer personas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Metrics to track:<\/em> New Leads, Visit-to-lead Conversion Rate, Social Engagement Rate, Email CTR, Bounce Rate, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div class=\"m-border-top block\">\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-1\">\r\n        <h3>3. ACTIVATION<\/h3>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-2\">\r\n        <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This stage is about real user interaction with your product or service, where you offer a solution to their problem or need. It determines whether they stay engaged or leave. At this point, help your users to get the most from your product or service.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Metrics to track:<\/em> CR, CPA, Engagement Rate, Bounce Rate, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div class=\"m-border-top block\">\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-1\">\r\n        <h3>4. REVENUE<\/h3>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-2\">\r\n        <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That is the moment when users decide to pay and become your customers. Measure how many free customers become paying ones over a certain time?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At this point, you can understand how much it costs to acquire a customer, and how much you earn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Metrics to track:<\/em> CLTV, CAC, Repeated Purchases, Revenue Churn, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div class=\"m-border-top block\">\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-1\">\r\n        <h3>5. RETENTION<\/h3>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-2\">\r\n        <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At this stage, take a look at how many activated customers have returned and continue to use your product or service. Customer loyalty is crucial to any business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep an eye on your Retention Rate. If it is low, then you better rethink your offers and who you market to.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Metrics to track:<\/em> Retention Rate, CLTV, Churn Rate, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div class=\"m-border-top block\">\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-1\">\r\n        <h3>6. REFERRAL<\/h3>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-2\">\r\n        <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And last but not the least, at this stage your customers refer your brand, product, or service to at least one friend. Keep in mind that any customer can be your potential brand ambassador. Word-of-mouth is vital as most customers take action because of personal recommendations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Metrics to track:<\/em> Customer Satisfaction, Social Shares, Referrals, NPS, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div class=\"m-border-top block\">\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-1\">\r\n        <h3><\/h3>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"block__col-2\">\r\n        <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even though the AAARRR Funnel was designed for startups at first, it is useful for all companies that are mastering something new: the market, the audience, the product.
