Operations Revenue SEM Venture Capital 
Both Sides of the Table
APRIL 26, 2016
The key to being able to run a business that isn’t yet profitable (on operating margin) is availability of capital to finance losses and preferably at a cost that isn’t too punitive to the founders and employees. So if you paid $100 for a customer who converted via a Facebook ad or Google search ad (SEM) that is not your CAC.

I thing I’ve learned over the years is that technology purists hate advertising even when it is that revenue stream that truthfully drives much of our industry.
