Vonage Leads the Pack (Online Ad Spending)

Vonage continues to spend like drunken sailors on liberty after months out on the water.

As they spend millions, their cost of customer acquisition increases. I used to think the cost including bounties, rebates to retailers, MAP funds, slotting allowances and just about all the other laid in costs were in the range of 600-700 dollars. Now I think more.

As they keep spending the cost vs. return on a customer goes up. Add in a high churn rate and you have the makings of bad investment down the road.
