People who saw the ads.

Leads are enquiries, not sales. These examples are not a guarantee of future results.

The client

Who this was for.

A business that sells through enquiries rather than online checkout. The client’s name is withheld, and the ad set name is blurred in the screenshot.

For this kind of business, the goal is a steady flow of enquiries at a cost that makes sense once some of them become customers.

How we worked

What the work involved.

01

Instant forms

Lead forms inside Facebook and Instagram, so people do not need to leave the app.

02

Small daily budget

The ad set ran on €6.00 a day and kept delivering for nearly three months.

03

Clear questions

Form questions set to collect what the business needs to follow up.

04

Fast follow-up

Leads only turn into customers if someone replies quickly.

Read it honestly

What these numbers mean.

A cheap lead is only good if it turns into a customer. Track how many leads you speak to and how many buy, so you know your real cost per customer.
