Not e-commerce. Not brand campaigns. Businesses where somebody has to pick up a phone, and where the whole thing lives or dies on whether that call was worth making.
What we believe
It's the easiest metric to improve and the easiest to improve dishonestly. Loosen the targeting, shorten the form, optimize toward clicks - cost per lead drops, the dashboard looks better, and the business gets worse. We've seen accounts halve their CPL and lose money doing it.
So we work to a different number: what a qualified lead costs, and where possible what a customer costs. That means being willing to show you a cost per lead going up in month two and explaining why. It's a harder conversation than the alternative, and it's the only one worth having.
The practical consequence is that we care about parts of the funnel most ad agencies treat as somebody else's job - the form, the landing page, how fast your team calls, what happens to leads that don't answer. Ads are maybe half the work. The other half is the reason the ads pay off.
Who we work with
We'd rather be specific about what we've done than claim every industry.
Day schools, competitive-exam coaching and postgraduate institutes. Fixed intake calendars, counsellor follow-up, parents deciding rather than students.
Hackathons, developer and AI events. Registrations at a cost held steady across repeat cycles, optimized on completed signups rather than page views.
Studios and programmes where a trial has to become a member, and proximity decides more than price.
Laundry, dry cleaning and shoe care - online acquisition, physical delivery, pin-code constrained.
The mechanics transfer between them. What changes is the definition of a qualified lead and the sales cycle behind it.
What we won't do
How we're set up
You work with the people who run your account. There's no account manager between you and whoever is inside Ads Manager, and nobody gets handed to a junior after signing.
The trade-off is honest: we take on a limited number of accounts at a time, because this way of working doesn't scale by adding layers. If we're full, we'll tell you rather than stretch.
Thirty minutes, free, no obligation. You keep the findings whether or not we work together - and if we're not right for you, we'll say so on the call.
