ℹ Context

We had an investment company looking to use Paid traffic to get more investors for their various investing ventures in sustainability, property and technology companies.

They had exhausted their small network and were looking to scale with more volume in a more leveraged way

They knew they needed creatives but they needed someone who understood how to make creatives that generate closed deals 🤝

What we did

We injected our new creatives and improved front end metrics (cost per lead) as well as improving cost per deal.

We used these creatives on a mix of channels

Meta ads

We used data to inform our future decisions

  • Any creative that did well, we created subvariations based off of A/B tests
  • We didn’t just track cost per lead but cost per closed deal 🤝
  • We always had a bank of new creatives in the background just incase previous performers
  • The chart below shows how we connected the CRM (in this case hubspot but we do this for most CRMs) in order to see which ad creatives are not just generating leads but actual PAID DEALS.
