Client & Business Challenge
The client is a local cosmetology clinic (MedSpa) specializing in high-value, recurring aesthetic treatments. Lead generation was the core driver of business growth, directly impacting appointment bookings and monthly revenue. However, the clinic faced two major challenges: an unsustainably high Cost Per Lead (CPL) and a large volume of low-quality leads that failed to convert into paid appointments.
Broad targeting and generic lead capture methods resulted in wasted advertising budget and inconsistent performance. The objective was to stabilize lead generation, reduce CPL, and significantly improve lead-to-booking efficiency while maintaining predictable month-over-month results.
Performance Strategy: Precision Local Lead Funnel Optimization
The campaign strategy focused on maximizing relevance at every stage of the local lead funnel, prioritizing quality over reach.
Intelligent Geo-Clustering & Budget Allocation
Instead of city-wide targeting, advertising was concentrated on carefully selected zip codes and micro-neighborhoods. These areas were chosen based on proximity to the clinic, demographic alignment, and income indicators associated with high-value clients. This geo-clustering approach ensured that ad spend was directed exclusively toward audiences with the highest booking potential.
Qualified Lead Capture with Meta Instant Forms
Meta Instant Forms were implemented to provide a fast, mobile-optimized lead experience. To eliminate low-intent inquiries, custom qualifying questions were placed at the beginning of the form, filtering users by desired service type and availability. Conversion API (CAPI) integration ensured accurate tracking of only meaningful, qualified leads.
Benefit-Driven Creative Optimization
Creative testing focused on shifting messaging away from generic promotions toward tangible treatment outcomes. Ads highlighted specific procedures, visible results, and treatment benefits using video and static formats. This approach attracted higher-intent users and improved lead relevance.
