High costs from spraying spend too wide

Kraftworks struggled to target the right audience, driving up lead acquisition costs.

Despite significant spend, lead quality and quantity were suboptimal — the budget was leaking into less relevant regions.

What you can learn

How this applies to your business

Cutting spend can grow leads

Sharper geographic targeting reduced ad spend 47% and still lifted leads 37%. More budget isn't the answer when the budget is leaking into regions that never convert.

Exclude before you optimize

Removing low-converting areas like hilly regions is what halved cost per lead from Rs 137 to Rs 53. Where you don't advertise is as important as where you do.

For local services, geography is the audience

Splitting campaigns across three geographic areas and testing within each surfaced the pockets that actually converted. One statewide campaign would have buried them.
