Case Study — Global Client Acquisition for a Trade Company
Client: Trade company (Manager with 4 years’ experience)
Agency: Ayush Digital
Campaign duration: 1 year
Ad spend: Meta (global) ₹60,00,000 | Google (global) ₹1,00,00,000
Executive summary
Ayush Digital ran a 12-month, full-funnel global acquisition program for a trade company whose manager wanted consistent international clients. Using a combined Meta + Google approach (brand awareness → demand capture → conversion), we converted awareness into qualified leads across multiple countries. The campaign blended localized creatives, multi-language landing pages, and aggressive conversion-oriented bidding — producing steady month-on-month growth in inquiries and paid customers.
Bahut badiya result: within one year the client saw clear uplift in global lead volume and better-quality inbound requests — exactly what they wanted: reliable international clients, not just clicks.

-
Mid funnel (MOF) — Retargeting & engagement: Retarget TOF engagers with case study videos, product benefits, and lead magnets (catalogues, sample orders).
-
Bottom of funnel (BOF) — Google (demand capture): Search campaigns for high-intent queries, Performance Max for cross-channel capture, Display remarketing for cart/quote abandoners.
-
Conversion & nurture: Dedicated country/language landing pages, WhatsApp + email automation, sales enablement (scripts for manager), and CRM tracking.

Tactical execution — what we actually did
Meta (₹60L)
-
Campaigns: Brand videos (TOF), lead-form campaigns (MOF), dynamic product/offer ads (BOF) for remarketing.
-
Audiences: 3× lookalikes from best customers, layered interest audiences per region, custom audiences from website & engaged video viewers.
-
Creative: Short 15–30s vertical videos, carousel product packs, localized copy (English + market language when needed). A/B test: 3 headlines × 2 CTA styles × 2 thumbnail variants.
-
Optimization: Daily budget reallocation to top performing countries & creatives, weekly creative refresh to avoid ad fatigue.
Google (₹1Cr)
-
Campaigns: Search (brand & non-brand), Performance Max for multi-channel reach, Display remarketing, and Shopping/Discovery where product catalog allowed.
-
Bidding: Smart bidding (maximize conversions → target CPA) and manual bidding for strategic high-value keywords.
-
Assets: Localized landing pages per major market, structured form fields to capture qualifying info (company size, monthly order value).
-
Tracking: Offline conversion upload from CRM to attribute closed deals.
Funnel & Sales Alignment
-
Landing pages: Fast, localized, clear next step (request quote / sample).
-
Follow-up: WhatsApp + email drip for all leads; SLA: initial contact within 12–24 hours (script + product sheets provided to manager).
-
Qualification: Sales team used qualifying questions added to forms to reduce unqualified leads.
Optimization & learning cycles
-
Weekly performance reviews: shift budget between Meta & Google per market performance.
-
Creative refresh every 10–14 days on Meta to reduce CPM inflation.
-
Geo-scaling: cut spend in markets with high CPL and scale in markets with lower CPA and higher lifetime value.
-
CRO: reduced friction on forms (fewer fields), added trust signals (certificates, client logos) — improved landing CVR.
Results (how to present — use real numbers; below are example metrics and a guide to compute ROI)
Important: You told me budgets and that the client “got more clients” over 1 year. I do not have the exact numeric outcomes from you (lead counts, closed deals, avg deal value). Below I show (A) the fields you should fill with real data for a portfolio-ready case study, and (B) an example with plausible sample numbers so you can see how to format results.
A.you can showcase it
(use this as a template; do not publish unless you replace with actual numbers.)
-
Total ad spend: ₹1,60,00,000
-
Total leads (year): 4,000
-
Qualified leads: 1,200
-
Closed deals: 240
-
Avg order value: ₹1,20,000
-
Revenue (from those deals): 240 × ₹1,20,000 = ₹2,88,00,000
-
CPL: ₹1,60,00,000 ÷ 4,000 = ₹4,000
-
CAC: ₹1,60,00,000 ÷ 240 = ₹66,667
-
ROAS: ₹2,88,00,000 ÷ ₹1,60,00,000 = 1.8× (or 180% return)
This example shows a healthy revenue outcome if average order value is high. If AOV is lower, ROAS will change — always plug real AOV & closed deals.

Key takeaways & recommendations
-
Blend awareness + intent channels. Meta creates demand; Google captures it — both are needed for global B2B/B2C trade.
-
Localize everything. Country-specific creatives and landing pages give better CVR.
-
Measure offline conversions. Import closed deals into the ad platform to optimize for real revenue, not just form fills.
-
Prioritize follow-up speed. Quick WhatsApp response times increased close rates significantly.
-
Scale where unit economics are strong. Move budget into markets with lower CAC and higher AOV.
-
Keep creative fresh. Video + product demo content drives better engagement on Meta.
