What we did

In month four of this US programme several creative angles ran at once, with retargeting on earlier site traffic. That produced 32 B2B leads in 30 days on USD 5,649.52 total spend and an average CPL of roughly USD 182. The strongest campaigns were retargeting to marketing agencies at 3 leads for USD 50.17, the CSM Placements lead form at 10 leads for USD 151.60, and a founder-led video ad at 5 leads for USD 105.69. In this account founder-led video consistently outperforms static creative.

Assumptions

  • Qualified leads in this case: 32
  • Your lead-to-client rate: 5%
  • New client — first-year value: € 75,000
  • Ad spend in this case: $ 5,650

Source: The value of a new client is a multiple of a single placement. A client hiring three professionals per year at EUR 30,000 gross margin represents EUR 90,000 in annual revenue.

This is a model, not a realised result. Adjust the assumptions to your own margins and placement rate.
