How We Generated 1,100+ Leads for a Transport Business Using Facebook & Instagram Ads
A detailed breakdown of the exact strategy we used — and why it works for any service business looking to generate consistent enquiries online.
Ultimate Bike Transport
A South African motorcycle transport and delivery business serving customers nationwide. They had no structured digital marketing in place and relied entirely on word-of-mouth referrals to generate new business.
No Online Presence. No Leads.
The business needed a consistent, scalable way to reach motorcycle owners across South Africa. Traditional advertising was too expensive and untargeted. They needed cost-effective digital marketing that generated real enquiries — not just views.
Facebook & Instagram Ads
We used Meta's advertising platform to run targeted campaigns reaching motorcycle owners and enthusiasts across South Africa. All campaigns were optimised specifically for direct message enquiries and page engagement.
Audience Research & Targeting
We identified the exact profile of a motorcycle owner in South Africa who would need transport services — age, location, interests, and online behaviour. Every rand of ad spend was targeted at people most likely to become customers.
Ad Creative Development
We created multiple ad variations — different images, headlines, and copy — to test what resonated most with the target audience. High-performing ads were scaled while underperforming ones were paused.
Campaign Optimisation
Over 21 campaigns, we continuously refined targeting, creative, and budget allocation based on real performance data. Each campaign performed better than the last as we learned what worked for this specific audience.
Lead Generation Focus
All campaigns were optimised for direct message enquiries — meaning every result was a real person actively reaching out to the business. Not passive impressions. Not accidental clicks. Genuine potential customers.
314 Enquiries. One Campaign.
Our top performing campaign generated 314 direct enquiries reaching 33,471 people — at an average cost of just R4.54 per enquiry. This single campaign delivered more leads in one month than the business previously received in an entire year from referrals alone.
The Right Message to the Right People
The campaign succeeded because we targeted the exact right audience with a message that spoke directly to their needs. No guesswork. No broad targeting. Precision advertising that put the right offer in front of people actively looking for exactly what the business offered.
"The same system that generated 1,100+ leads for a transport business in South Africa is the exact system we now apply to dental practices across the UK. The niche changes. The strategy doesn't."
R12 per lead vs £20–£80 per lead
UK dental practices currently pay £20–£80 per lead through Google Ads. Our system generated leads at the equivalent of less than £0.50 each. Even accounting for market differences, our cost-per-lead performance is dramatically better than industry average.
One patient pays for months of ads
A dental implant in the UK is worth £2,500–£3,000. A teeth whitening treatment is £300–£500. If our ads bring your practice just 3 new patients per month, you've already covered your ad spend and management fee many times over.
