The Inext Store is a retail and e-commerce brand operating in the consumer electronics segment. With a growing product catalogue and physical store presence, the business was investing in Facebook and Instagram advertising to generate customer inquiries — but the campaigns were producing high-cost, low-quality leads that failed to convert into sales conversations.
Existing campaigns were running broad interest-based targeting with minimal creative strategy. Cost per lead had settled in the ₹300–₹500 range, making paid acquisition economically unviable at scale relative to average order values.
Rather than running more budget through a broken funnel, we rebuilt the campaign architecture from the ground up: audience segmentation by intent stage, structured creative testing, lead form optimisation, and automated lead routing to sales.
The goal was not just a lower CPL — it was a lead generation system that produced qualified, contactable prospects at a cost the business could sustain and scale.
Segmented target audiences into cold (interest and lookalike), warm (website visitors, video viewers), and hot (past inquiries, customer lists). Each segment received different creative and bid strategies.
Developed a structured creative testing framework — 3–4 new ad variants tested per week against defined metrics. Tested static image vs. video, offer framing, and copy tone across segments.
Replaced destination URL campaigns with Meta Instant Lead Forms. Simplified form fields to name and phone only. Added pre-fill from Meta profile data to reduce friction at point of capture.
Built warm audience retargeting campaigns for users who engaged with ads, visited the website, or viewed product videos — running at lower bids with offer-specific creative.
Connected Meta Lead Forms to CRM via webhook and Zapier. Leads routed to sales within 90 seconds of submission. Weekly performance reports automated via Google Sheets.
