The campaign utilized Meta Lead Forms to attract high-quality coaching inquiries, achieving an exceptional cost per lead as low as ₹93.48, and generating a total of 138 leads across multiple campaigns. This initiative demonstrated that, when strategically executed, Meta ads can become a powerful client acquisition engine for coaching professionals.

Client Overview

Client: Confidential (Business & Mindset Coach targeting professionals, entrepreneurs, and aspiring leaders across India)

Industry: Coaching and Consulting
Location: Pan-India (Tier 1 and Tier 2 Cities)

Challenge

The client wanted to expand their reach and build a consistent pipeline of qualified coaching leads, especially for their high-ticket 1:1 programs and discovery calls. Their existing channels, primarily referrals and organic content, were not scalable. Key goals included:

  • Attracting qualified leads through Facebook and Instagram.

  • Maintaining a cost-effective lead acquisition strategy.

  • Creating awareness and trust around the coach’s transformational offer.

Strategy & Execution

We designed a focused lead generation strategy using Meta Lead Forms and targeted ad sets. The campaign was structured around direct response principles, combining compelling messaging with efficient targeting.

1. Audience Targeting

  • Professionals aged 28–45 interested in business growth, leadership, and personal development.

  • Interests included: Tony Robbins, entrepreneurship, self-help books, productivity, and digital learning.

  • Lookalike audiences based on past clients and lead databases.

2. Creative & Copywriting

Each ad featured:

  • Motivational hooks addressing pain points like burnout, career stagnation, or mindset blocks.

  • Professional creatives, including branded images and short video testimonials.

  • Clear CTAs like “Book a Free Coaching Call” or “Download Your Free Growth Blueprint.”

3. Meta Lead Forms

To eliminate friction, we used instant lead forms within Facebook and Instagram, optimized for mobile. Key qualifying fields included:

  • Full name, email, city, and primary coaching goal.

4. Campaign Optimization

  • A/B tested headlines, form formats, and creatives.

  • Paused underperforming ad sets and reallocated budget to the top-performing campaign.

  • Focused on lead quality by regularly analyzing conversion metrics from lead to call booked.

Key Insights

  • Low-Cost Lead Acquisition is Possible: The top campaign proved that with the right message and audience match, a CPL under ₹100 is achievable in the coaching space.

  • Not All Campaigns Perform Equally: While Campaign A thrived, Campaigns B and C showed higher CPLs, highlighting the importance of constant testing and optimization.

  • Form Simplicity Drives Volume: Shorter forms with clear CTAs performed better, both in lead volume and cost.

  • Audience Relevance > Broad Targeting: The highest-performing ad was tightly aligned with a specific coaching pain point and offered an actionable outcome.

Conclusion

This campaign proved that Facebook and Instagram ads can drive cost-effective, scalable lead generation for coaches and consultants. With strategic targeting, results-oriented creatives, and agile campaign management, the client built a solid pipeline of pre-qualified coaching leads — while staying well within their acquisition budget.

Recommendations for Scaling

  • Implement a Lead Nurture Funnel via email and WhatsApp for non-converted leads.

  • Retarget Leads who didn’t book a call using testimonials and case studies.

  • Expand into lookalike audiences based on high-converting leads.

  • Launch a video-based retargeting campaign focused on trust-building.
