Digital Planning Case Studies

Situation
Corten Fitness is a boutique fitness brand using Meta Ads to drive trial sign-ups and first-time purchases. While campaigns were generating results, there was a need for greater clarity around whether reported performance reflected true new customer acquisition or was being inflated by returning members and loose attribution.
With efficiency and scalability in mind, accurate measurement was critical to making confident budget and growth decisions.
Solutions
To address this, Web Conductors implemented a disciplined Meta Ads strategy focused on acquisition clarity and conservative performance measurement.
Key components of the approach included:
- Clear Entry Offers - Campaigns were structured around straightforward trial and introductory offers designed to attract first-time customers.
- Simplified Conversion Paths - Ads and landing experiences were optimized to reduce friction and make it easy for new users to complete their first purchase.
- Conservative Attribution Rules - Existing customers were excluded from conversion reporting. Conversions were only counted when first-time buyers completed a purchase directly tied to the campaign.
- Ongoing Performance Optimization - Campaigns were continuously refined based on clean, decision-grade data rather than inflated platform metrics.
The Result
This approach led to measurable improvements in paid media performance and reporting clarity:
- 3.18x return on ad spend (ROAS) using conservative attribution
- Improved visibility into true acquisition performance
- Greater confidence in evaluating efficiency and scaling decisions
Performance reporting reflected what the business could realistically sustain, rather than overstated results.
Success
By prioritizing clean measurement over inflated dashboards, Corten Fitness gained a more accurate understanding of what was driving growth.
This allowed the team to protect efficiency, make smarter budget decisions, and establish a stronger foundation for sustainable, long-term acquisition through paid media.

Marketing Case Studies

Situation
J Austin & Sons is a client of ours in the GTA looking to gain qualified leads for their building material sales.
Solutions
Leaning into customer behaviour when seeking out new products and services on Google as a signal they're ready to buy, we've set up search ads that only appear at the top of the search results page to the very specific target audience, in the targeted area, so our client's brand shows up while their offering is being actively sought-after.
RESULTS
From an awareness perspective, their brand name appeared 6,600 times in the last 30 days at no ad cost to the advertiser and drove 140 new prospects to their website at a cost per click (CPC) of $2. The real ROI is looking at the 39 calls, emails and other website engagements they received for >$8 each. With an approximate AOV of $220, that's nearly $8k of revenue ready for their sales team to win

Situation
Wolf Creek Building Supplies was spending too much money on traditional marketing efforts such as flyers, radio spots, and exterior signage but couldn't determine a particular sales boost from these investments. Furthermore, they had a goal to reach a particular customer segment and the targeting was so broad across these traditional channels, they couldn't be sure if they were reaching them.
Solutions
Without providing additional marketing budget, they shifted resources over to the Web Conductors team to develop an online strategy to reach their target audience with search engine marketing. Now they have the ability to very specifically target their customer (by age, profession, interests, geographical region, etc.) and monitor the results that are being tracked as their customers engaged with their online advertising (sees an ad, clicks on an ad, shops the website, requests a quote, all of it!).
SUCCESS
In just under a year, one location invested approx. $2,500 in ad spend that achieved 492 conversions. That's around $5 per conversion. As an example of what the return on their investment is; if their average ticket is $75, that's nearly $75k in revenue Wolf Creek Building Supplies can enjoy because they were able to better reach their target market with digital marketing!
