The challenge

Leads were expensive and rarely reached the showroom. There was no clear view of which campaigns were driving sales, and no system for a steady flow of enquiries.

What we did

  1. 01
    Targeting by intent

    Reached buyers actively researching Nissan models and filtered out low-intent audiences.

  2. 02
    Daily optimisation

    15 campaigns watched daily. Underperformers were cut within 48 hours and winners scaled right away.

  3. 03
    Instant capture

    Click-to-WhatsApp put every enquiry into a live conversation before a competitor could reach them.

Lower is better. Industry average ₹400–600.

While competitors were paying ₹400–600 per lead, we were at ₹74.90. That is not a saving, it is a structural advantage.

₹1,611 Ad spend per vehicle sold

The challenge

The dealer wanted a steady pipeline of qualified WhatsApp enquiries that the sales team could turn into sales, not just clicks.

What we did

  1. 01
    WhatsApp-first

    Every ad opened a WhatsApp chat, capturing intent at its peak. Conversation-to-sale reached 3.3%, against a typical 1–2%.

  2. 02
    Variant-specific creative

    CNG, festival and offer-led messaging by model, not generic brand ads.

  3. 03
    Iterate to efficiency

    Cost per conversation fell from ₹153.66 at baseline to ₹9.06 in the September breakthrough campaign.

The challenge

An authorised New Holland dealer needed to reach scheme-eligible buyers at the exact moment they were ready to buy, on a very small budget.

What we did

  1. 01
    Scheme alignment

    Messaging built around the Annasaheb Yojana subsidy created trust, urgency and a clear way to finance the purchase.

  2. 02
    Seasonal timing

    Launched in step with subsidy disbursement and harvest cash flow, when buyers had both the intent and the money.

  3. 03
    Low-friction capture

    Mobile-first creative and a three-field lead form achieved a 0.61% CTR and 20.49% form conversion.
