$62 CPL on lead-gen Meta ads

Direct-response edits for a bathroom remodel offer — offer-first structure, fixed-price typography and qualification-style CTA built for cold local traffic.

What this is

A Rise Construction lead-gen Meta ad for a fixed-price bathroom remodel offer aimed at cold local traffic.

What I changed

Opened on a before/after frame with the fixed price on screen in the first 2 seconds, cleaned the VO mix, added motion typography for price/timeline/warranty, and shipped 2 distinct cuts in 4:5 and 1:1 with a qualification-style CTA.

Result

$62 CPL on Meta lead gen at a 1.5% CTR and $1.18 CPC across the campaign window.

What I'd test next

A customer-testimonial open against the before/after hook to compare trust drivers on the same offer.

Why this was testable
Editor → media buyer
  • Offer and price land in the first 2 seconds for cold traffic.
  • Before/after carries the proof — no extra claims to defend.
  • Qualification-style CTA pre-filters leads, not just clicks.
Context

What the client needed

Rise needed cold-traffic Meta creative that booked qualified bathroom remodel calls, not just clicks. Existing cuts buried the offer and the price, so leads came in expensive and unqualified.

Old creative vs. new cut

Before

Generic remodel pitch, no fixed price on screen, slow CTA.

After

Offer-first cut: fixed price up front, qualification-style CTA.

Next tests

What I would test next

Three creative angles I'd brief into the next test cycle to keep the account learning without resetting what's already working.

Test 01

Test a customer-testimonial open against the before/after hook to compare trust drivers.

Test 02

Add a financing-angle variant ($X/month framing) to broaden the offer for price-sensitive leads.

Test 03

Cut a 9:16 Reels version with vertical before/after framing to expand placements without rebuilding the ad.
