Campaign Breakdown

SoudCoh partnered with Renew Tile & Grout to spark a steady pipeline of local bookings without the hefty price tag of full-scale renovations. The playbook centred on Facebook and Instagram Ads using a single-image format that dramatised a jaw-dropping before/after tile transformation. We kept placements broad—Feeds, Stories, Reels, Marketplace and Search—to let delivery optimise in real time. Copy was punchy and zesty, rotating five primary texts and four headlines such as “Tiles That Shine Again” and “Grout Woes? We Fix It!”. A Messenger “Start conversation” template asked prospects to share tile photos, fast-tracking quotes.

We ran creative in a clean, brand-forward layout: bold BEFORE/AFTER labels, the Renew mark anchored mid-frame, and a clear line—“Affordable solutions for spotless tiles.” With multi-advertiser ads enabled, discovery was electrified across surfaces.

Over four weeks, the campaign drove sizzling engagement and a booming flow of chats. Smart budget pacing, first-party Messenger intent signals and outcome-optimised delivery translated attention into booked jobs. The result? A whopping lift in qualified enquiries, sharp cost per lead, and a confident pathway to scale—exactly what a tradie brand needs to dominate its postcode.

The Problem — Lead Drought

Renew Tile & Grout were brilliant at making tiles sparkle, but their pipeline wasn’t. Word-of-mouth was uneven, and generic local ads weren’t cutting through. Prospects couldn’t picture the transformation, and quote requests stalled in back-and-forths. SoudCoh’s brief was simple: build consistent, high-intent leads and shorten time to quote. We needed creative that stopped the scroll, copy that spoke human, and a conversion path that felt effortless on mobile, without bloating costs.

Awareness stuck in the wrong places

Local print and sporadic boosted posts delivered soft reach and little proof. The market needed punchy, visual credibility that showed a real, side-by-side clean, before anyone clicked. Without that jaw-dropping moment, people kept delaying the job “for later”.

Friction from enquiry to quote

Phone calls and forms created lag. Prospects wanted quick answers and price ranges, ideally while standing in their bathroom. Slow follow-ups meant momentum fizzled and competitors pinched the job.

Copy that didn’t speak to pain

Past ads said “cleaning services available” but skipped the emotional trigger: the icky grout line you see every morning. We needed language that felt practical and optimistic, plus Aussie-correct spellings to build trust with locals.
In short, Renew weren’t top-of-feed, the journey was clunky, and the message missed the moment of need.

Strategy: The Before/After Engine

We built a mega-simple, conversion-minded ecosystem that let creative do the heavy lifting and Messenger do the selling. The north star was intent: show transformation instantly, then capture context in chat so quotes could be accurate and fast. We structured the account to favour outcome optimisation and let placements learn, minimising manual tinkering and cost creep.

Overview:
A single-image format with bold BEFORE/AFTER tiles created instant credibility. Five primary texts rotated to mirror real homeowner pain—stains, grime, and replacement costs—while four headlines reinforced an affordable, expert solution. Broad placements (Feeds, Stories, Reels, Marketplace, Search) found cheap pockets of attention; frequency caps protected freshness. The Messenger “Start conversation” template asked for photos upfront, trimming days off quoting. We layered event priorities to value replies and booked visits, not vanity clicks, and used multi-advertiser eligibility to tap incremental inventory.

Creative Proof-at-a-Glance

Minimalist frames, high contrast tiles, and a centre badge. No fluff, just a roaring, credible result people could trust in under a second.

Copy That Speaks Human

We leaned on everyday language—“Say goodbye to dirty grout”

Frictionless Messenger Flow

Pre-filled prompts requested photos, area size and postcode, queuing a fast, professional response and preventing lead drop-off.

Solutions: The Electrified Lead-to-Quote Play

Renew needed booked jobs, not just clicks. We engineered a tightly-coupled set of fixes that showcased proof, reduced effort and nudged action, fast.
How We Tackled It: 
Our opening move was to let creative prove the outcome, then make starting a chat the easiest next step. We removed guesswork with structured prompts and trained the team on crisp, friendly reply scripts. Delivery settings prioritised chats and scheduled visits rather than surface-level metrics, pushing budget where outcomes were booming.

Before/After Creative System

A modular template locked in contrast, labels and logo placement so every variation stayed on brand and punchy. Quick swaps kept freshness high without new shoots each week.

Primary Text & Headline Matrix

Five text angles and four headlines let us map pain to promise. Combinations like “Transform your floors today” with “Tiles That Shine Again” consistently earned top CTR.

Messenger Template with Photo Prompts

Auto-prompts asked for tile photos, room type, and postcode. This shaved quoting time and lifted response quality, turning chats into solid site visits.

Outcome-Optimised Delivery

We bid for conversations and booked appointments, not just clicks. Broad placements plus multi-advertiser inventory found cheaper, quality reach without sacrificing intent.

Results and Impact

We tracked what matters: chats, bookings and revenue. With intent-led delivery and crisp creative, performance took off in week one and kept compounding.
Top-Line Wins:
Over 28 days, the campaign reached 180,000 locals and drove 5,220 clicks at a $0.46 CPC. Messenger lit up with 160 qualified conversations at a $15 CPL. Of those, 74 became booked jobs—an efficient $32 cost per booking and a pipeline the team could roster with confidence. Average job value landed at $520, producing $38,480 in revenue from $2,400 ad spend—a tidy 16x ROAS. CTR averaged 2.9% with a $13.33 CPM; frequency held at 1.8, keeping fatigue at bay. Response time improved to under two minutes for 78% of chats, lifting trust and show-up rates.

Lower Funnel Wins:
Calendar utilisation rose by 41%, weekend slots sold out twice, and repeat bookings nudged up as homeowners added kitchens after bathrooms.
Together, these numbers proved the creative-plus-Messenger combo can turn casual scrollers into paying customers without discounting or gimmicks.

Key Lessons from the Strategy

Great local ads don’t need cinematic budgets, they need clarity, credibility and less friction. Our biggest gains came from showing the result first, then making it dead-easy to start a conversation.

Proof Beats Promises

The sizzling before/after format beat lifestyle shots every time. When people can see the finish, objections melt.

Optimise for Outcomes, Not Clicks

Bidding to conversations and bookings drove cheaper, better leads than bland traffic objectives.

Prompts Reduce Churn

Photo requests and postcode capture meant faster, firmer quotes—fewer tyre-kickers, more visits.

Freshness Matters

Swapping copy angles weekly kept performance booming without rebuilding the whole ad set.

Key Lessons from the Campaign

Execution details compound. The combination of layout discipline, copy rotation and fast replies did the heavy lifting.

Template-Driven Creative Scales

Locking typography, logo and labels let us ship new variants in minutes—consistency plus speed.

Broad Placements, Smart Guardrails

Letting the system hunt for cheap attention worked because our asset was strong; light frequency caps kept relevance high.

Messenger is the New Front Desk

Prospects loved sending a quick photo. It felt modern, saved time, and delivered context the team could action.

Response SLAs Win Deals

Under-two-minute replies beat competitors who waited till evening. Service velocity became a growth lever, not just a nicety.

Measure What Moves Money

Leads, bookings, revenue and ROAS told the true story; secondary metrics were useful only when they predicted those four.

Future Growth Strategy

With a proven engine, the next step is scale—responsibly. Here’s our roadmap to keep results roaring while protecting efficiency.

Offer Ladder Testing

Introduce bundle pricing (bathroom + kitchen) and a light “maintenance clean” tier. Track attachment rates and lifetime value.

Video Variants with Micro-Demos

Short, six-second wipes and grout-line close-ups for Reels to lift incremental reach at low CPMs.

UGC & Reviews in Creative

Layer one-line testimonials and star ratings into frames. Social proof should keep CTR punchy as scale rises.

Automation in Messenger

Add quick-reply buttons for room type and square metres, then route to humans for pricing—speed plus warmth.

Retention Loop

Post-service email/SMS with care tips and a six-month reminder. Turn first-timers into repeat bookings and referrals.
This play keeps the pipeline steady, the brand memorable, and the unit economics healthy as we add crews.

Conclusion

SoudCoh helped Renew Tile & Grout turn quiet weeks into a clean, predictable pipeline. By pairing a jaw-dropping visual proof with human, Frictionless Messenger flow, we shrank time to quote and lifted booked jobs without discounting. Broad placements did the heavy lifting on reach; outcome optimisation kept every dollar honest. In a single month we landed 160 qualified chats, 74 bookings and a hefty 16x ROAS, numbers any local service would be chuffed with.
