What should happen, week by week?
Week 1: diagnosis and access. They review your offer, ads, CRM and follow-up, and get access to accounts. Tracking gaps are found.
Week 2: build. Tracking connected to the CRM, landing pages, creative and follow-up sequences.
Week 3: launch. Campaigns live, first leads flowing, response time measured.
Week 4: read and adjust. A first report that goes past clicks: leads, qualified opportunities and cost per qualified lead by campaign and message.
What can you actually measure at 30 days?
Acquisition efficiency: lead volume, cost per lead, cost per qualified lead, contact rate, booking rate. Sales, for a purchase people take weeks to decide on, may not have matured. In our documented account, qualified opportunities rose from 24 to 60 a month, cost per qualified lead fell 71.7% and spend fell 29.5%, and we reported the sales as still maturing rather than forcing a number. The full account.
What's too early to judge?
Closed revenue on long sales cycles, the best-performing message (it needs enough data), and long-term trends. A good agency says which is which.
What are the warning signs?
- No connection between leads and your CRM
- Reports of clicks and impressions only (here's why that happens)
- Nobody owns follow-up
- "The leads are bad" with no data on what happened to them
What should you do in month one?
Give access fast, respond to leads within minutes (the data), keep your CRM stages honest, and ask for cost per customer at each review.
