The situation
A previous agency's campaigns had run for weeks without results. In July 2025 the practice spent $464 on Meta ads and got no leads, and it was ready to stop.
The account used a standard e-commerce pixel, which Meta restricts for medical advertisers, so the campaigns had nothing to optimize against. The landing page used stock photos that did not look like a US practice.
What we built
- Replaced the pixel with a health-compliant dataset and Conversions API events
- Launched two symptom-screener lead campaigns on August 4, one for knee pain and one for back pain
- Reshot the landing page with the practice's own doctors
- Checked the GoHighLevel pipeline, the A2P-approved phone number, automations, and user assignments before launch
The numbers
| Period | Ad spend | Leads | Cost per lead |
|---|---|---|---|
| July 2025, old campaigns | $464 | 0 | None |
| August 2025, back pain campaign | $1,183 | 421 | $2.81 |
| August 2025, knee pain campaign | $1,189 | 299 | $3.98 |
| August 2025, all campaigns | $2,822 | 725 | $3.89 |
Meta Ads Manager figures, pulled September 14 to 16, 2026.

The rebuilt campaigns stopped spending after August, so this is a one-month result.
