— Why work with us
What’s Different About Working With GrowthX Media.
01
One Senior Specialist
The person who audits your account builds, tests and optimises it. Nothing is passed down to a junior.
02
Closed Deals, Not Cheap Leads
A ₹134 lead that closes a ₹25 L project beats a ₹10 lead that never answers. We track to the sale.
03
Creative Is the Main Lever
Most agencies change audiences. We change hooks — that’s where our cost-per-lead drops came from.
04
Speed-to-Lead Built In
WhatsApp API routing and automated qualification ship with every campaign, not as an add-on.
05
Four Numbers That Matter
Spend, leads, cost per lead and closed revenue — in one dashboard, every week.
06
No Mark-up on Ad Spend
You pay Meta and Google directly. Screenshots from Ads Manager are available on request.

₹3.5 Lakh of Spend, 3,899 Industrial Buyers.
CNC machinery is a long, high-value sale to a tiny pool of buyers. Consumer-style targeting burns budget — so we built it differently.
- Lookalikes rebuilt every quarter from closed-deal data, not form fills
- Separate ad sets for quotation requests and qualified enquiries
- 25 ad sets in parallel, so budget always had a proven winner to move into

— Blog FAQs
Questions About the Blog.
How the numbers are collected, how to use them, and what we write about next.
Where do the numbers on this lead generation blog come from?
Every number comes from our own client ad accounts, read straight from Ads Manager. We show account averages or totals for the period we mention, not a single good day. Client names are masked, and screenshots are available on request.
Can I use these cost per lead benchmarks for my business?
Use them as a reference point, not a target. Your cost per lead depends on your offer, budget, market and how fast your team follows up. If you want a number for your own business, the free ad account audit compares your account with the closest case study.
Do you write about my industry?
We write about the industries we run ads for: real estate, clinics, B2B manufacturers, e-commerce, retail, automotive and more. If your industry is missing, send us a question on WhatsApp and it may become the next post.
How often do you publish new posts?
We publish regularly, usually a few times a week. New posts appear at the top of this page as soon as they go live, and each one links to the case studies and results it draws from.
Are these posts a promise of results?
No. They show what happened in real accounts and what we changed. No responsible agency can guarantee lead numbers. What we can promise is that the numbers are real and the method is explained.
