Before you run your first ad

A simple checklist to connect your offer, your landing page and your follow-up before spending on advertising.

Start with one objective. Decide whether a campaign should produce an enquiry, a purchase or another meaningful action. Choose a conversion that your business can actually track.

Make the offer easy to understand. Your creative, landing page and enquiry form should tell the same story. A visitor should know what you do, who it is for and what happens next.

Check the journey on a phone. Open the ad destination, read the page and submit the form yourself. Confirm that the enquiry reaches the right person.

Plan the follow-up. An advertising platform cannot compensate for an unmonitored inbox. Give every new lead a clear owner and a practical response process.

Start with a budget you can afford to test. Review the quality of enquiries alongside cost. These steps improve measurement; they do not guarantee sales.
