[Case Study] How a Facebook Messenger Ad Campaign 10x’d ROI For a Snow Plowing Business

It’s the third installment of our Messenger Marketing mini-series here on the podcast, and today I’m speaking with one of my FB ADmanager and ROI Club students. Steve Loiselle is a former police offer who decided to start his own Facebook Ads management business, and in the less than a year of doing so, he’s already seeing amazing results (and he’s just getting started).

I asked Steve to come on the show to share a case study of a recent Facebook Messenger campaign he ran for a local snow plowing business, and you’re going to hear how a $500 ad spend for that campaign resulting in between $30k and $50k of revenue for his client. Not a bad ROI!

In fact, this campaign worked so well that Steve’s client had way more business than he could handle, and the business owner needed to hire additional help to service the number of new customers he got as a result of the ad campaign Steve set up and managed.

You’re going to hear the story of how Steve got this client, his targeting strategy for the ads and the use of scarcity in his offer. Plus he’ll be breaking down his entire Facebook Messenger ads funnel, as well as how he leveraged his Messenger subscriber list in a very unique way that led to 20 more sales for his client - with no additional ad spend.
