SETTERS (touring lectures, Tomsk): 650 leads at $3.44, $16,282 revenue, 627% ROMI

The task

The SETTERS agency was taking its speakers to Tomsk for offline lectures. The task — collect leads and sell tickets to the event with paid traffic. The specifics of an offline event: the audience is limited to one city, and enrollment has to close in a short window before the lecture date — there is no room for long tests with the budget.

What we did

Targeted ads for the touring lectures with a total budget of $2,239. Traffic went to a lead followed by a ticket purchase.
