Case Study: Return on Ad Spend for a Purpose-Driven Event

How we helped a coach-driven business boost event signups with a low-budget Facebook campaign.


🧠 The Client

Mind Prosperity is a coaching and emotional intelligence education business focused on helping individuals and organisations transform from within. They regularly host live events and workshops to teach emotional mastery, leadership, and well-being.


🎯 The Challenge

The team was planning a live local event, but with a limited marketing budget, they were relying mainly on organic social media to drive ticket sales.

With time running out, they approached Leap Digital to explore paid ads as a way to create urgency and boost visibility.


🔧 The Solution

We kept things lean and focused.

  • Ad Creative Design:
    We created clean, emotionally resonant static visuals that matched their brand, designed to stop scrolls and connect quickly with the audience.

  • Campaign Structure:
    We launched two ad sets with minor variations in copy and targeting, aimed at audiences most aligned with the event’s theme.

  • Low-Risk Budget:
    The entire campaign was built to deliver results with minimal spend, allowing us to test quickly, learn fast, and optimise lightly.


📈 The Outcome

Within days of launching, signups started increasing, and the campaign delivered a 16x return on the total ad spend.

Not just more traffic, paying attendees.

This reinforced a core truth we teach our clients:

You don’t need a massive budget to run profitable ads, just the right message, the right audience, and the right system.


💬 What the Client Said

“Marketing isn’t just about selling or providing information; it’s about capturing the hearts and emotions of your audience. This is exactly what Leap Digital excels at. Their work resonates emotionally with people. I highly recommend them.”
