🧾 Facebook Ads Case Study – Viking Capital


🔹 Client

Viking Capital — a multifamily real estate syndication firm helping accredited investors diversify into real estate opportunities.

🎯 Goal

Reduce cost-per-lead for a new webinar promotion while generating qualified investor leads. Secondary KPI: signed investment contracts.

🚧 Challenge

The previous marketing firm delivered leads at $100+ each, which was unsustainable. The budget was capped at $30,000 over 10 days.

🧠 Solution

Built Lookalike Audiences from past investor lists
Ran Lead Objective campaigns with Ad Set & Campaign Budget Optimization
Optimized for the Lead event with a 7-day click attribution
Tested both long- and short-form copy highlighting deal terms
Used rapid 24-hour testing cycles to cut underperforming ads fast

📈 Results

🔻 Cost-per-lead reduced by 60%+ (down to $40)
📊 8x ROAS achieved with a $200K signed investor contract
🏆 Viking Capital’s most successful Facebook Ads campaign at that time

👤 My Role

Led full campaign strategy, audience building, ad copy development, testing, and optimization.

📌 Takeaway

With precise targeting and fast testing, we scaled investor lead generation profitably — cutting CPL in half and closing high-value contracts.
