Insurance
Quote requests that turn into bound policies, with the tracking to tell the difference.

Booked consultations from people with assets to move, in the states you're licensed in.
We run on the channels that actually move revenue.
Sound familiar?
Where it usually goes wrong.
The consumer finance accounts we take over tend to share the same problems. None of them are fixed by spending more.
Cost per lead looks fine. Cost per qualified lead doesn't.
National lenders outbid you on every search that matters.
Tracking counts form fills, not loan-ready contacts.
Compliance makes most agency playbooks unusable.
What we do
How we work with consumer finance.
Search built by intent
Three tiers of keywords: high-intent buyers, niche segments like self-employed or investment refinance, and competitor conquesting against the big names.
Qualified-lead tracking
Conversion tracking integrated with your CRM so bidding optimizes for verified, loan-ready contacts instead of inquiries.
Compliant copy and pages
Ad copy, extensions, and landing pages that pass review and still win the click on trust, speed, and accessibility.
Scaling by state
Budget goes up only in campaigns that keep delivering cheap qualified leads, monitored weekly against the lenders you're competing with.
If you've read this far, the first call will tell you the rest.
How we do it
Here's how we do it.
Get to know your business
Your numbers, your margins, your customers, and what's already been tried. We don't touch a campaign until we know what a customer is worth to you.
Build the system across channels
Ads, creative, landing pages, tracking, and follow-up built to work as one, so nothing falls between them and every lead is accounted for.
Launch, measure, scale
Live fast, judged against the one number we agreed on, and scaled only where it holds. What doesn't pay gets cut, not defended.
Tracking built for the number you answer for
Cost per qualified lead.
Not cost per form fill. We wire tracking into your CRM so every dollar is judged on verified, loan-ready contacts, and we train the bidding on that data. It's the only number that survives a long payback window.
Accurate data from first touch to final sale. Not a dashboard you have to interpret, and never a report about reach.

What we did
We audited and rebuilt the account from the ground up: CRM-integrated tracking that counted only qualified leads, a three-tier keyword structure with competitor conquesting, new ad copy and extensions, Target CPA bidding trained on CRM data, and 250 negative keywords to cut low-intent traffic. Society's ads began outranking Rocket Mortgage and Fairway on competitor and non-branded searches.

Questions
What founders ask first.
We're regulated. Can you work inside that?
Yes. Copy, extensions, and landing pages are built to pass review from the start, not bolted on after. If something can't be said, we find the version that can.
Do you need access to our CRM?
Yes. Qualified-lead tracking depends on it. We connect conversion tracking to the stage in your CRM that means a real, verified contact, so the platforms optimize toward that instead of raw inquiries.
How long before qualified leads get cheaper?
The audit and rebuild come first, because bidding on bad data only gets you more bad data faster. Cost per qualified lead moves once the tracking is honest, and it keeps moving as the bidding learns from your CRM.
Which channels do you run?
Google Search is the core, because that's where intent lives in lending. Meta where it earns its place. We'll tell you on the first call what makes sense for your products and states.
Is there a long-term contract?
No long lock-in. We earn next month by performing this month, and we keep clients because the numbers hold, not because they're stuck.
Ready when you are
Outrank the national lenders on the searches that matter.
Apply with your numbers. On the first call we'll look at your account, your tracking, and your states, and tell you straight whether we can bring cost per qualified lead down.
