How We Tripled B2B Leads for Our Clients in Just 6 Months - Without Increasing Ad Spend
At Zimak.Co, we don’t do “more of the same.” We don’t promise to double your followers or hand you vague reports with rising charts and no real business impact.
What we do - is build systems. Systems that turn scattered marketing into predictable pipelines. That turn data into clarity. And turn anonymous clicks into high intent B2B leads.
This article is a behind-the-scenes breakdown of how we helped several clients across Europe without increasing their ad spend.
The Starting Point: No Central View, No Control
Sales teams use different pipelines. Leads get logged in someone’s Excel sheet. Campaigns are launched, but no one knows which ones actually work.
One of our clients, a fast-growing insurance group operating across Switzerland, had 3 landing pages in 3 languages, 12 independent agents, and zero centralized tracking.
They were spending thousands on Facebook, Instagram and Google Ads, but couldn’t say:
Where each lead came from
Who followed up
Or if anyone followed up at all
Step 1: Build a Central System Without Disrupting the Team
We didn’t start by selling them a fancy new CRM. We started by watching how they worked. Then we built the system around their existing habits. We used a combination of no-code tools, light backend automation, and custom-built integrations to:
Ingest leads from landing pages, forms, Ads and email campaigns
Automatically assign leads to specific agents
Track every interaction and touchpoint
Surface contact status, follow-ups, and outcomes on a central dashboard
In less than two weeks, the entire sales team could see everything.
Step 2: Rewrite the Message, Just Relevance
The second problem was messaging. It was to be polite textbook corporate. Generic promises. Abstract benefits. Each landing page became a conversation starter. Each ad was built around a question or challenge the target buyer was already facing.
The results?
Google ADS CTR: up to 27.3%
Cold email reply rate: 18%
Form conversion rate: tripled
And most importantly: better leads. People who actually wanted a call. Not just newsletter signups.
Step 3: Smart Automation. Not Spammy Sequences
Let’s be clear: automation isn’t about sending more emails. It’s about making sure the right person gets the right message at the right time with as little human effort as possible.
We built short, human-like follow-up sequences:
Initial email
Follow-up after 3 days if no reply
Notification to the sales rep if opened but not replied
Auto-close after 7 days of no response
We used Custom Email Server for reliable delivery. No Gmail promotions tab. Just high-inbox, human-sounding automation.
Step 4: Reporting That Actually Tells a Story
Our clients didn’t want to hear “10k views” or “2.4% engagement.” They wanted to know:
Where did this lead come from?
Which campaign delivered them?
Who followed up?
What happened next?
We built custom dashboards (in tools like Google Data Studio and even HubSpot for some clients), showing:
Source → Campaign → Form → Lead → Agent → Outcome
Drilldowns by language, country, or lead type
Visualizations they could actually act on
The Invisible Fix: Traffic Wasn’t the Problem. But It Was.
The leads weren’t broken. The traffic was. Campaigns were firing on all cylinders, but targeting the wrong crowd. Generic keywords, bloated audiences, forgettable copy.
We tore it down.
- On Google, we cut vague terms and focused on high-intent searches. Clicks dropped. Quality spiked.
- On LinkedIn, we rewrote every line to sound like it came from a human, not a brochure.
- On Meta, we didn’t sell. We reminded. Quietly. With retargeting that didn’t feel like retargeting.
The result? Better leads.
More calls from people who already understood the value.
The Result: +320% B2B Leads in 6 Months
With no increase in ad budget, we delivered:
3x more qualified B2B leads
2x more completed follow-ups
2.1x more closed deals within 5 days
55% reduction in lead response time
This wasn’t magic. It was structure. We didn’t spend more. We just stopped wasting what was already being spent.
Why It Worked
Most agencies sell “more.” More ads, more content, more outreach. But most businesses don’t need more. They need:
Clarity on what’s working
Simplicity for their team
Visibility across the pipeline
A system that doesn’t break when someone goes on vacation
That’s what we built. And that’s what Zimak.Co delivers.
