Often the offer, not the targeting or the design, decides whether an ad works. A clear, valuable, low-risk first step gets people to act.
Offer types that work
| Offer | Good for | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Free consultation or assessment | Clinics, interiors, legal, finance | Free smile assessment |
| Low-cost trial | Gyms, classes, salons | 3-day gym pass for ₹99 |
| Price-led offer | Home services, food | AC servicing from ₹499 |
| Bundle | Salons, restaurants | Haircut + spa at ₹1,199 |
| Free guide or checklist | B2B, education | Free GST compliance checklist |
| Limited slots | Events, workshops | Only 20 seats this Sunday |
Make offers specific
“Best service” is not an offer. “Root canal in one visit, from ₹4,500” is.

Test offers
Run two offers with the same creative and compare cost per customer, not just cost per lead.
