Ivana Tomisic Studio
High-end brand identity & packaging design studio. Relied entirely on referrals with zero paid traffic. At just $3k/mo in ad spend, we engineered a lead machine that hit 244 inbound leads per month — with a 4% site visitor-to-lead conversion rate and 198 of those leads signing on as clients.
Ivana's studio was thriving creatively but invisible online. 100% of clients came through word-of-mouth. The website had no pixel, no call-to-action hierarchy, and no retargeting in place. Cold visitors hit a beautiful portfolio — then bounced. Bounce rate was 84%. There was no system to capture or nurture intent.
We led with outcome-first messaging: "Your brand on shelf, looking like it belongs next to the best." Used Ivana's editorial photography (high-fashion, Vogue-adjacent aesthetic) as the visual hook — content that stopped the scroll because it looked nothing like a typical agency ad. Instagram Stories & Reels were the primary placements: where design-conscious brand founders actually spend their time.
Built a 3-step funnel: Ad → "Free Brand Clarity Session" landing page → Discovery call booking via Calendly. On Google Search, we targeted high-intent terms competitors were ignoring: "luxury packaging design studio," "premium brand identity designer," "high-end label design." These keywords had low competition and buyers who already knew they wanted premium quality — not a $200 Fiverr logo.
At just $3,000/mo in ad spend, the funnel drove ~6,100 monthly site visitors. Of those, 4% converted to leads — generating 244 inbound inquiries every month. From those 244 leads, 198 converted to signed clients or active projects — an 81% lead-to-close rate made possible by the hyper-targeted audience and the pre-qualified nature of discovery-call traffic. Cost per lead landed at $12.30. For a studio charging $2,800–$6,000 per project, every single dollar of ad spend returned multiples.
