Achieving a $38 CPL for 
VFA Learning’s Nursing course

In collaboration with VFA Learning, a seasoned Geelong-based RTO, we orchestrated a dynamic advertising strategy to tackle two primary objectives. Our focus was firstly on intensifying lead generation for VFA's esteemed Nursing course, by emphasising a high conversion rate to enrolment. Simultaneously, a targeted Brand Awareness campaign sought to fortify VFA Learning's presence in Geelong.

The goal was clear: attract regional leads willing to travel to the Geelong campus at an affordable cost per lead and ultimately cost per registration. Navigating this, our approach showcased the breadth of VFA's course offerings, with a spotlight on Nursing. Meticulous optimisation ensured cost-effective lead generation, while the Brand Awareness initiative fostered trust with locals.

The results were impactful — we saw increased leads for Nursing, a solid brand footprint in Geelong, and a successful balance between regional reach and cost efficiency. Our tailored strategy not only addressed VFA Learning's specific challenge but also laid the groundwork for sustained growth and recognition.

A dual-channel approach

To enhance visibility and creative optimisation, we created a dedicated landing page for the Nursing course. This facilitated real-time campaign monitoring, but also empowered us to conduct impactful split tests on imagery and copy. This dual-channel approach, coupled with data-driven insights from the campaign-specific landing page, ensured that each lead was acquired with efficiency and impact. In pursuit of VFA Learning's objectives, our lead generation campaign delivered stellar outcomes for the Nursing course, generating 926 leads and driving 10,158 highly relevant traffic at a cost-effective CPL of $38.73. Meta emerged as the top performer, contributing 65% of the leads, while Google showcased a compelling CPL of $33.52, ensuring a well-rounded impact across platforms.

Always optimising

Our campaign for VFA Learning's Nursing course achieved remarkable success through strategic optimisations, consistently surpassing industry benchmarks. The introduction of a dedicated Unbounce page allowed for insightful split tests, ensuring our creative elements resonated optimally with the audience. Internally, a meticulous campaign retro identified top-performing assets, seamlessly avoiding creative fatigue by incorporating new overlays and championing video creative. Reactivating META lead ad forms and introducing engaging video story ads, based on performance insights, demonstrated the campaign's adaptability and resonance.
