For businesses spending $100K+ per month on lead generation

Lead Generation Services for Businesses Spending $100,000 Per Month or More

Most lead generation agencies just send you more leads. From our Ottawa base, LGG Media builds the infrastructure that connects your ad campaigns to your CRM, so the algorithm learns which leads become customers and spends your budget finding more of them.

The Core Problem

Why Lead Generation Campaigns Fail to Produce Revenue at Scale

A lead is not revenue. It is the start of a process that produces revenue only if the lead was qualified to begin with. Most campaigns are measured on cost per lead, which tells you what you paid for a form submission, and nothing about whether that person became a customer.

Bad numbers, bad decisions

Google reports 80 conversions. Your CRM shows 100. The campaign looks like it is underperforming, so spend gets cut and revenue drops. The problem was never the campaign. It was that no single system reconciled what the platforms report against what the business actually closed.

Targets set below what you can afford

If you can profitably acquire a customer at $1,000 but campaigns are set to an $800 target, the algorithm restricts itself to the demand it can reach within that limit. The customers exist at $1,000; your campaigns never reach them, because nobody calculated the number from your real margins and close rate.

Both problems trace to the same root cause: the revenue data never informed the campaign decisions. The platforms optimized toward whatever signal they were given, and that signal stopped at the form submission.

KPI Definition

Three Lead Generation KPIs Defined Before Any Campaign Goes Live

Every engagement starts with three numbers calculated from your CRM data before a single campaign launches. These are your numbers, taken from your margins and your sales team's actual close rate.

1

Cost per qualified inbound call

The most you can spend acquiring a qualified phone inquiry and still profit, from your close rate, average deal value, and cost of sales over the last 12 months. A hard ceiling, not a directional target.

2

Cost per sales-qualified lead

What your sales team can spend working a lead through the pipeline at a positive return, derived from your SQL-to-close rate and average deal value. Once CRM data flows back, the algorithm finds people who look like your best leads, not your most abundant ones.

3

Cost per new customer

The all-in cost at which your business grows profitably: ad spend, cost of sales, and onboarding against average first-year revenue. With enough CRM volume, this becomes the primary target.

Bidding Strategy

SQL-Based Bidding, Not Cost Per Lead

Cost per lead measures the top of the funnel and has no relationship to what happens below it. If five form fills produce one SQL and a form fill costs $100, your cost per SQL is $500, and that is the number that matters. When the algorithm receives SQL data from your CRM, it can pay up to $500 for a form fill that is likely to qualify, and outbid every competitor for the traffic that actually converts.

The infrastructure that makes this possible, connecting your CRM, payment processor, and phone system so revenue matches within a 5% variance before launch, is covered on the attribution tracking page and built on Hyros.

Scaling Volume

Scaling Volume Without Raising Cost Per Customer

When a client needs more volume, raising the bid target is the last move, not the first. Three levers are checked in order.

Step 1

Budget utilization & bid calibration

If campaigns are not spending the full budget, the constraint is the bid target, not the market. The target is re-evaluated against the real conversion rate, accounting for the gap between platform-reported and CRM-recorded conversions.

Step 2

Landing page conversion rate

A higher click-to-lead ratio produces more leads at the same cost per click, lowering cost per lead without touching the bid. Copy, form length, page speed, and mobile layout are tested first.

Step 3

Bid target adjustment

Only when CRO is exhausted and more volume is still needed is the bid raised, with the cost-per-customer tradeoff calculated from your KPIs and presented as a business decision before any change goes live.

Client Results

Lead Generation Results Across Verticals

Each result followed the same sequence: attribution verified against CRM revenue before launch, KPI targets set from the client's own history, and SQL-based bidding once the data met the threshold. Full stories are in the case studies. Dealer groups and franchise networks with many locations can see how we run them on our franchise PPC agency page.

Engagement Criteria

Who This Lead Generation Engagement Is Built For

You're a fit if

  • Spending $100,000+ per month on lead generation in the US.
  • A CRM that records individual transactions against identifiable lead records.
  • A sales cycle longer than 24 hours, where revenue happens after the first form or call.
  • Generating lead volume while cost per customer stays flat or rises.

How the engagement works

  • Every lead is generated directly through paid ads on Google, Meta, or Microsoft Advertising, never bought or resold.
  • Campaigns optimize for cost per SQL or cost per revenue dollar, never cost per lead alone.
  • Campaign management and attribution are one integrated engagement; they cannot be separated.
  • It begins with an attribution audit that decides whether the investment makes sense before terms.
FAQ

FAQ About Lead Generation Advertising

What is the difference between lead generation and lead buying?

Lead buying means purchasing contact records from a vendor who resells the same leads to multiple businesses. Lead generation means running your own paid campaigns to generate leads exclusively for your business. Every lead in an LGG-managed account is generated directly through paid advertising, none are purchased or shared with competitors.

Why is cost per lead the wrong metric?

It measures only the top of the funnel. A campaign with 100 leads at $50 looks better than one with 40 leads at $120, but if the first closes 5 customers and the second closes 18, the second produces more revenue at a lower cost per customer. Cost per acquired customer, from your CRM, is what determines whether a campaign works.

How does offline conversion tracking work for lead gen?

When a prospect submits a form, the Google Click ID from that session is stored in the CRM lead record. When that lead becomes a customer, the data layer reads the stored Click ID and sends the revenue event back to Google as an offline conversion. Google then finds more users who match that paying customer. The same runs in parallel for Meta via the Conversions API.

How long does setup take before ads go live?

Campaigns go live on day three. Day one deploys attribution across landing pages and connects the CRM, payment processor, and phone system. Day two covers campaign structure, ad copy, and landing pages against the KPI targets. A CRM needing custom API work beyond the standard Hyros connectors extends the window by the build-and-test time.

What is the minimum ad spend?

We manage lead generation accounts spending $100,000 or more per month, for businesses with a market big enough to grow 5x and the ambition to capture it.

Who owns the ad accounts and CRM data at the end?

Google, Meta, and Microsoft ad accounts stay owned by the client throughout. The Hyros account is set up under the client's billing and owned by the client. All CRM records, attribution data, and offline conversion configurations belong to the client and keep working after the engagement ends.
