The Challenge:

Improving Lead Generation and Marketing Efficiency

Absolute Ablutions needed to reach more potential customers actively searching for portable toilet and sanitation services, while making its advertising investment more efficient.

With customers searching for a range of services including portable toilet hire, mobile toilets, event sanitation and construction site toilets, the challenge was to ensure the business was visible for relevant searches and able to turn that search activity into genuine enquiries.

The focus was therefore on:

  • Reaching customers with strong search intent
  • Generating relevant leads rather than simply website traffic
  • Improving the efficiency of the advertising spend
  • Reaching customers across relevant geographic areas
  • Creating a clearer path from search to enquiry
  • Measuring campaign activity against lead generation


My SME’s objective was to create a more focused and measurable customer acquisition approach that could help Absolute Ablutions generate a consistent flow of enquiries while improving the efficiency of its online marketing.

Our Business Growth Strategy

From Search Demand to Lead Generation

My SME developed a targeted Google Ads strategy around the services customers were actively searching for.

The approach combined high-intent keyword targeting, geographic targeting, relevant messaging, landing page optimisation and ongoing campaign refinement.

Step 1: Understanding Customer Demand

My SME identified the key services and search terms relevant to Absolute Ablutions, including portable toilet hire, mobile toilets, event sanitation and construction site toilets.

Step 2: Strategic Google Ads

Google Ads campaigns were structured around high-intent searches and targeted geographic areas across South Africa and selected African markets.

Step 3: Creating a Path to Enquiry

Landing pages and advertising messages were aligned with customer search intent to make it easier for relevant visitors to understand the service and enquire.

Step 4: Improving Campaign Efficiency

Campaign performance was continually monitored, with keyword targeting, bids and search terms refined to improve traffic quality and reduce acquisition costs.

Step 5: Measuring Lead Generation

Clicks, CPC, CTR, conversion rates and leads were tracked to understand how effectively the campaign was turning search activity into enquiries.

The Results

Generating More Leads While Improving Efficiency

The campaign produced measurable improvements in both lead generation and advertising efficiency.

From R44,635 in Google Ads spend, Absolute Ablutions generated:

  • 6,508 clicks
  • 416 leads
  • R6.86 average CPC
  • 13.34% CTR
  • 6.39% on-site conversion rate
