Before vs. After: The Numbers

Here’s where Baku Lounge started, the goals we set together, and the results we actually delivered.

Menu & Profile Visits (6 Days) ~50 visits 300 visits 544 visits

Money Wasted on Wrong Audience Significant Minimal 0% wasted

What This Means for You

Before working with us, Baku Lounge was spending money on people who clicked by accident and never came back. We cut the cost of getting a real visitor by 82% and made sure every penny went toward people who actually wanted to eat there.

The People Behind the Results

Software doesn’t build strategy — people do. Here’s how our team planned and delivered these results for Baku Lounge.

EA

Ekrem Abdulkerim

Lead Performance Strategist

“By default, Meta shows your ads to whoever is cheapest to reach — usually random people scrolling who will never visit. We set up strict rules so the system only spent money reaching people who were actually looking for somewhere to eat.”

ED

Enver Demir

Creative Director

“A good ad doesn’t just look nice — it filters. We showed local prices and the restaurant location in the first 3 seconds. If someone wasn’t in the area or interested, they’d scroll past without costing us a thing.”

How We Did It, Step by Step

A clear breakdown of the strategy we used to protect ad spend and bring in real customers.

1

The 3-Second Filter

We created video ads that showed Baku Lounge’s location and menu prices right away. People who weren’t nearby or interested scrolled past before the ad cost anything.

Why This Works

When uninterested people skip early, they don’t cost you money. That means your entire budget goes toward people who are actually likely to visit.

2

Retargeting the Most Interested

We tracked everyone who watched the full video — they clearly wanted to know more. We saved these people into a separate list and showed them follow-up ads, because someone who watches the whole video is much more likely to actually visit.

Why This Works

Instead of showing follow-up ads to everyone, we only spent money on the people who already showed real interest. This keeps costs low and results high.

3

Growing the Budget Without Raising Costs

Once Meta learned what a “good visitor” looked like, we increased the ad budget by 17.1% in just 48 hours. Because the system already knew who to target, the cost per click stayed perfectly flat at 0.31 PLN.

Why This Works

Usually, spending more on ads makes each click more expensive. But when the system is trained on the right audience first, it can find more of those people without raising costs.

The “Elite Filter” Funnel

Stage 1: Ad Views (18,590) Total Reach & Creative Filter Hook Stage 2: Engaged Diners (1,200) Watched 100% of Video (High Interest) Stage 3: Menu & Profile Visits (544) Cost: 0.31 PLN Per Customer Visit

Zero Budget Wasted Outside Business Hours

We didn’t just target the right people — we targeted the right hours. Here’s how we used real foot-traffic data to schedule every ad.

📊 Google Popular Times Data

We analyzed when Baku Lounge gets the most foot traffic. The data shows peak hours between 6 PM – 2 AM, with Friday and Saturday nights being the busiest.

🕐 Operating Hours = Ad Hours

Baku Lounge is open 12 PM – 2 AM daily. We matched ad scheduling exactly to these hours — no impressions were served at 4 AM or 8 AM when nobody would visit.

💡 Why This Matters

Most advertisers run their ads 24/7 and let the algorithm decide when to show them. The problem? You end up paying for impressions at 3 AM when no one is going to walk into your restaurant. We aligned every ad dollar with the hours Baku Lounge was actually open and busy — not a single impression was wasted outside of activity hours.
