Delhi IVF Chain: CPL ₹1,400 → ₹780 in 90 days via qualified-lead-first attribution
CPL ₹1,400 → ₹780
The starting position
IVF chain with 5 centres across Delhi NCR was running Meta ads at ₹1,400 CPL — 40%+ above the specialty benchmark. Previous agency had blended all 5 centres into single campaigns and optimised for raw form-fill events. Sales team reported that 55-60% of Meta leads were unqualified: women over 45 with no fertility diagnosis, tyre-kickers seeking price research, and general infertility awareness browsers who had no intent to book a consultation. Meta Ads Manager showed "good" CPL; the CRM showed a leaky funnel.
The root cause
Prism Spy scan identified 3 root causes: (1) Meta was optimising for form-fill events rather than CRM-verified qualified leads — training the algorithm to find the wrong people. (2) Targeting was too broad — no interest + behaviour layers, no age caps, no household-income overlays. (3) Landing pages had generic "Book Free Consultation" CTAs that pulled tyre-kickers as much as qualified prospects. Only 22% of Meta leads made it to consultation attendance.
What ICG built
Meta Catalyst IQ DCG framework applied: (D) Diagnose — 14 days of CRM lead reconciliation to build a qualified-lead baseline per centre. (C) Cost Optimise — Meta CAPI qualified-lead feedback loop enabled; Meta re-trained on CRM-verified qualified prospects instead of raw form fills. New campaigns segmented by centre + treatment type (IVF, ICSI, PGT, donor programs). Interest stacks built: Baby-and-Maternity + Pregnancy + Family-planning + Fertility, married women 28-45, top 25% income, excluding women with 3+ children in family status. Landing pages rebuilt for each centre with doctor credentials, real cost ranges (₹1L-₹3.5L), and 8-12 FAQ blocks. (G) Grow — after 60 days, scaled budget on top-performing centre × treatment combinations.

What changed,
measurably.
I came in expecting a sales pitch. I left with a written analysis of exactly why our IVF campaign CPL had risen 40% over the previous year. The root cause was something our previous agency had never flagged in 18 months.
