Account Summary

During April 2026, the 2 Turf Guys campaigns generated 282 leads across 3 Florida markets at an average cost of $20.21 per lead, spending a total of $5,700.25 across two ad accounts (2GTT and 2 Turf Guys). The campaigns reached approximately 61,653 accounts with 148,478 impressions.

This month saw an ad account transition — we moved from the original "2 Turf Guys" account to the new "2GTT" account mid-month. This transition period caused a temporary dip in lead volume as the new account's pixel needed time to re-optimize. The "ALL MARKETS Copy 2" campaign remained the top performer at $17.74 CPL, and two new campaigns launched late April (GTL 4-26 and GTL 4-27) are already showing promise.

Analysis

Insights & Recommendations

Account Transition Caused the Dip — Not Performance

The drop from 331 to 282 leads isn't a performance issue — it's a structural one. We transitioned from the "2 Turf Guys" ad account to the new "2GTT" account mid-April. During the transition, the new pixel needed time to exit its learning phase and re-optimize delivery. This is temporary. The new account is already stabilizing, and the late-April campaigns (GTL 4-27 at $16.45 CPL) prove the system is finding its groove.

Cancellation Rate Dropped 22% — Confirmation Sequence Working

Great news: the cancellation rate dropped from 24.1% in March to 18.7% in April. That's a 22% improvement. The updated appointment confirmation SMS sequence we implemented is clearly reducing no-shows. Tampa's cancel rate dropped from 28.7% to 16.1% — the biggest improvement across all markets.

Bradenton/Sarasota Exploded — Now Your #1 Market

Market 2 went from 77 leads in March to 140 leads in April — an 82% increase. It now accounts for 53.8% of all leads. The "ALL MARKETS" campaigns are naturally finding more efficient delivery in this corridor. This is a sign that the Bradenton/Sarasota area has strong demand and less competition in the auction.

What We're Optimizing Going Forward

Here's what we're working on to bring performance back up and exceed March numbers in May:

  • Stabilizing the new ad account: The 2GTT account is now past its learning phase. The late-April campaigns are already hitting $16-17 CPL. May should see full optimization as the pixel has enough conversion data to work with.
  • Rebalancing market distribution: Tampa dropped to 29% of leads. We're launching Tampa-specific campaigns on the new account to bring that market back up while maintaining the Bradenton/Sarasota momentum.
  • Converting 124 opt-in leads: There are 124 leads sitting in opt-in that haven't booked. We're implementing a re-engagement sequence to bring them back into the funnel.
  • Scaling the winning campaigns: GTL ALL MARKETS Copy 2 ($17.74 CPL) and GTL 4-27 ($16.45 CPL) are the clear winners. We're increasing budget allocation to these while testing new creative variations.

Looking Ahead
