PROJECT OVERVIEW

From Broken Ads to a Franchise Growth Engine

FEB 2024 — PRESENT Ongoing · Meta Paid Ads + SEO

Tealogy — one of India's fastest-growing kulhad chai franchises — came to us with a real problem. Their Facebook and Instagram ads were running, money was being spent, but good franchise leads just weren't coming in.

We rebuilt their whole Meta advertising setup from scratch and paired it with an SEO push. One clear goal: get serious franchise inquiries from people who are actually ready to invest, not just random form fills.

ABOUT THE CLIENT

India's Fastest-Growing Kulhad Chai Franchise

Tealogy started in 2018 as a tea café chain built around authentic kulhad chai. Their franchise model is made for everyday entrepreneurs — no royalty fees, no fancy chef needed, low starting investment, and full setup support from day one. When we started working with them in February 2024, they had 140+ cities and 320+ outlets built mostly through word of mouth. The digital side needed work.

THE PROBLEM

Ads Were Running. Results Weren't.

Tealogy had a great brand, a solid model, and big plans. But their Meta ads were quietly failing — reaching the wrong people, wasting budget, and pulling in leads from people with no real intention of investing. Their expansion plans were stuck.

Reaching the Wrong People

Ads were going to regular chai drinkers, not people actively looking to open a franchise in their city.

Leads That Went Nowhere

Lots of form fills, but nobody converting. The pipeline looked busy on paper but produced no real franchise partners.

Budget Getting Wasted

Spend kept going up month after month but results weren't improving. Every rupee was returning less and less.

Our Approach

One Goal. One Strategy. Franchise Leads at Scale.

01

Built the Audience from the Ground Up

We stopped targeting everyone and started targeting the right people. Intent-based audience groups built from behavioural signals, interest stacking, and lookalike models — so ads reached entrepreneurs actually researching franchise opportunities, not just anyone scrolling Instagram.

02

Launched Proper Lead Generation Campaigns

Full-funnel Facebook and Instagram campaigns with creatives made specifically for franchise buyers. Every ad spoke to the entrepreneur, not the tea lover. No royalty. Low investment. High returns. Full support — that's what people saw.

03

City-Level Targeting

We put spend exactly where it made sense — cities with real franchise potential. No more wasted impressions on people who could never realistically open an outlet in those markets.

04

SEO — Getting Found on Google Too

Alongside paid ads, we built Tealogy's organic presence on Google. Optimised their pages for high-intent franchise keywords so they show up when people search "best tea franchise in India" — without spending a rupee on ads for that traffic.

05

Kept Improving Every Week

Weekly performance reviews via Meta Business Suite — tracking cost per lead, click rates, and form completions. Kept tweaking creatives and audiences so results got better over time, not just stayed flat.
