Strategy-first. Data-obsessed. Growth-driven.

I don't just run ads — I build lead machines and growth systems.

I'm a data-driven digital marketing professional with 9+ years of experience turning ad budgets into measurable business outcomes. My specialty lies in real estate performance marketing — managing multi-channel campaigns across Meta, Google, LinkedIn, and third-party partners that serve both local Bangladeshi and Gulf NRB markets simultaneously.

At Sanmar Properties, I oversee the full digital marketing function: from campaign strategy and media buying to GA4/GTM tracking, Looker Studio dashboards, n8n marketing automation, and cross-functional alignment with sales and call-center teams. I don't just generate leads — I optimize the entire funnel to maximize SQL conversion.

My technical edge includes server-side tracking (95%+ data accuracy), AI-integrated workflows, and Python-powered analytics. I believe every marketing decision should be backed by clean, reliable data.

🏢 Industry & Client

Real Estate / Property Development — Sanmar Properties Limited is a major residential property developer in Chittagong, Bangladesh. They required strategic social media growth to build brand awareness, establish thought leadership, and drive qualified leads through organic engagement.

⚠️ Problem Identified

  • Stagnant Growth: Page was plateaued at 42K followers with no growth strategy
  • Inconsistent Content: No content calendar or posting schedule — sporadic, unplanned posts
  • Low Engagement: Minimal interaction on existing posts; no systematic audience engagement mechanism
  • Content Gap: No UGC (User-Generated Content) strategy; relying only on in-house assets

🎯 Strategy & Execution

Content Calendar: Developed structured weekly posting schedule across all platforms (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn) with themed content blocks.
  • UGC Content Strategy: Shifted to user-generated and lifestyle videos showing properties in real-world context — testimonials, walkthroughs, community events
  • Consistent Posting: Implemented weekly cadence (minimum 3-4 posts/week) with platform-optimized formats
  • Manual Engagement: Manually inviting engaged users from boosted posts to follow the main page — targeting hot audience signals
  • Platform Diversification: Expanded presence to YouTube (property tours, developer interviews) and LinkedIn (corporate updates, market insights)
  • Cross-Platform Amplification: Repurposing single pieces of content across all channels for maximum reach

✅ Results Achieved

Starting Followers42,000
Current Followers83,000
Total Growth+41,000
Key Result: 98% follower growth achieved through disciplined content strategy, consistent posting schedule, and strategic audience engagement — proving that organic growth at scale is possible without heavy paid promotion reliance.

🏢 Industry & Context

Real Estate / Property Sales — Mid-sized real estate developer managing multiple property projects. Primary challenge: converting website traffic into high-quality leads that sales team could actually work with.

⚠️ Problems Identified

  • Low Lead Quality: Campaign was generating volume, but most leads were unqualified or tire-kickers
  • High CPL: Cost per lead was elevated; ROI was questionable
  • Inconsistent Quality: No standardized lead qualification criteria — sales team wasting time on low-intent leads
  • Inefficient Funnel: No intermediate qualification step between ad click and sales handoff

🎯 Strategy & Solution

Meta Lead Campaign Redesign: Complete restructure from audience targeting to lead qualification form.
  • Audience Segmentation: Split targeting into distinct buyer personas (first-time buyers, investors, corporate bulk buyers) with separate campaign sets
  • Lookalike Audience: Built 1% and 5% lookalike audiences from existing customer list — prioritizing proven buyer signals
  • Interest Layering: Layered interests (real estate + investment + property development + financing) to narrow to serious intent audience
  • Creative Testing: Rotated 15+ ad variations testing headlines, visuals, copy angles — identified top 3 performers
  • Landing Page Optimization: Redesigned landing pages for mobile conversion; reduced form friction (3 questions vs. 8)
  • Lead Qualification Form: Implemented smart form with conditional fields — captured intent signals early (budget, timeline, property type interest)
  • Weekly Optimization: Weekly performance reviews; killed underperforming audience sets; reallocated budget to winners

✅ Results Delivered

Lead Volume↑ Significantly
CPL↓ Reduced
Qualified Lead Ratio↑ Improved
Site Visits↑ More Traffic
Key Impact: By implementing intelligent audience targeting and lead qualification early in the funnel, we reduced wasted ad spend on unqualified traffic while simultaneously increasing sales team efficiency — fewer leads to work, but higher close rate.

Campaign Overview

Green Park is Sanmar's flagship Chittagong residential project. Campaign ran 7 waves across 10 months with simultaneous targeting of local buyers and Gulf (UAE, Saudi, Qatar) NRB investors — two distinctly different buyer psychologies requiring separate messaging and creative.

Dual Audience Strategy: BD audience targeted on affordability & location convenience. Gulf NRB audience targeted on investment return, project credentials, and property show events.

Execution Highlights

  • Separate ad accounts/campaigns for BD and Gulf audience sets
  • Content production coordinated in-house (৳1.37L content budget)
  • Property Show tie-ins in Dubai (April & October) amplified Gulf pipeline
  • Call center lead validation within 24 hours; SQL feedback loop to optimize targeting
  • Month-on-month budget rightsizing based on CPL performance

Results & Learning

March was the highest-lead month (414 leads) at $3.27 CPL while November delivered the lowest CPL ($1.66) through hyper-targeted retargeting of warm audiences built over 8 months.

Key Learning: Audience maturation across a long-running campaign significantly reduces CPL. By month 8+, retargeting alone delivered 40% of MQL at 35% lower CPL.

Challenge

Artemis Fashion was running Meta Ads with a 1.5× ROAS — barely above break-even and unprofitable after COGS and overheads. Campaigns lacked proper audience structure, creative testing, and conversion tracking accuracy.

What I Fixed

  • Rebuilt campaign structure: TOF (Broad) → MOF (Retarget) → BOF (Hot Audience)
  • Installed Facebook Pixel + CAPI for accurate server-side conversion tracking
  • A/B tested 12 ad creatives; identified 3 top performers
  • Shifted budget to winning ad sets; killed underperformers weekly
  • Optimized landing pages for conversion — reduced friction at checkout

Execution Timeline

Week 1–2: Full audit, pixel fix, CAPI setup, structure rebuild

Week 3–4: Creative testing phase — 12 variations launched

Month 2: Scale winning ad sets; audience layering and lookalike expansion

Month 3+: ROAS sustained at 7–8× with monthly optimization

Result

+433% ROAS improvement — from 1.5× to 8× — transforming unprofitable ad spend into a reliable revenue channel. Achieved through tracking accuracy, creative optimization, and disciplined budget allocation.

  • WhatsApp Tracking: WhatsApp inquiry button clicks as conversion signal

🏢 Business & Industry

eCommerce (Fashion & Lifestyle) — Artemis is a fashion & lifestyle brand experiencing rapid growth through Meta Ads. Challenge: sustaining performance while scaling requires continuous creative innovation.

⚠️ Problems Identified

  • Ad Fatigue: Same creative assets used repeatedly resulted in declining effectiveness
  • Declining CTR: Click-through rates dropped as audience saw same ads repeatedly
  • Inconsistent Refreshes: Creative updates were ad-hoc, not systematic
  • No Testing Process: No structured methodology for evaluating which creative elements work
  • Scaling Bottleneck: Hard to scale when performance depends on a few winning ads

🎯 Creative Diversification Framework

Objective: Build a scalable creative system that maintains performance while supporting sustainable growth.

Creative Formats Tested:

  • Static Image Ads (product-focused, lifestyle, minimalist)
  • Lifestyle Photography (aspirational, context-based)
  • UGC-style Content (authentic, relatable, user-generated feel)
  • Short-form Video Ads (15-30 sec product demos, transitions)
  • Product Demonstrations (how-to, use cases, styling tips)
  • Customer Testimonials (real reviews, before-after, stories)
  • Offer-focused Creatives (discount emphasis, urgency)
  • Educational Creatives (fashion tips, styling guides, trends)
  • Seasonal Campaign Creatives (holiday-specific, event-driven)
  • Brand Storytelling (founder story, values, mission)
  • Carousel Ads (product variations, color options, multiple benefits)
  • Collection Ads (curated product sets, themed bundles)

📊 Structured Testing Framework

  • Hook Testing: First 1 second determines thumb stop — tested different hooks
  • Headline Testing: Question-based vs. statement vs. benefit-driven headlines
  • Primary Text Testing: Copy length, tone, emotional triggers
  • CTA Testing: "Shop Now" vs. "Learn More" vs. "Get 20% Off"
  • Thumbnail Testing: Visual composition, color, subject focus
  • Visual Style Testing: Minimalist vs. lifestyle vs. flat-lay vs. lifestyle
  • Offer Testing: Discount messaging, scarcity, value prop emphasis
  • Format Testing: Still image vs. video vs. carousel — which performs best by audience
  • Audience-Creative Matching: Which creative types resonate with which audience segments

⚙️ Execution Framework

  • Creative Testing Calendar: Quarterly plan for rotating and testing new creative types
  • Rotation Guidelines: When to pause ads, how often to refresh creatives
  • Naming Conventions: Standardized naming for experiments (e.g., "UGC_Hook_A_v1")
  • Weekly Monitoring: Track CTR, video hold rate, cost per result by creative
  • Scaling Process: Identified winning concepts → expanded spend → created variations
  • Systematic Retirement: Paused underperforming assets on schedule

✅ Results Achieved

Creative Variety↑ Increased
Ad Fatigue↓ Reduced
Campaign Engagement↑ Better
Campaign Scalability↑ Enhanced
Business Impact: Organization adopted a repeatable creative optimization process. Improved campaign scalability. Reduced dependence on a small number of winning ads. Faster identification of high-performing creatives accelerated optimization cycles.

🔑 Key Learning
