Case Study: JNS Education – Transforming Lead Generation Across the Middle East
Project Overview
JNS Education is a leading education consultancy with a presence in Pakistan and the Middle East, specifically in Kuwait, Bahrain, UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar. They assist students in securing admissions to universities worldwide.
Despite their strong reputation, JNS Education faced challenges with lead generation in the Middle East. They were struggling with:

- Reduce the cost per lead (CPL) to improve overall campaign efficiency.
- Optimize the lead generation funnel to drive better conversions.
Challenges Identified
- Ineffective audience targeting – The previous campaigns were not reaching the right students or parents.
- Unoptimized lead forms – Forms were too long or had irrelevant fields, discouraging sign-ups.
- Weak retargeting strategy – Potential leads were not being effectively nurtured after showing interest.
- High cost per result – Leads were being acquired at a higher-than-average cost, affecting ROI.
Strategies Implemented

- Audience Testing & Refinement
- Conducted A/B testing to identify high-performing audiences.
- Tested different audience segments, including students, parents, and working professionals interested in further education.
- Form Adjustments & Optimization
- Simplified lead forms to reduce drop-offs and only asked for essential information.
- Tested multiple form variations to find the best-performing one.
- Retargeting & Funnel Strategy
- Created a retargeting campaign for users who engaged with ads but did not submit a form.
- Developed a multi-step funnel, guiding potential students from awareness to inquiry, making the process smoother.
