Starting point
The brand bought in generic home channels with weak intent signals. Lead volume looked acceptable, but sales teams reported low-quality conversations and poor follow-through.
Workflow in Telepars
Operators built the first map through Category Search, then used Similar Channels from the best converting seeds. Every candidate list went through Channel Analysis before negotiation.
Execution example
The first shortlist had 92 channels. After quality filtering and overlap cleanup, 38 channels remained. Unique Links then identified which creators drove not just clicks, but qualified design-project requests.
Measured results
Within two campaign waves, qualified inbound increased by 42% and low-intent leads dropped by 27%. Sales feedback aligned with attribution data for the first time.
Operational change
The team moved from 'big channel = good channel' logic to a scored shortlist process with weekly optimization. Agency and in-house marketing now use one evidence base for buying decisions.
What made this work
Niche precision plus strict pre-buy validation improved traffic fit, while link-level attribution removed ambiguity in performance discussions.
