7 months. Zero extra spend. 538% more bookings.

Sydney Dermal Lounge had the customers. They had the budget. What they didn't have was a digital strategy that worked. We fixed that.

The ads were running. The bookings weren't.

When Sydney Dermal Lounge came to us in July 2025, they were spending serious money on Google Ads with almost nothing to show for it. The previous agency had built a campaign that looked fine on the surface. Under the hood, it was bleeding budget.

$1,100+

Cost per booking

Every confirmed booking was costing over $1,100. For a premium clinic, that margin is simply not viable.
0.12%

Conversion rate

Barely 1 in 800 visitors was converting. Traffic was coming in. Money was going out. Bookings weren't happening.
12

Bookings from $13.5K spend

In June 2025, the previous agency generated just 12 confirmed bookings from $13,498 in ad spend.
High

Customer lifetime value at stake

Premium dermal treatments mean each lost booking isn't just one visit. It's a long-term client relationship walking out the door.

Spend more or work smarter. We chose smarter.

Throwing more budget at a broken funnel would have made the problem worse, not better. The strategy was simple: fix the funnel first, then let the spend do its job.

See the difference design makes.

The home page was the first stop. Visitors were landing and leaving. We redesigned the entire user journey — from the first scroll to the booking form — to remove friction and drive action.

What changed on the home page

Hero Replaced a static, text-heavy header with a bold headline that leads with outcome. Trust signals (reviews, ratings) moved above the fold.
