Case Study · Clean Energy

From zero presence to 890 qualified leads

A multi-state EV charger installer had no digital presence in a new market. In 6 months, we built a multi-channel system across Google Ads, LinkedIn, and SEO that dropped CPL from $156 to $42 and generated a $3.4M pipeline.

The Challenge

New market, zero brand awareness, long sales cycles

The company was entering a market with no established digital presence. Both B2B commercial and B2C residential segments had long sales cycles that required prospect education before conversion. Without brand recognition, they were paying $156 per lead with minimal pipeline.

$156 cost per lead

Unsustainable CPL with no brand equity to lower it

Zero digital presence

No SEO rankings, no paid history, no audience data

Long, complex sales cycles

B2B and B2C prospects needed education before converting

The Strategy

Educate first, convert second

01

Market Segmentation

Separated B2B (commercial property managers, fleet operators, HOAs) from B2C (homeowners with EVs). Built distinct messaging, landing pages, and conversion funnels for each.

02

Google Ads — Intent Capture

Targeted high-intent keywords: "EV charger installation," "commercial EV charging," "home EV charger installer." Created separate campaigns for residential vs. commercial with location-specific ad copy.

03

LinkedIn B2B Campaigns

Targeted commercial property managers, facility directors, and fleet managers on LinkedIn. Used lead gen forms with whitepapers and ROI calculators as lead magnets.

04

SEO Content Strategy

Published 24 in-depth guides: "Cost of EV charger installation," "Commercial EV charging ROI," "Home EV charger buying guide," and more. Built topical authority and captured long-tail search traffic.

05

Lead Nurture & Scoring

Implemented lead scoring based on property type, budget range, and engagement level. Hot leads routed to sales immediately; warm leads entered nurture sequences.

06

Multi-State Scaling

Started in 2 states, expanded to 5 as campaigns matured. Replicated winning strategies per market while adjusting for local competition and demand.

Key Takeaway

New markets reward the companies that educate first and sell second. By combining intent-capture ads with a robust content strategy, we built authority and pipeline simultaneously. The SEO content we published in month 2 is still generating leads today — that's the compounding power of content-led growth.
