The Smart 2-Step Ad Strategy

Let’s be real, many small business owners put all their money into a single “big” ad hoping it’ll fill the room. Most of the time, it leads to random clicks and low attendance.

The smarter approach is a simple two-step ad strategy: first, attract a wide pool of genuinely interested people, and then gently remind and convert those who already showed some interest.

This is what agencies that charge thousands of dollars hide from their clients to justify the high fees. This method is proven to get you more sign-ups for less money.

Prospecting Ad - Building the audience

Start by running an ad that grabs attention and invites people to learn something valuable. The goal here isn’t to sell. It’s just to attract the right people and get them to engage, click, or watch your short video. The focus is on a relatable problem and the promise of fast, reliable help.

Expected Results: Reach, Views and Clicks.

  • Sample Headline:

    “Need a Fix Fast? Local Pros Ready Today”

  • Sample Ad Copy:

    Tired of leaky taps, power outages, or repairs piling up? Our certified techs are ready to help with same-day service in [Your City]. Quick fixes, fair prices, and work you can trust—let us take the stress out of home repairs.

  • What to show in your ad?

    • Use real, local images: your team in action, work vans, happy customers at home
    • Before-and-after transformations (messy to sparkling clean, broken to fixed)
    • Colors: clean whites, blues, a pop of green or orange for energy
    • For reels or short video: quick montage of a repair process, ending with a smile or handshake

With Xoopah, you can select industry-specific templates and the AI will generate headlines and captions that fit your business needs, no design and writing headaches.

  • Budget & Targeting Tips:

    • Start with $10–$15 per day for at least a week.
    • Target local zip codes or neighborhoods, ages 25–65+
    • Interests: home improvement, local services, DIY, property management (although the algorithm does not use them a lot, it’s okay to put them in)

Also, Xoopah’s built-in budget calculator quickly gives you the right spend for your industry and goals, no spreadsheet math required. Start your free trial and test.

Visual Example #1

Retargeting Ad - Converting interested people into clients

After 7 days, run a second ad just on the audience you built in your first ad, this ad will show only to those who are interested in your business. This is done by seeing who interacted with your first ad (clicked on the ad, messaged you, or watched a good length your video). Now you just need to keep the following in mind as you go on creating an effective ad #2.

Expected Results: Reach, Views and Clicks.

Essential #1: Tapping into Emotions

People reach out to home service pros when they’re stressed or overwhelmed. Your ad text should offer relief and reassurance.

For example:

  • “We’ll take care of it, so you can get back to living. In just $50 for this week”
  • “Relax. Your home is in safe hands. Available 24/7”

A real testimonial or story about how you helped a customer in a bind goes a long way. In case you can create that relatability, this is the best strategy.

Essential #2: Creating Urgency

Home repairs can’t wait. Make it clear you offer fast service, limited-time offers, or special slots (“Same-day appointments available” or “Book this week for 10% off”). Give people a reason to call now, not next month.

  • Sample Headline:

    “Last Chance for a Free Quote – Book Today”

  • Sample Ad Copy:

    We noticed you checked out our home repair services. If you still need help, our schedule’s filling up! Book your free estimate today and see why [number]+ homeowners in [Your City] trust us.

  • What to show in your ad?

    • Show a calendar, checklist, or a “thumbs-up” customer testimonial
    • Overlay: “Few Slots Left This Week”
    • Keep it warm and reassuring
  • Possible CTAs for you:

  • Budget & Targeting Tips:
