Your Startup Is Burning Ad Money. Here’s Why And How to Stop It. (Blog)

You launched your Meta or Google ads. You got clicks. But the leads? Either garbage or non-existent.

You're not alone. This is the #1 problem I see with early-stage startups that come to me after burning through ₹50K–₹2L in ad spend with nothing to show for it.

The problem isn't your ad creative. It's not your targeting. And it's definitely not that "digital marketing doesn't work."

The problem is structural. And it's fixable if you stop treating SEO, paid ads, and lead gen as three separate things.
