The curiousGrowth Method

Why Paid Trials Beat Free Trials

Free trials attract browsers. Paid trials attract committed new members – and the numbers prove it.

How It Works

A Campaign Built Around Your Club

We build, run, and optimise your Meta ads from scratch – paid trial campaigns run by a club owner, not an agency.

Campaign Setup

Full ad account setup, pixel installation, audience research, and creative production.

Paid Trial Offer

We build the offer, the landing page, and the follow-up sequence – not just the ad.

Lead Follow-Up

Speed-to-lead is everything. We build the automation so no lead goes cold.

Weekly Optimisation

We review performance every week and adjust targeting, creative, and budget to keep trials flowing.

Transparent Reporting

You see cost per lead, cost per trial booked, and cost per member – every week.

Run By a Club Owner

Your campaigns are run by someone who fills his own clubs with these ads – not an agency account manager.

Getting Started

What We Need From You

Setup takes about a week. Almost all of it is us – here is the short list of what has to come from your side.

Access, Not Passwords

You stay the owner of your Facebook page, ad account and pixel. We get partner access, which you can revoke any time.

Your Trial Offer

What the trial includes, how long it runs, and what it costs. If you do not have one yet, we build it with you on the onboarding call.

Footage of Real Classes

Phone video is fine. Ads with your actual mats, your actual students, outperform stock every time.

Someone to Answer

Leads go cold in hours, not days. You or a staff member needs to be reachable. The follow-up sequences do the chasing.

Straight Answers

The Questions Club Owners Actually Ask

I tried Facebook ads and got rubbish leads.

Almost always targeting and offer, not the platform. Boosted posts optimise for engagement, so you pay for likes from people 50km away. A properly structured campaign optimises for the trial booking and holds the radius tight around your club.

Why paid trials instead of a free week?

A free trial costs nothing to skip. A paid trial is a small commitment that filters out browsers before they take up a spot on your mat, and the people who do turn up convert at a far higher rate.

How much should I spend?

We will tell you honestly on the call, based on your town, your class capacity and your trial price. If the numbers do not work at a sensible budget, we say so rather than take the money.

Am I locked into a contract?

No lock-in. You own the ad account, the pixel data and the audiences. If you leave, all of it stays with you.

How long before I see trials?

Campaigns usually go live inside a week of onboarding, and first bookings typically land in the first fortnight. The compounding comes later, as the pixel learns and the retargeting audience builds.

Will this work in a small town?

Often better. Costs per thousand are lower and the community effect is stronger. The limit is population, not platform – we check that with you before you commit.

Want the ads without the programme?

Ads Only – $147/week, cancel anytime.
