Key Takeaway

The data shows a clear correlation between Meta ad spend and an uplift in reservations. Every £1 invested into Meta ads directly generated significant incremental revenue, proving that targeted paid activity converts into real covers.

 

In the first week of Meta activity 9 th  July to 16 th  July, we also saw a 9% uplift vs last year which equated to an additional £1,168 in revenue.

 

When looking at the month of July where we ran our first full month of activity, we saw a big +22% increase in covers compared to the previous month when no ads were run which produced an additional 67 customers.
