I Bought Health Insurance Leads So You Don’t Have To: My Real Results

  • Facebook Lead Ads: $12 per lead average (broad, with health intent questions)
    • Spend: $1,080 for 90 leads
    • Sales: 10
    • Close rate: ~11%
    • Notes: Form comments helped. “Need plan that covers Wegovy.” That line made my close.

While brainstorming fresh audiences for those Facebook campaigns, I sometimes study totally different industries to see where specific niches gather online. If you ever want inspiration on how to reach body-positive or plus-size communities, a quick peek at the dating space can spark ideas. I found this breakdown of the best apps to hook up with big girls which profiles the platforms, user demographics, and engagement triggers those audiences respond to—useful intel when you’re building new ad targeting or testing creative angles outside the typical insurance bubble.

  • Google Ads “Call Only”:
    • Spend: $1,500
    • Calls: 110
    • Sales: 14
    • Notes: Many junk calls, but when I filtered by ZIP and hours, it tightened up.
