Lead generation
Lead Generation Agency in South Africa
Enquiries for your own business from Google and Facebook ads, not a bought list of names.
Last updated
Trusted by businesses across South Africa and beyond
Social Agencies runs lead generation for South African businesses: enquiries for your own business from Google and Facebook ads, not bought lead lists. We run the ad campaigns, build landing pages for one action, and track every lead from the ad to the enquiry. Your ad budget is paid straight to the platform, never through us, and you see what each lead costs.
The problem
Sound familiar?
Four things we hear from business owners who have tried ads before and given up on them.
-
You boosted a post and got likes
The money went out and the reach looked good, but the phone did not ring. Likes do not pay the bills, and the boost button never said why.
-
The ad sends people to your homepage
A stranger taps an ad about one thing and lands on a page about everything. They have to hunt for the next step, and most of them do not.
-
Leads arrive and wait
An enquiry comes in on a Friday evening and gets a reply on Monday. By then the customer has already spoken to someone who answered.
-
Nobody knows what worked
Money is spent across a few ads and a few months, and nobody can say which ad brought in the customers or what each enquiry cost.
The funnel
What happens between the ad and the sale?
A lead generation funnel is the path a stranger takes from seeing your ad to becoming an enquiry you can call back. Social Agencies builds every step of it, so nothing leaks between them.
- 1
The ad
A campaign aimed at the people most likely to buy, with creative made to stop the scroll.
- 2
The enquiry
The click lands on a page with one job, and every enquiry arrives in one inbox with its source.
- 3
The follow-up
The lead gets a fast reply on WhatsApp, while they are still thinking about you.
- 4
The report
Each month you see spend, enquiries and what each one cost, in plain numbers.
Ads, site and inbox as one system
Dart Motors: the ads, the car pages and one lead inbox, run by one team.
Social Agencies runs Dart Motors' Facebook and Instagram ads into a site where every enquiry lands in one inbox, saved against the car the buyer asked about. The day the unified inbox went live, it closed a sale.
What you get
What does a Social Agencies lead generation service include?
Three parts, run as one machine, so the money spent on the ad is not lost on the page or in the follow-up.
-
Part 1
The ads
Facebook and Instagram campaigns set up, run and adjusted inside your own ad account.
- Campaigns aimed at the people most likely to buy
- Image, video and copy written in your buyer's words
- Versions tested one change at a time
- Your ad budget paid straight to Meta
-
Part 2
The landing pages
A page built for the offer in the ad, with one clear action and nothing to distract from it.
- One page per offer, not your homepage
- Form, WhatsApp and call buttons on the page
- Built to open fast on a phone
- Consent wording and a link to your privacy notice
-
Part 3
Follow-up and tracking
Every lead reaches the right person at once, and every one is traced back to its ad.
- Instant alerts on WhatsApp and email
- Every form, call and WhatsApp tap tracked to its ad
- Every lead logged with its source and an owner
- A monthly report: spend, enquiries and cost per enquiry
One team. One system. One monthly partner. Built, run and improved by Social Agencies.
Book a callCreative
Creative that stops the scroll
People scroll past most ads without a second look. The ones that get stopped for show something the buyer recognises from their own day, in their own words.
Social Agencies writes creative around the job your customer wants done, then tests versions against each other so the winner is chosen by numbers, not taste.
- Hooks written in your buyer's language
- Image and video formats for Facebook and Instagram
- One change per test, so we know what worked
Coworking brand
The 925 Coterie puts the enquiry desk in the first screen.
Social Agencies built The 925 Coterie a film-led homepage with the enquiry desk built into the hero, so a visitor can ask about the space from the very first screen, without hunting for how.
Boost or build
Boosting posts versus running ads properly
The boost button is easy. It is also the most expensive way to learn nothing.
| Boosting posts | Running ads properly | |
|---|---|---|
| Goal | Likes and reach | Enquiries you can call back |
| Audience | Whoever the platform picks | Chosen and refined on results |
| Where the click goes | Your profile or a general page | A landing page with one action |
| Tracking | Views and likes | Every enquiry traced to its ad |
| Testing | None | One variable at a time |
| What you learn | Very little | What each enquiry cost, and why |
Speed to lead
The fastest reply usually wins the customer
A lead is at its warmest in the minutes after they enquire. Wait until tomorrow and they have often called someone else.
Social Agencies routes every enquiry to the right phone the moment it arrives, with a WhatsApp reply ready to send, so the first answer comes from you.
- Instant alerts on WhatsApp and email
- Every lead logged with its source
- A clear owner for each enquiry
No surprises
What can you count on?
A fixed fee in writing first
Social Agencies quotes a flat fee for the work after a short call. Nothing starts, and nothing is paid, before you have agreed to it.
Your ad budget goes straight to Meta or Google
Ad spend is paid directly to the platform on your own card. It never passes through us and is never marked up, so you see exactly what was spent.
You own the accounts
Campaigns run inside your own ad accounts, so the history, the audiences and every lead stay with you whatever happens.
Clear terms, no surprises
The monthly terms, including notice, are written into a short agreement you see before anything starts. No hidden exit fees.

Frequently asked questions
Does my ad budget go through Social Agencies?
No. Your ad budget is paid directly to Meta or Google from your own account. Social Agencies charges only for the work, so you can always see exactly what was spent on ads.
Do you guarantee a number of leads?
No, and be wary of anyone who does. Results depend on your offer, your market and how fast enquiries are answered. Social Agencies commits to the work: tested creative, a page built to convert and tracking that shows what each lead costs.
How quickly will leads come in?
The first days of any campaign are the platform learning who to show the ad to, so early numbers move around. Social Agencies judges a campaign once there is enough data to learn from, not on day two.
Should I advertise on Meta or Google?
Google search suits people already looking for what you do. Meta suits reaching people before they search, with a strong picture or video. Social Agencies recommends where to start after looking at what you sell.
What do you need from us?
Access to your ad accounts, a clear offer, and someone who can answer enquiries quickly. Fast replies turn more enquiries into sales than any change to the ad.
Can you run ads to my existing website?
Yes, if the site can turn a visitor into an enquiry and track it. If it cannot, we will say so first, because advertising into a weak page is paying to lose people.
Who owns the ad accounts and the audiences?
You do. Campaigns run inside your own Meta and Google accounts, so the history and audiences stay with you whatever happens.
