How Lifewood got 3x more qualified leads from Google and Meta.

Lifewood sells timber flooring. When we started 12 months ago, website issues were holding back conversion rates, Google Ads couldn’t tell a qualified lead from a form fill, and the Meta Ads strategy needed an overhaul. We fixed all three, connecting HubSpot to Google Ads so the spend now goes where the quality is.

The results

3xmore qualified leads
12months working together

Qualified leads in the quarter we started (Q3 2025), compared with the same quarter a year later (Q3 2026).

Jeremy has been a hard working and…

Jeremy has been a hard working and responsible paid media operator for us and in his less than 1 year period he has managed to rectify some very dubious account setups for both meta and Google. His results speak for themselves and he has been the hardest most dedicated agency we have ever worked with. On top of that he is a very good man with great family values. We love having him on our team.

The starting point

Plenty of form fills. No way to tell which ones mattered.

For a timber flooring business, the number that matters is qualified leads: people genuinely in the market for new floors, not just anyone who fills in a form.

When we came on board, Mark described the existing ad accounts as having “very dubious account setups”. Three things were holding results back: website issues that were hurting conversion rates, no view of lead quality inside Google Ads, and a Meta Ads strategy that wasn’t focused on getting people into the showroom.

So Google Ads could count form fills, but not which campaigns produced the leads Lifewood actually wanted.

What we did

Four changes, from the website to the showroom.

Better conversion first, then better data, then putting the budget where the quality is.

Fixed the website issues hurting conversion

What we found

Issues on the website that were holding back conversion rates, so paid traffic wasn’t turning into enquiries as well as it should.

What we changed

We identified the issues and helped Lifewood’s team resolve them, so more of the people who click through actually get in touch.

Connected HubSpot lead quality to Google Ads

What we found

Google Ads could see form fills, but not which of them became qualified leads or customers.

What we changed

We implemented qualified lead and customer tracking from HubSpot into Google Ads, so we can see which campaigns drive good-quality leads, not just form fills.

Focused the spend on quality

What we found

Without lead quality data, every form fill looked equally valuable, wherever it came from.

What we changed

With HubSpot data in Google Ads, we focused the spend on the campaigns and areas driving genuinely qualified leads.

Overhauled Meta Ads around the showroom

What we found

A Meta Ads strategy that wasn’t built around getting people into Lifewood’s showroom.

What we changed

We overhauled the Meta Ads strategy to focus on driving people into the showroom to see the floors in person.

Closing the loop

How lead quality gets back into Google Ads.

The path an enquiry takes now, from the first click to where the next dollar is spent.

  1. Google AdsSomeone searches and clicks

    They find Lifewood while looking for timber flooring.

  2. WebsiteThey enquire

    A website that’s been fixed to convert turns more of those clicks into enquiries.

  3. HubSpotThe lead is qualified

    Lifewood’s team qualifies the lead in HubSpot, and later marks who becomes a customer.

  4. Google AdsQuality is imported

    Qualified leads and customers flow back into Google Ads against the campaign that drove them.

Then back to step 1: spend goes to the campaigns driving quality, not just form fills.

Why this changed where the money went.

Before, every form fill looked the same inside Google Ads, whether it came from someone ready to buy new floors or not. That made it impossible to tell the strong campaigns from the weak ones.

With qualified lead and customer data flowing in from HubSpot, we could see which campaigns were producing genuine quality, and focus the spend there. Our conversion tracking guide covers how imports like this are set up.

Before: what Google Ads could see
“Someone filled in a form.”
Every form fill looked equally valuable.
Now: what Google Ads can see
“Someone became a qualified lead, or a customer.”
Imported from HubSpot, so spend follows the campaigns that drive quality.
The results

Three times the qualified leads.

Comparing the quarter we started with the same quarter a year later, Lifewood is getting three times as many qualified leads.
