numbers decide your budget searchextension.in/pune
THE SH ORT AN S WER
Your budget comes from three numbers you already know
1
2
3
Average order or contract value — over a year if they come back.
Per month, to hit your sales target. Be specific.
Cost per lead from ads, and how many leads it takes to win one sale.
What one customer is worth
How many new customers you need
What one enquiry costs
Monthly ad budget = customers needed × leads per sale × cost per lead

the sales target
1 buyer per 10 enquiries

Google Ads, B2B
₹30,000
a month on ads · 50 × ₹600
Check: if one buyer is worth ₹2 lakh a year, ₹30,000 to win five of them is cheap. If one buyer is worth ₹8,000, the plan needs a cheaper channel, not a bigger budget.
Illustrative numbers — put your own into the same three steps.

Launching 10–15% First 90 days. You are buying data as much as leads.
Growing 7–10% Adding a locality, a product line or a second city.
Steady 5–7% Known in your market. Spend protects and grows what already works. A rule of thumb, not a rule. Once you know your cost per lead, the formula on slide 2 replaces it.

B2B and well-funded. Competitive clicks, high deal value.
Google ranks PCMC separately. Many Pune campaigns leave it out by accident.
Seasonal. Admissions, festivals and new-term spends change the cost per lead.
Plan the year, not the month. Ganeshotsav, Navratri, Diwali and the April–June admission season all move demand in Pune. Keep 15–20% of the yearly budget free for them.

BEFORE YOU SPEND M ORE
Five places Pune budgets quietly leak Calls and WhatsApp are not tracked
Every ad lands on the home page
You judge the ads on form fills only and switch off the ones that actually ring.
One page per service converts better than a menu.
Ads run across all of Maharashtra
SEO stopped after two months
Clicks from Nashik and Nagpur look like traffic and never become customers.
In Pune, map results move in 6–9 weeks; competitive rankings take 4–7 months.
Boosting posts instead of running ads A boost buys likes. A lead or message campaign buys enquiries.
Fix these five first. They cost nothing to fix — and every rupee you add afterwards works harder.
