// 01 - COMPETITOR GAP

You are already visible.
The gap is what appears above you.

You are already doing the difficult part well. Bexley Hearing Centre appears prominently in local organic results and carries a 4.9-star reputation. The issue is what happens immediately above those listings: Audika, Boots, Hearing Expert and other larger operators are paying to meet the same patient first.

Put in your numbers.
See whether the economics stack up.

This is an adjustable commercial model, not a revenue forecast. Change the inputs to figures that are closer to Bexley Hearing Centre's own patient values and budget.

How this model works:The model uses two conversion stages: clicks to hearing test bookings, then bookings to completed hearing aid fittings. Search costs are informed by the search environment reviewed, while booking, fitting and margin inputs are working assumptions. The two biggest commercial variables are adjustable below so you can sense-check the opportunity against your own numbers.

// 03 - 12-MONTH RETURN CURVE

The first few months build the signal.
The economics improve as the campaign matures.

Select a scenario to see how cumulative net return changes as the campaign matures. The cautious year-one case is deliberately modest. The model becomes more attractive if acquisition efficiency improves after the initial learning period.

// 04 - THE OFFER

We'd rather earn more when this works.

The £950 monthly fee covers the campaign, tracking, optimisation and reporting. The remaining fee is tied to patients who progress to a fitting, so part of what you pay us rises only when the campaign creates commercial value. You get the depth and tooling of an agency, with one person directly accountable for the strategy and performance.

per month
+ £150 per standard fitting
+ £250 per premium / bilateral fitting
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU
The success fee only applies to fittings the campaign actually brings in. If it does not deliver a fitting, that part of the fee is zero.
Using the working assumptions in this model, year-one net return ranges from a modest cautious case to a materially stronger realistic case as the campaign matures. The calculator above lets you test that with your own numbers.
No setup fee. Ad spend goes directly to the platforms. I personally handle the marketing science, strategy and account.
