Direct-to-Consumer Growth for an Aquaculture Business

A real performance marketing case study built from my own fish farming business, using personal ad spend, WhatsApp funnels, audience testing, and creative optimization across Facebook and Instagram.


Portfolio Snapshot

I built and managed a Meta Ads acquisition system for a direct-to-consumer fish farming business in Islamabad, Pakistan. The business started with no meaningful digital marketing history, no existing campaign benchmarks, and no proven online order flow.

The objective was simple: turn paid social traffic into qualified WhatsApp and Messenger conversations, then use those conversations to drive local orders.

Because this was my own business, I was not only managing ads. I was responsible for budget discipline, lead quality, sales potential, and every optimization decision.
