The Brief

CIMA Global offers globally recognised finance qualifications targeting senior executives in India. The challenge was reaching CFOs, Finance Directors, and C-Suite decision-makers at top companies an audience that is expensive to reach, does not respond to broad targeting, and requires precise channel strategy and creative relevance to convert.

What Worked

Key highlights.

🎯
LinkedIn as the lead engine

InMail campaigns and designation-specific targeting consistently produced the highest-quality leads CFOs and Finance Directors from named enterprise accounts.

🔍
Google Search for high intent

'cima' and 'cima qualification' keywords delivered 12.45% CTR, capturing professionals actively researching the qualification.

🔁
Meta retargeting for warm audiences

RTG campaigns engaged previous website visitors and video viewers, generating additional leads at a significantly lower CPL than top-of-funnel.

“The quality of leads NPR Design generates on LinkedIn is the reason we keep investing. When a CFO from HSBC or a Finance Director from EY submits a form, that is the kind of lead that converts to an enrollment.”
