From advertiser to The Enquiry Works

Before starting The Enquiry Works, I spent years building and marketing my own subscription business, Pit Pro. I started using Meta Ads almost immediately; a brief experiment with outsourced Google PPC produced a customer acquisition cost of more than £50.

The real turning point came when better tracking allowed me to measure Meta CAC properly. I learned to test creative, improve targeting and compare acquisition cost with what a customer was actually worth.

For a sustained period, Meta CAC settled at around £12 per customer, and Meta became Pit Pro’s main and sustained paid acquisition channel. Pit Pro has now generated more than 24,000 sales.

That’s where much of the thinking behind The Enquiry Works comes from: measure what matters, understand the economics and don’t assume a campaign will fix itself when performance starts to slip.

Experience that shapes the approach

Small-business ownership

Founder and operator of Pit Pro Ltd, with direct experience of building and running a subscription ecommerce business, acquiring customers and managing marketing budgets where every pound had to work hard.

Communications and customer experience

More than a decade of experience across communications, customer experience and process-led organisations, including supporting internal communications for approximately 14,000 colleagues at Direct Line Group.

Practical commercial accountability

Experience working with customer journeys, enquiries, campaign messaging, retention and business processes, with a focus on what happens after someone clicks or submits a form.

What working together should feel like

The service is deliberately founder-led. Clients deal directly with Liam throughout the assessment, setup and ongoing management of their campaign.

Straightforward

Clear explanations, honest feedback and no unnecessary marketing jargon.

Commercial

Campaign decisions are considered against customer value, lead quality and realistic business outcomes.

Evidence-led

Changes are made for a clear reason, not simply to create the appearance of activity.

Directly accountable

There are no layers of account management. The person assessing the business is also the person building and managing the campaign.

If the evidence suggests that Meta advertising is unsuitable, that the offer needs further work or that continued spending cannot be justified, that will be explained clearly.
