More SaaS Leads. Lower CAC. Scalable Growth— Without Guesswork.

We help SaaS companies acquire more customers with paid ads and conversion-focused lead funnels—so you can scale predictably without burning budget.

Join 20+ happy founders who’ve turned paid ads into predictable growth.

You Built an Amazing SaaS—So Why Is Customer Acquisition So Unpredictable?

You’ve spent months—maybe years—building your SaaS. But without a predictable lead generation system, growth feels like a guessing game.

💸 Your ad spend keeps increasing, but your trial-to-paid conversions aren’t keeping up.

Your organic growth has plateaued, and referrals alone won’t get you to the next level.

📈 Your CAC is climbing, and every unoptimized campaign eats away at your margins.

😵 You’re stuck in the cycle of spending more for fewer results, while competitors scale faster.

If you keep doing what you’re doing now, what will change?

SaaS growth shouldn’t be this frustrating. You need a scalable, predictable system to acquire high-intent users—without bleeding cash.

Turn Paid Ads Into a Lead-Generating Machine That Scales With Your SaaS.

You don’t need more traffic. You need a system that turns paid traffic into high-intent leads—and leads into paying SaaS customers.

That’s where we come in.

We build predictable, scalable acquisition systems using:

✅ High-Performance Paid Ads

No more wasted budget—just qualified leads at the lowest possible CAC.

✅ Optimized lead funnels

Every step of your customer journey is designed to maximize conversions.

✅ Data-driven testing & optimization

We run A/B tests so you don’t have to guess what works. It’s said to you by data.

✅ SaaS-specific growth strategies

Everything we do is built for SaaS founders like you—focused on trial-to-paid conversion & MRR growth.

This is the same system SaaS companies are using to generate predictable growth—without relying on referrals, manual outreach, or organic traffic alone.

Are you ready to scale without guesswork?

Helping CondoSpace Launch and Scale with Targeted Lead Generation

CondoSpace by Blue River Sys

The Challenge

CondoSpace, an early-stage app designed to simplify condo management for administrators, was preparing to enter the US and Brazilian markets. However, the app was still in development, with several changes yet to be made, and they needed to build traction quickly. Without a clear strategy or defined audience, they struggled to generate leads efficiently and showcase the app’s value to potential customers.

Our Solution

To overcome these hurdles and deliver measurable results, we crafted a multi-layered lead generation strategy tailored to CondoSpace’s unique needs:

  • Defining the Ideal Customer Profile (ICP):
    We conducted market research to identify key demographics and pain points for condo administrators in both the US and Brazil, ensuring every campaign targeted the right audience.

  • Custom-Tailored Ads:
    Designed ad creatives and copy that highlighted the app’s core benefits—effortless condo management and streamlined communication—resonating with condo administrators’ needs.

  • High-Converting Landing Pages:
    Developed and A/B tested multiple landing pages optimized for lead generation, ensuring every visitor was directed to a highly relevant and effective page.

  • PPC Campaigns Across Two Markets:
    Launched pay-per-click (PPC) campaigns on Google, carefully allocating the budget to maximize engagement and minimize costs in both the US and Brazil.

The Results

After just 28 days, CondoSpace achieved remarkable results:

  • Conversions: 37 new leads acquired in less than a month.
  • Cost Efficiency: Achieved an average CPC of $0.67 and a cost per conversion of $15.80.
  • High Engagement: With a CTR of 6.01%, the campaigns consistently outperformed industry benchmarks.
  • Valuable Insights: Thanks to our targeted strategy, CondoSpace validated its market fit, grew its user base, and gained valuable customer insights, building momentum for future scaling.
