Suggested starting setup

Objective: Lead form

Courses and trips need questions answered first, so a lead form with dates and certification level works well. Use traffic for fun-dive booking pages.

Start with all three angles in one ad set at a small daily budget for 5-7 days, then keep the angle that brings the most leads and make a fresh campaign around it.

Tip for dive shops and dive centres: Show your own boats, instructors and divers. Stock reef photos from other parts of the world disappoint travellers who expect what they saw.

Mistakes to avoid

• ×Stock reef photos from other parts of the world that disappoint travellers on arrival.
• ×Not saying which certification level a dive or trip needs.
