Case Study: How We Helped Savvy Social grow Big Bore Safari’s Leads by 2,000 in 6 Months

Luxury tourism isn’t exactly plug-and-play when it comes to digital marketing. For niche industries like safari and high-end adventure, generating quality leads takes more than a boosted post and pretty pictures.

But with the right strategy, even a business with zero digital footprint can scale fast.

This Facebook ads agency case study explores how Legs Brands partnered with social media titans in Durban: Savvy Social to help as a white labelling service for Big Bore Safari—a new entrant in South Africa’s high-end hunting and safari space—to build a full-funnel Meta ads campaign, automate their lead pipeline, and drive thousands of qualified leads in just six months.

The Challenge: Zero to Something

When Big Bore Safari came to us, they had:

  • No paid media running

  • No sales collateral (no brochures or lead magnets)

  • A slow-moving sales pipeline

  • Manual, inconsistent email responses

  • No CRM or tracking system

They were launching into a competitive, trust-driven space with no way to consistently reach or nurture leads. Our challenge? Build the entire engine from scratch—and make it perform.

The Legs Brands Solution

We approached the project holistically, not just as an ad campaign—but as a full customer acquisition system.

1. Full-Funnel Facebook Ads Strategy

We created a structured approach across awareness, interest, and conversion stages to capture and nurture leads effectively.

2. Ad Creatives for Four Core Offers

We designed bespoke creatives for each of Big Bore’s safari packages, tailored to appeal to their target U.S. audience.

3. Landing Page & Lead Capture

We built a mobile-optimized landing page with high-converting forms and brochure download CTAs.

4. HubSpot CRM Setup & Email Automation

All leads flowed directly into HubSpot. From there, we:

  • Automated welcome emails and follow-ups

  • Designed and implemented email scripts

  • Qualified leads using smart fields

  • Assigned leads to internal sales reps for bookings

5. Sales Collateral & Booking Enablement

To close the loop, we designed premium brochures and pitch decks—and supported the Big Bore team in facilitating bookings via email and CRM workflows.
