Phased timeline
- Weeks 1-4: learning phase, 60-150 pounds CPL volatility
- Weeks 5-8: first creative refresh, CPL stabilises
- Weeks 9-12: audience expansion, ROAS measurable
- Weeks 13-16: scale or pause based on LTV data
Booking the first client within 30 days is common; true ROAS clarity needs 90+ days because advice cycles are long.
