Gaudium IVF Centre, a leading fertility chain, was running paid campaigns to generate patient leads for IVF consultations and treatments. While campaigns were driving good click volumes, the clinic faced a serious pain point – a high percentage of incoming calls and leads were related to sperm donation inquiries, which were not their target service.
This wasted marketing budget, overloaded staff, and reduced overall campaign ROI.
High overlap of keywords around “IVF,” “sperm donor,” and “fertility donation.”
Large ad spend (~₹47.8 lakh in 60 days) that needed better lead quality.
Call-heavy lead system → made filtering irrelevant leads harder.
Strategy Implemented
Negative Keywords Integration
Added “sperm donor,” “semen bank,” “donation jobs,” “earn money sperm” etc. as negative keywords.
Refined keyword match types to focus on “IVF treatment”, “egg freezing”, “fertility clinic near me”.
Ad Copy Refinement
Replaced generic ad headlines like “IVF Centre in Delhi” with “IVF Treatment Consultation – Book Now”, “Egg Freezing Specialists”, “ICSI & Advanced Fertility Treatments”.
Avoided words like donation and sperm bank.
Landing Page Optimization
Built separate landing pages for IVF services, freezing, and donor egg/embryo programs.
Each page had call-to-actions for treatment bookings only, filtering out donation queries.
Call Tracking & Filtering
Integrated call tracking to measure quality of leads.
Staff trained to quickly disqualify donor inquiries and mark them separately for optimization.
Smart Bidding
Shifted to Target CPA bidding, optimizing for IVF consultation form fills and qualified calls only.
