I design acquisition systems that turn attention, data and interest into customers, revenue and margin.
Buying attention is easy.
Turning it into business is the real work.
I build systems where advertising, offer, funnel, data and sales work together to make growth measurable and sustainable.
Davide Cosmai
Davide Cosmai is a Meta Ads consultant and Meta Business Partner who designs customer acquisition systems on Facebook and Instagram Ads for e-commerce, B2B/B2C lead generation and brands.
My expertise comes from a deep vertical focus on Meta, built over more than 15 years of work.
Today it brings together marketing strategy, advertising, AI, automations, funnel, tracking, CRM and sales processes.
I'm a Meta Business Partner.
I've worked on DTC e-commerce, B2B and B2C lead generation, brand building, licensed IP and international markets.
I've managed more than €10M in ad budget and helped generate more than €52M in revenue for clients.
I believe in win-win partnerships.
If the client really grows, the partnership has value.
Otherwise it's just well-packaged busywork.

Leads reaching a proposal in 30 days
Management consulting firm with an average deal size of €28,000, speaking to CFOs, COOs and owners of companies with 20 to 200 employees. Contacts were coming in, but almost always far from any real buying intent: the sales team burned hours on exploratory calls with companies out of target or with no urgency.

Management consulting firm with an average deal size of €28,000, speaking to CFOs, COOs and owners of companies with 20 to 200 employees. Contacts were coming in, but almost always far from any real buying intent: the sales team burned hours on exploratory calls with companies out of target or with no urgency.
We changed the angle. The ads stopped talking about consulting and started talking about symptoms: margin sliding without knowing why, processes holding growth back, opportunities lost for lack of data. Then a three-stage path, educational content, case studies for people who had already engaged, a qualifying form with a call booked straight into the senior partner's calendar. Plus a score that sorts leads into three lanes with different handling.
In 4 months: 96 qualified leads, €41 cost per opportunity, €740,000 of open pipeline. 18% of contacts reached a formal proposal within 30 days.

Revenue from returning customers
Mid-market fashion brand with a strong visual identity and a catalog of over 800 SKUs, fewer than 20 of which the campaigns actively promoted. Creatives stayed live for months and sales followed the seasonal peaks: outside those windows, revenue collapsed.
We pushed the entire catalog into Advantage+ Shopping, giving the algorithm far more products to work with. The creatives stopped describing the garment and started telling the moment you wear it. Remarketing was layered by temperature, from someone who viewed a product to someone who has already bought. Bundles and shipping thresholds raised average order value by 38% without touching unit prices.
In its strongest stretches the system passed €100,000 in monthly revenue, at an average ROAS above 6x. 31% of revenue comes from customers who have already bought.

Neighbourhood fitness studio, a new 8-week group program, 20 spots to fill in two weeks and less than €200 to spend. It wasn't a budget problem: local campaigns fail because they generate generic interest, and someone who thinks "I'll think about it" doesn't come back.

We kept everything simple. Real scarcity, updated daily in the ad: "20 spots, 14 already taken." A 4 km radius, ages 28–52, specific fitness interests. A pre-filled Meta form with one extra question. And a WhatsApp message written by hand by the trainer within 30 minutes, with the person's name and the link to confirm their spot.
Twenty spots sold in 5 days, €9 per signup, 78% follow-up response rate. We ran the same program again the following month: sold out in 3 days.

A practice specializing in implantology and invisible orthodontics, with an average treatment value above €5,000. The contacts were already coming in. What was missing was knowing how many of them actually had the intention and the means to start a treatment at that level. The previous campaigns mostly attracted people looking for an €80 cleaning.

A practice specializing in implantology and invisible orthodontics, with an average treatment value above €5,000. The contacts were already coming in. What was missing was knowing how many of them actually had the intention and the means to start a treatment at that level. The previous campaigns mostly attracted people looking for an €80 cleaning.
We worked on qualifying demand. Creatives that say explicitly which treatments they are about, so people outside the target don't click. Ads that start from the patient's problem rather than the practice's services: feeling embarrassed to smile, pain ignored for years, an old denture that no longer fits. A form with three mandatory questions covering treatment of interest, budget range and urgency. An instant notification to the front desk.
Time to first contact went from 48 hours to under 4. Patient response rate almost doubled. 61% of qualified leads became a confirmed appointment.

Pre-development startup with a product hypothesis: an AI tool to automate a repetitive task for marketing and communications teams. The skills to build it were there. What was missing was knowing whether the market wanted it, why, and how much it would pay for it.
Before writing a line of code we tested three different promises, time savings, fewer errors and process scalability, each with its own landing page and campaigns aimed at professional audiences. Anyone joining the waitlist also filled in a micro-survey on use case, how often the problem shows up, tools already in use and monthly spend capacity.
1,240 signups at €1.82 each, 18% high intent. The answers surfaced a usage segment the team hadn't considered, 34% of the most interested users. And the time-savings promise performed 40% better than the other two.
What clients say.
Real experiences, across different industries.
When we started, our online store was basically at a standstill: no useful historical data, few sales and an acquisition system that had to be built from scratch. Davide helped us start the right way, working on campaigns, creatives, the offer and reading the data. In 9 months we went from zero to results we didn't think we could reach that fast.

We needed to generate real business opportunities, both in the Italian market and in the US market. Davide built a far more precise lead generation system, able to speak to different audiences without losing brand authority. The results were significant, not just for the volume of leads, but for the quality of the conversations generated.

With Davide the work didn't stop at Meta Ads. We reworked the way we communicated the product, the funnel structure, the creatives, the tracking and the conversion process. That got us significant results, but above all it helped us better understand which levers were really growing the brand.
