The first 23 days of POSH's new Meta campaign. It has one job: to start WhatsApp chats with women near
the three outlets. RM3,466 started 717 chats at RM4.83 each, and 61% of them went past the
first message. The wudhu-friendly manicure carried the month, and the free cat-eye offer brought the cheapest chats
until it was switched off on 20 Oct.
Reporting period: 4 – 26 October 2026 (launch to date; the full month follows after 31 October)

01 · Executive summary
One job: start WhatsApp chats
This campaign is judged on the chats it starts and how far those chats go. Sales are not the measure here: bookings happen in WhatsApp and at the outlets, where Meta cannot see them.
From 4 to 26 October the campaign spent RM3,466 and started 717 WhatsApp chats at RM4.83 each,
about 31 a day. 61% of those chats (435) went past the first message, and 32% (228) reached three
or more messages. POSH's WhatsApp system matched 391 chats back to a specific ad (RM8.86 each).
The wudhu-friendly manicure carried the month: 5 ads took RM2,167 (63% of spend) and started
440 chats at RM4.93. The free cat-eye offer brought the cheapest chats (RM4.15 each) until it was switched off on 20 Oct.
Versus POSH's earlier chat ads: RM4.83 per chat now against RM11.08 across POSH's
7 chat campaigns started in 2025 (about 56% less), and 61% of chats now go past the first message against
39% then. Those campaigns ran different ads in a different season, so treat this as a reference point,
not a like-for-like test.

Bookings, deposits and outlet visits are not visible to Meta. Tagging booked chats in WhatsApp would let the next report show bookings too.

How to read it: 2,155 taps on the ads' message button turned into 717 chats.
Not every tap becomes a chat: some women open WhatsApp and do not send the first message. Of the chats that did start,
61% kept going past the first message, which is the sign of real interest in booking.
"Matched to an ad" counts the chats POSH's WhatsApp system traced back to a specific ad and reported to Meta.

What won: one picture, “The wudhu-friendly manicure”, started 389 of the
717 chats (54%) at RM4.68 each, the most of any ad. The two free cat-eye ads behind it started chats more cheaply
(RM4.03 and RM4.18) until they were switched off by 20 Oct (“off”). "REEL" and "CAROUSEL" mark video and swipe ads.

05 · What changed on 22 October
From a free cat-eye to an RM1 cat-eye
The free cat-eye ads were switched off by 20 Oct, and a new set offering cat-eye for RM1 on a first visit went live on 22 Oct.

What happened: once the free cat-eye ads stopped, Meta moved the budget to the wudhu-friendly ads, which took
84% of spend from 22 October. The new RM1 set received only RM65 in 5 days
(8% of spend) and started 4 chats, which is too little to judge it either way. With the wudhu ads carrying
the budget alone, their cost per chat rose from RM4.65 to RM5.68, and the campaign's from RM4.56 to RM6.03.

What it shows: women aged 25–44 started the most chats.
The youngest group (18–24) started chats most cheaply (RM4.11 each) and 45–54 cost the most
(RM5.57), but every age group stayed within about RM1.50 of the others, so keeping the age range wide is right.
Ads shown in WhatsApp Status started chats at RM3.54 each, the cheapest placement, though on a small budget.

Only campaigns whose goal was starting chats are compared. POSH's reach, post-engagement
and 2024 link-click campaigns did a different job, so they are left out. "—" = fewer than 10 chats.
POSH Nail Spa · October 2026 Meta Ads Report (4–26 Oct)9 / 10
09 · Next steps
What we suggest for November
Each of these is POSH's call. Chats got cheaper for two reasons: views cost about half what they did in 2025 (RM18.84 vs RM34.41 per 1,000), and more of the women who see the ads tap to write in (1.17% vs 0.73%).
Give the RM1 cat-eye set a fair test.It received RM65 in 5 days because Meta kept most of
the budget on the proven wudhu ad. A small budget of its own for one to two weeks would show whether RM1 starts chats as cheaply as the free offer did (RM4.15).
Keep the wudhu-friendly ads fresh.One picture now carries most of the budget, and its cost per chat
has started to rise (RM4.65 → RM5.68). New wudhu-friendly versions would keep it from tiring.
Reply to wudhu-friendly chats instantly.A ready set of replies for these chats, with the Tuesday in Love
halal certificate in POSH's design, is prepared and waiting for approval to switch on.
Tag booked chats in WhatsApp.Bookings are invisible to Meta. A simple "booked" tag on each chat
that books would let the next report show bookings per ad, not just chats.
Bottom line: RM3,466 over 23 days started 717 WhatsApp chats at RM4.83 each, 61% of which went past
the first message: about 56% cheaper per chat than POSH's earlier chat ads, with deeper conversations. The wudhu-friendly manicure is the engine
(440 chats); the cat-eye offer is worth a fair second test at RM1.
