Today I’m excited to share the results of a high-performing nutra campaign I ran in Thailand — one that pulled in nearly $10K in profit and maintained a 76% ROI. This one is a great example of how a well-chosen offer, the right ad formats, and smart traffic optimization can combine to produce serious results.
I kicked things off in mid-December 2018 with a clear objective: tap into the high-potential Asian nutra market, specifically Thailand, and find the sweet spot between volume and profitability.
After some initial research, I narrowed my choices down to three popular nutra offers that were being advertised heavily across the region:
All three were running with a similar high-engagement lander style, so the key was to find out which one would give me the best margins at scale.
My first step was to test every banner size I could get my hands on. Across the board, the traffic source I used — Exoclick — delivered strong volume, but I quickly found two standout ad sizes that drove the bulk of the clicks:
During these tests, ACE from my affiliate network clearly emerged as the top performer. It not only brought in more leads but also delivered the highest profit margin.
Once I confirmed the campaign’s profitability, I decided to make use of one of Exoclick’s most underutilized features — automated bidder mode.
This tool allowed me to set optimization rules so the system could automatically adjust bids based on performance. The beauty of it is you only have to set it up once. From there, it works in the background, cutting wasted spend and pushing more budget toward the highest-performing placements.
I wasn’t exaggerating when I said you could “make money without using your brain” — after the setup, my involvement was minimal, and the campaign kept running profitably.
Here’s the breakdown from January 1, 2019, to April 10, 2019:
In the first month alone, the campaign produced over 300% ROI — an outstanding start.
Naturally, performance tapered off over time due to banner fatigue. This is a common challenge with long-running campaigns, especially with static creative formats like banners. However, by the time conversions started to slow down, the campaign had already banked nearly $10K in profit.
The takeaway here is clear:
This was a perfect example of how pairing the right nutra offer with a high-volume traffic source like Exoclick can generate exceptional results — if you’re willing to test, optimize, and scale methodically.
The Setup
I kicked things off in mid-December 2018 with a clear objective: tap into the high-potential Asian nutra market, specifically Thailand, and find the sweet spot between volume and profitability.
After some initial research, I narrowed my choices down to three popular nutra offers that were being advertised heavily across the region:
- Atlant Gel
- Hammer of Thor
- ACE (TH)
All three were running with a similar high-engagement lander style, so the key was to find out which one would give me the best margins at scale.
Testing & Initial Findings
My first step was to test every banner size I could get my hands on. Across the board, the traffic source I used — Exoclick — delivered strong volume, but I quickly found two standout ad sizes that drove the bulk of the clicks:
- 300x250
- 300x100
During these tests, ACE from my affiliate network clearly emerged as the top performer. It not only brought in more leads but also delivered the highest profit margin.
The Secret Weapon — Automated Bidding
Once I confirmed the campaign’s profitability, I decided to make use of one of Exoclick’s most underutilized features — automated bidder mode.
This tool allowed me to set optimization rules so the system could automatically adjust bids based on performance. The beauty of it is you only have to set it up once. From there, it works in the background, cutting wasted spend and pushing more budget toward the highest-performing placements.

The Numbers
Here’s the breakdown from January 1, 2019, to April 10, 2019:
- Budget Spent: $12,736
- Total Earnings: $22,472
- Profit: $9,736
- ROI: 76%
- Cost per Lead: $9.48
- Payout per Lead: $32
In the first month alone, the campaign produced over 300% ROI — an outstanding start.
The Decline & Takeaways
Naturally, performance tapered off over time due to banner fatigue. This is a common challenge with long-running campaigns, especially with static creative formats like banners. However, by the time conversions started to slow down, the campaign had already banked nearly $10K in profit.
The takeaway here is clear:
- Test widely, but scale only the best-performing combination of offer + traffic + creative.
- Use automation tools when available — they save you hours and prevent human error.
- Accept that most campaigns have a lifespan; extract as much value as possible before fatigue sets in.
This was a perfect example of how pairing the right nutra offer with a high-volume traffic source like Exoclick can generate exceptional results — if you’re willing to test, optimize, and scale methodically.
