NYC AUTISM COMMUNITY GROUP
PAID SOCIAL ADVERTISING, TICKET SALES GROWTH, CONVERSION CAMPAIGNS

NYC Autism Community Group helps families celebrate autistic children for their uniqueness by creating safe, engaging indoor and outdoor events that encourage connection, joy, and community.
Summary:
NYC Autism Community Group needed to increase ticket sales for both virtual and in-person events on a tight timeline. They were struggling to drive enough registrations and brought me in to build and manage a Meta advertising campaign that could quickly improve visibility, engagement, and conversions. The goal was to sell 500 tickets within two weeks.
We handled the campaign strategy, ad copy, creative development, audience research, and optimization across Facebook and Instagram. The focus was on building a high-performing paid social campaign that could generate fast results while keeping cost efficiency strong.
Results:

Paid Social Strategy and Campaign Execution

- Set up and optimized the Meta ad account
- Researched target audiences to improve campaign relevance and reach
- Built and managed 3 ad campaigns designed to drive ticket sales
Outcome: NYC Autism Community Group gained a focused, conversion-driven paid social campaign built to move quickly and perform under a short deadline.

Creative and Messaging Support
- Wrote paid social ad copy tailored to the audience
- Designed campaign graphics for Facebook and Instagram ads
- Built creative assets that supported both awareness and conversion
Outcome: NYC Autism Community Group received a complete ad campaign system with messaging and visuals aligned to drive action.

Ad Performance Efficiency

Ticket Sales Growth

- Grew total tickets sold from 233 to 1,193 in two weeks
