The Hidden Problem: Your Best Conversions Are Invisible
You know the pattern. Someone sees your Facebook ad, visits your site, then calls to buy. Or they abandon their cart, get an SMS follow-up, and purchase over text. These are your highest-value customers—the ones ready to spend real money. But here's the killer: Facebook and Google think those ads failed.
Without proper attribution, your ad accounts are optimizing for the wrong people. They're chasing form-fillers and email subscribers while missing the buyers who actually pick up the phone. Phone conversions are the biggest blind spot. This isn't just about tracking—it's about money. When Facebook can't see your phone sales, it can't find more buyers like them. You're literally teaching your campaigns to find the wrong customers.
What Happens Now vs. What Could Happen
Without Cometly + Plura AI:
- Customer sees your ad and clicks
- They call or text instead of buying online
- Your AI handles the conversation perfectly
- Sale happens but Facebook sees nothing
- Algorithm thinks the ad failed
- You keep paying high CPMs for bad audiences
With Cometly + Plura AI:
- Customer sees your ad and clicks (Cometly tracks this)
- They call or text (AI recognizes them)
- AI closes the sale
- Cometly tells Facebook "that ad just made money"
- Algorithm learns what actually works
- Your CAC drops as Facebook finds more real buyers
The Technical Part (Simplified)
When someone lands on your site, Cometly creates a tracking ID. When they call or text, Plura AI captures that same ID. When they buy, Cometly sends that win back to Facebook through the Conversions API. That's it—your ads now see every conversion, not just the online ones.
Real Money Impact: What This Means for Your Campaigns
Immediate ROAS Improvements
Media buyers report shocking improvements within the first month. One e-commerce brand discovered 47% of their revenue came from phone orders that Facebook couldn't see. Once connected, their "failing" campaigns turned profitable overnight—they weren't failing, they were just blind.
The math is simple: if Facebook can see all your conversions, it optimizes better. Better optimization means lower CPMs, higher quality traffic, and dramatically lower customer acquisition costs. Agencies using this integration report CAC reductions of 40-60% within 90 days.
Cart Abandonment That Actually Works
Your cart abandonment SMS campaigns through Plura AI become attribution goldmines. Instead of Facebook thinking your retargeting failed, it sees the full journey: ad view → cart abandon → SMS recovery → purchase. This complete picture teaches your pixel exactly which audiences actually buy, even if they need a nudge.
Why Most Attribution "Solutions" Don't Work
The Shopify Attribution Problem
Shopify's attribution works great for online purchases. But the moment someone calls? Dead end. Their system can't connect phone conversations to ad campaigns. You're left guessing which campaigns drive calls versus just driving traffic.
Facebook Conversions API Alone Isn't Enough
CAPI is powerful but limited to what happens on your website. Phone calls? SMS conversations? Invisible. You're only seeing part of the picture, and Facebook is optimizing based on incomplete data. It's like teaching someone to drive while blindfolded—dangerous and expensive.
Manual Attribution Nightmares
Some agencies try tracking calls manually with UTM parameters and spreadsheets. This works for about a week before someone forgets to update the sheet. Plus, Facebook's algorithm needs real-time data to optimize, not weekly reports.

Week 1: See Your Hidden Conversions
Install Cometly's tracking (it's one line of code). Connect Plura AI to handle your calls and texts. Watch as conversions you never knew existed start appearing in your Facebook dashboard. Most advertisers discover they're 30-50% more successful than they thought.
Week 2-4: Optimization Kicks In
Facebook's algorithm starts learning from complete data. Your CPMs begin dropping as the platform finds people similar to your phone buyers, not just your email subscribers. Cart abandonment SMS campaigns through Plura AI start showing their true ROAS.
Month 2+: Compound Benefits
This is where it gets exciting. Your improved targeting leads to better quality traffic. Better traffic means higher conversion rates. Higher conversion rates mean Facebook rewards you with even lower costs. It's a virtuous cycle that competitors can't match because they're still flying blind.
Industry-Specific Wins
E-commerce & Retail
Your high-ticket items that people want to discuss before buying? Finally trackable. That customer who called about sizing then ordered? Facebook knows. The one who texted about shipping times? Counted. Your algorithms learn that people who call spend 3x more than email-only buyers.
Service Businesses
Every quote request, appointment booking, and consultation call feeds back to your campaigns. Number Verifier ensures you're only counting real phone numbers, not spam. Your lead quality skyrockets because Facebook learns the difference between tire-kickers and serious buyers.
B2B & High-Value Sales
Complex sales cycles become trackable. The prospect who saw your LinkedIn ad, visited your site, then called a week later? That attribution chain stays intact. Your sales team stops complaining about lead quality because the algorithms finally understand what a qualified lead looks like.
Common Objections (And Reality Checks)
"Our phone team doesn't use AI"
Your human team is great, but they can't pass conversion data to Facebook in real-time. Plura AI can handle overflow, after-hours, or specific call types while maintaining perfect attribution. Start small—even tracking 20% of calls transforms your campaign performance.
"We already use CallRail/CallTrackingMetrics"
Traditional call tracking tells you someone called. It doesn't tell Facebook they bought. The Plura + Cometly integration closes that loop, turning call data into conversion signals your ad platforms can actually use for optimization.
"SMS doesn't drive sales for us"
You might be surprised. Businesses using Plura AI for SMS follow-ups see 15-30% cart recovery rates with perfect attribution. More importantly, these recovered sales teach Facebook which audiences respond to retargeting, improving all your campaigns.
The Competition Advantage
While your competitors wrestle with iOS tracking loss and cookie deprecation, you're building an attribution moat. They're guessing which ads work. You know. They're optimizing for vanity metrics. You're optimizing for revenue. They see 50% of the picture. You see it all.
This isn't just about better tracking—it's about compound advantages. Every day your campaigns run with complete attribution, they get smarter. Every conversion feeds better data back to the platforms. Every optimization builds on the last. Six months from now, your CAC will be half what it is today while competitors wonder why their costs keep rising.
Getting Started Is Easier Than You Think
Forget complex implementations that take months. This integration works with your existing setup:
- Keep your Facebook Conversions API (it gets supercharged, not replaced)
- Your current campaigns keep running (they just get smarter)
- No website rebuilds or tracking overhauls required
Most advertisers are fully operational within 48 hours and seeing attribution improvements immediately.
