Banks · Display ads
Remind the customer who checked your home loan rate but did not apply.
Display ads for a bank means banner and retargeting adverts shown to a customer who already researched a specific product, a home loan or a deposit, on your website. They are not broad awareness banners. GullySales runs this narrowly, tied to an actual product interest already shown.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.
What display ads means
Display ads are banner images shown across other websites and apps, useful for staying visible to someone who has already seen your brand rather than for a first introduction. GullySales designs the banners, chooses where they run and checks whether they bring enquiries or just impressions.
Last updated 5 Oct 2026. Rules for this trade differ by state and professional body, and they change. We describe restrictions in general terms, so check the current position with your own council or adviser before you publish anything.
For banks
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Retargeting suits a bank's longer decision cycle”
A customer comparing home loan rates across banks over several days benefits from being reminded of your specific rate and offer, rather than treated as a one-time visitor.
“Compliance limits what a display ad can claim”
A banner advertising an interest rate needs to state it accurately and include required disclosures, which shapes both the design and the copy differently from a typical retail display ad.
“Broad awareness banners rarely justify their cost for a bank”
Unlike a consumer brand building general recognition, a bank's display advertising performs best when narrowly targeted to an existing, specific interest rather than cast wide.
What we do
What we deliver for banks.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Retargeting set for researched products
A retargeting audience built from customers who viewed a specific product page, such as a home loan rate, without submitting an enquiry.
Result: A customer who compared rates elsewhere sees your offer again.
Compliance-reviewed banner creative
Banner designs stating a rate or offer with the exact disclosures your compliance team requires, checked before any placement.
Result: Every banner says exactly what your compliance team has approved.
Narrow targeting brief per product
A targeting plan naming the specific product interest and audience for each campaign, rather than a broad brand banner.
Result: Spend goes toward a customer already showing genuine interest.
Frequency and duration limits per campaign
Written limits on how often and how long a customer sees a retargeting advertisement for a single product.
Result: A customer is reminded, not pursued.
How the result is measured
- Impressions
- Click-through rate
- Enquiries from display
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Brief for each retargeting campaign
Write one short brief per product before any banner is made, so the ad reaches the right visitor and says only what compliance has approved.
- Audience
- Name the exact page visited, such as the home loan eligibility page, and show the ad only to those visitors. One product, one audience, one brief.
- Exclusions
- Exclude existing borrowers and anyone who finished the application, so a customer does not see a loan advert after the loan is sanctioned.
- The line and the action
- One plain line about the product and one action, such as check your eligibility. Any rate, fee or eligibility wording must match what your compliance team approved.
- Disclosure wording
- Carry the approved terms line on the ad or on the page it opens, in the form compliance signs off. Do not add a claim they have not seen.
- Landing page
- Send the click to the product page the customer visited, not the home page. Open it on an ordinary phone and check the form works before the campaign starts.
- Stop rule
- Set an end date and a limit on how often one person sees the ad. Switch it off when the offer or the rate changes, or it keeps showing old terms.

How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
First
Your brief
You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.
After the brief
A conversation and a written scope
We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.
Before work starts
Baseline recorded
The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.
After the baseline
The first fix goes live
The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.
As agreed
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.
At renewal
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

Why us
Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.
Marketing and sales, as one job
Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.
The person on the first call does the work
No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.
A baseline before anything starts
Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.
The fee in writing, split three ways
Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.
No guarantees we cannot keep
The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.
