    Context

    The company does turnkey apartment renovations in St. Petersburg, the average bill is ~1.5 million rubles. Advertising was already running, but the requests were expensive and unstable: there were a lot of requests “just to find out the price,” the sales department was drowning in cold leads, and it was impossible to plan revenue.

    Insight

    When I looked at the transactions for the year, it turned out that the money was brought in not by those who first asked the price, but by those who managed to look at the portfolio and got to the measurement. The main loss was not in advertising, but at the junction “left a request → a surveyor came out”: while the manager was getting ready to call back, the client went to those who responded faster. The bottleneck is the speed and quality of the first touch, not the volume of traffic.

    Solution

    Rebuilt the funnel around a quick first touch. Advertising links were tailored to warm requests - “turnkey renovation”, design project, specific residential complexes; added quiz and auto-response to instantly qualify targets and book them for measurement, and cut off non-targets before the call. The sales department has been relieved of the burden of cold leads - managers began to work only with those who have passed the qualifications.

    Result

    Revenue increased 4.18 times - from 17 to 71 million rubles per year. The number of applications increased by 1039%, and at the same time each fell in price by 73%, and the return on advertising increased by 577%. The growth was not based on a one-time budget fill, but on the system: cheap targeted application → quick response → qualification before measurement. Below is how the numbers changed by month.
    Applications by month, pcs.31 → 353 · +1039%

    What does this mean for business: the flow of applications has become predictable and growing - the sales department can be planned and scaled, rather than putting out fires.

    Application cost, ₽4 180 → 1 130 ₽ · −73%

    What does this mean for business: the same budget brings in many times more applications - advertising pays off, and does not “eat up” the margin.

    Revenue by month, RUB million×4.18 per year

    What does this mean for business: revenue growth is a consequence of the system, and not a seasonal surge: over the year, monthly revenue increased from 2.6 to 9.1 million rubles.

    KapitalStroy — ₽19m in contracts from Avito

    Context

    Yandex Direct and VK enquiries fell short of the marketing plan. We added Avito as another source of turnkey apartment renovation customers in Tambov.

    Insight

    The competitor sample contained similar promises. Our presentation focused on people, finished interiors and a clear explanation of the service.

    Solution

    I managed Avito end to end: audience and competitor research, profile design, ad setup and testing for different renovation categories. We added selfies, videos and service details.

    Result

    AmoCRM recorded 10 contracts worth ₽19,040,062. Avito spend was ₽550,000, or ₽55,000 per contract. The platform dashboard recorded 520 contacts over the year.

    YOHOM - country houses, Ivanovo

    Context

    Sale of country houses, dachas and cottages. The goal is to bring in applications from people who are really looking for a house outside the city, and not “cold” views.

    Insight

    An analysis of the statistics showed that applications were not given by the most beautiful advertisements, but by those where the first photos immediately showed the entire house and the main figures - area, plot, turnkey price. People on the fence filter out the options in seconds and write only to those who do not have the feeling of a “hidden price”. Therefore, we repackaged the display case for a quick, understandable selection, and not for a “spectacular” presentation.

    Solution

    I designed a profile and display window for houses, dachas and cottages so that advertisements would be opened and written on. I set up and ran advertising, disabling what does not bring in applications. I analyzed the applications by numbers: you can see how much the application costs, where it comes from and which ads work better - this is the basis for further automation of processing.

    Result

    For a month - a flow of applications at a predictable price, with transparent analytics for each ad.

    Auto funnels, chatbots and AI platforms for experts and online schools

    Igor Mann MarketGuru Znanie Society Public Chamber of Moscow Megacampus Polina Marishova · Media trainer · Founder of the school @dom.rechi Polyanskaya Anastasia · Founder of the online school WOW.Marketing and other experts

    Context

    Experts and online schools in various topics - education, psychology, languages, sports, investments. There is a product, there is an audience, but sales are based on manual work: managers manually answer, warm up, and lead to payment. People get lost between messages, and some applications go cold.

    Insight

    When I sorted through the correspondence, I saw a pattern: about 40% of applications fell through not because of the price, but because of the pause before the first response - the person wrote in the evening, the manager answered in the morning, and interest faded. And those who made it to the point of purchase almost always received an answer to 2-3 specific objections: doubt about the result, price, and “will it work for me?” This means that it is not the discount that sells, but the speed of response and the removal of correct objections - exactly what can be automated.

    Solution

    I assembled turnkey automatic sales funnels: message chains, chat bots, landing pages, a connection with CRM and closed subscription clubs. The bot takes care of the first contact, qualification and warm-up - the manager is already connected to the warm client. Now I am strengthening this with artificial intelligence: I am making bots and training platforms with AI that respond meaningfully, and not according to a rigid script.

    Result

    The bot responds in seconds and works 24/7: it asks the necessary questions, removes those very objections and transfers the already warm client to the manager. The share of requests reaching payment has approximately doubled, up to 70% of routine correspondence is closed by a bot without human intervention, and the team deals only with those who are actually ready to buy.
