An online speech school whose founder has an audience of 1.7 million: traffic and conversion to the paid course. Behind it are two sets of AI agents, one for the company and one for marketing. They run a daily amoCRM export and reconcile analytics with sales data, and they produced the sales playbook and the half-year financial review.
Launch of a premium international brand.
Launch of a premium tequila in Russia in 2007, in a category with strict advertising restrictions: communication is built around experience, media and event marketing
Launched 2007
Tequila · FMCG
The task
Patron was launched on the Russian market in 2007, when premium tequila was an almost unknown category for buyers. Spirits cannot be advertised directly, and a premium tequila also needs explaining: how it differs from mass-market tequila and when to drink it. The job was to build recognition among a narrow audience of connoisseurs and support sales in restaurants and premium retail.
The outcome
The brand gained a clear premium positioning and a toolkit that works in a restricted category. The team applies that experience in influencer campaigns for brands where direct advertising is banned or limited.
What we did
- A brand communication platform within the category's restrictions: occasion, experience and drinking culture instead of a direct call to buy.
- Work with the on-trade and premium retail: tasting formats, venue activations, staff training.
- Work with opinion leaders in the gastronomy scene and events for a narrow, high-value audience.
- In line with the global standards of a top international brand, a 3-year programme of high-impact nightlife brand events was delivered in key cities and venues (Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk and many others). Also, activation in top international HoReCa chains: Hyatt, Marriott, Ritz Carlton, Four Seasons, Radisson, Swiss etc. A separate programme was implemented in partnership with international Duty Free
