A training centre for dentists

2022–2023

Fifteen hundred enquiries for professional courses

The centre teaches practising dentists: courses, masterclasses, visiting speakers. We ran their marketing for close to two years — the centre as a whole, and every course in it separately.

The brief

The audience is professional and narrow: a doctor is not choosing "a course", they are choosing a particular technique and a particular speaker. Advertising a training centre does not gather those people at all.

And enrolment comes in waves: every masterclass has its own date, so the traffic is wanted by a given day rather than in an even stream.

What we did

01

Marketed the centre and its courses apart

Broad campaigns held the centre's name up; individual ones filled specific intakes and masterclasses against their dates.

02

Built the audience by profession

Ten segments in VK: job titles, universities, relevant communities, competitors, contextual targeting and the speakers' own followings.

03

Kept the creative at the pace of enrolment

At least five new pieces a month across the different subjects, plus upwards of fifteen segments on Yandex Search and its ad network against course queries.

Builds products that solve a real user problem and return measurable value to the business.

A product manager with an engineering background: he worked his way up from design engineer to running products.

Owns the product at every stage — researches what users need, shapes and prioritises the backlog, ships the MVP and grows the solution one iteration at a time. Leans on product analytics: decisions come from the data, and what shows a result is what gets scaled.

Sees to it that advertising does more than reach the right people — that it pays. Which is why CPL, ROI and cost-of-sale come first, not CTR and CPC.

Ten years in digital marketing. Four of them spent promoting concerts and festivals: she started as a copywriter, worked with content and partners, and grew into running projects. Then she realised what she liked most was paid search and paid social.

Works in media planning and analytics. She knows that behind a successful campaign are not magic and a lucky creative but dozens of spreadsheets and hundreds of rows of carefully segmented keywords and ads.

Sees to it that the social strategy does not stay in the deck but turns into content people want to watch, save and buy from.

A social media specialist with over six years behind her. She makes the content, puts the strategy together, writes the copy, and keeps every channel working on a business goal rather than merely being "run".

Produces shoots end to end — from the idea and the references to the crew, the location and the finished content — and works with influencers: finds the creators, negotiates, briefs them, tracks the results. She does not believe in collaborations for reach: if a creator doesn't fit the audience or the brand's goal, pretty numbers don't impress her.

Makes the whole site — from structure and layout through markup to deployment, with no hand-off halfway.

A web and product designer who came into design from engineering. The habit stayed: understand how the thing works first, open the layout second. He works at both ends — award-worthy creative sites, where everything rests on the idea and the motion, and complex interfaces and design systems, where everything rests on the rules.

Builds in Astro: static sites that open fast and can be edited afterwards without a developer. He owns more than the layouts and the code — the build, the fonts, the weight of images and video, caching and compression on the server, the enquiry forms. This site was made the same way.

Owns the way the studio and its clients look: identity, layouts, banners — everything the eye reaches before the text.

A graphic designer. She builds the identity and the way it lives on in layouts: logo, type pairings, colour, grid — and the rules that keep it standing once she is not in the room.

Draws the ad layouts, the decks and the content packaging for each channel. She holds that design works not when it is beautiful but when the message lands at first glance.

Sees an idea through into something real: she gathers the people, the tasks and the resources into one system and carries the project through to the result.

She can talk to everyone — the owner and the client, the designer, the developer, the contractor. She takes the chaos apart, puts it in order and tells the team exactly what we are making, why, and by when.

She holds the whole project — from the first idea and the breakdown of the work through to launch and the final numbers.
