Case studies

Russia → Germany → USA — 6 years, 15+ guest spots

In 6 years Misha changed markets three times — every move meant launching ads from scratch with a new strategy for the country.

6 years of continuous work, 15+ guest spots, three markets — a from-zero launch in every new country.

Working with Eldar is easy. There's a task — we find a solution. Sometimes it feels like he cares about the result even more than I do.

Berlin, Germany — 5 years

Long-term case: relocation from Russia to Germany, audience building, guest-spot tours.

Net income grew from €4,200–5,000 to €6,000–11,000 a month, average ticket up 7x. Ads pay back 4–7x every month including team costs.

I value Eldar's work very highly. Even in a crisis he's always in touch and never leaves you alone with a problem.

Bielefeld, Germany — 1 month

Before: income had stopped abruptly and there were no summer bookings; the previous ads people had overcomplicated things.

71 inquiries and 43 deposits in one month — roughly a 10x return after team costs.

A really great result. Activity picked up again, followers came, inquiries started. Everything was comfortable, great, honest.

Amsterdam, Netherlands — 3 years

Started practically from zero — everything he has now is the result of working together.

Followers: from 1,800 to 12,300. In one month — €7,600 in bookings against about €1,000 of ad spend.

We started practically from zero. You could say everything I have now is the result of our work together.

Trier, Germany — 1 year

A tattoo studio: growing occupancy and expanding.

From 15 sessions a month to 30, then to 50–60. The studio expansion was planned for winter 2027 — it happened by autumn 2026.

Overall we've reached a more or less stable booking situation, which matters a lot in our field.

London, UK — 4 months

She was running everything herself and slipping in every area — so she delegated promotion to the team.

Booked solid 1.5–2 months ahead (3–4 working days a week, 3 clients each), and almost every inquiry converts to a client.

From day one my inquiries, followers and clients literally multiplied. Inquiries started almost on day one.

Vancouver, Canada — 9 months

Full-service management: creatives, ads, DM management and SMM all at once — so Nikita gets to just be a tattoo artist.

Booking horizon grew 4x (from a week out to a month out) — marketing now runs with almost no input from the artist.

It's comfortable working with Eldar because everything is done in a human way.

New York, USA — 1.5 years

Fewer inquiries, but higher quality ones.

Annual revenue up 25% at a $2,000 average ticket — ad spend didn't grow, only income did.

The quality of requests changed — people come specifically for my art.

Valencia, Spain — 4.5 years

Steady income in a “catastrophically bad” Spanish market, plus reaching a Spanish-speaking audience.

A stable income of about €5,000 a month and +7,000 audience over the partnership. Clients from ads run two years ago still come in.

In 2024, without our collaboration, I wouldn't have survived in Valencia with a small child.

Yekaterinburg — guest spots: Lyon, Paris, Cologne, Munich, Nuremberg

Promotion built around working guest spots away from home.

1.5 months of prep, a 5.5–5.8x return on the guest spot including team and ad budget. In 4 studios she had to add extra days.

What I liked most was how calmly the team handled force majeure on Facebook. Eldar already knows the specifics of promotion in different locations at different times of year.

Yekaterinburg — guest spots in Berlin and Amsterdam

Promoting the artist's style for specific international guest spots.

Berlin — €4,000 over 7 sessions, Amsterdam — €4,000 over 6 sessions. That's income after ads, team costs and the studio's cut.

I'm really happy with the collaboration — it helped a lot with the mortgage, and I now have a small client base in each location.

Vancouver, Canada — 2+ years

Continuing a long-term partnership, a snapshot of results at a later stage.

Every dollar spent on the team and ads pays back at least 10x every month — growth stays steady even years in.

Florida, USA — 1 year 8 months

Growing a beginner artist who started with a rough profile and a thin portfolio.

Booked out 4 months ahead, dropped small pieces in favor of large projects, average price grew from $1,000 to $1,800.

Vancouver, Canada — 1 year

Full-cycle work: ads plus DM management (inquiry intake, booking, follow-up).

10,000+ new targeted followers in a year, a longer booking horizon — the client says booking is now one less thing to worry about.

Guest spot in France

A strong-portfolio artist started posting regularly, and traffic was pointed at the account.

€400 spend, €8,100 revenue — an 8x return.

Regular trips: France, Netherlands, Germany

An episodic model — engagement starts 1–2 months before each Europe tour stop.

A flexible format built around a touring schedule, a predictable upside every time, sometimes beating plan.

Kraków, Poland — 1.5 years

Promoting a large-scale-piece artist through a long audience warm-up.

"Followers first, clients later" holds up even in a market with a long decision cycle.

Nuremberg, Germany — 2 years

A "case without numbers" — focused on quality, not stats.

No longer embarrassed by the production quality of her work, a steady booking level.

Stuttgart, Germany — 3 months

An early snapshot at the start of the partnership.

Early but already visible booking growth in a new region.

London, UK — 1 month

A fast start for a new client.

Already confident enough after month one to raise prices.

London, UK — 2 months

Starting fresh after working with other marketers.

The client says she wishes she'd started with Eldar sooner — a strong trust signal.

Guest spot in Paris — 4 months (handle hidden in the story)

Promotion for one specific guest-spot trip.

The story carousel shows creatives and mid-campaign results for that guest-spot run.

Vilnius, Lithuania — 10+ guest-spot trips (handle not shown in the story)

Ongoing guest-spot touring as the main way of working.

Guest-spot slots are almost always fully booked in advance.

Vancouver, Canada — 1 year (handle not shown in the story)

Growing the artist as an independent business, not just a tattooer.

Steady, quality client flow and growth as a business owner, not only as an artist.
