As the client positions it:
"Our content isn’t for everyone. We focus on a modern, progressive audience. We don’t publish negativity."
To attract a new audience for future commercial interaction.
KPI: Subscriber acquisition cost between $0.10–$0.30.
We began with two pilot projects: gorod24_astana and we_project.
The agreement was: if KPIs are met, the client would allocate budget for two additional projects — gorod24_tashkent and office_creativeasia.
Before launch, I decided to test two hypotheses:
- Create ad creatives with a direct subscription offer
- Promote organic posts with the highest engagement on the profile
The main difference between we_project and gorod24_astana is their target scope:
Since the Astana budget was $100 less, I chose to promote only posts there, and for we_project — both posts and dedicated creatives.

Results – we_project:
Promoted posts outperformed creatives.
Astana's performance was slightly lower:
However, there was a noticeable difference in overall performance between the two projects, which led me to question why.
I tested many different posts in ads — most delivered similar results.
I believe the difference stemmed from audience size:
- For Astana, I could target up to 1 million users
- For we_project, the audience reached 7 million+ across Central Asia
In any case, I met the KPI — and significantly exceeded it for we_project.
we_project: $0.04 per subscriber
Office_creativeasia & gorod24_tashkent:
Since KPIs were met in the first month, the client handed over two more projects for promotion: office_creativeasia and gorod24_tashkent.
The strategy remained the same:
Results — 1st month (office_creativeasia):
Results — 1st week (gorod24_tashkent):
At first glance, the tashkent results looked promising.
However, the client noticed a trend of high unsubscribe rates.
Yes, other projects also had some churn, but not at this volume.
As a result, two weeks in, we made the decision to pause promotion for gorod24_tashkent and focus on the other three projects.
