Case studies

Each case walks from the client’s brief to dashboard numbers: problem, what we did, result. Screenshots and tables are real; names and links are redacted. Your metrics will differ by niche and geo.

Subscriber cost by topic, €

What worked

  • A clear −40% discount delivered the best subscriber cost — €0.72 at 54k views.
  • €4–7 per 1,000 views worked best: lower — too few views; higher — subscribers get expensive.

How to read these cases

  • Each case starts from the client’s task and ends with numbers from ads.telegram.org — not “we ran ads”.
  • Screenshots, tables and subscriber cost are from real dashboards; names and links are redacted.
