Education Krasnodar, Russia Yandex Direct August - October 2023

Krasnodar driving school: 34 enrolments in three months

Yandex Direct generated 126 inquiries at 889₽ and 34 course sales, with 1.03M₽ recorded revenue over three months

The problem

Local schools offered comparable prices, vehicles and programmes. A general invitation to learn to drive did not explain why a student should choose this school

What we changed

Campaigns explained the client's contractual promise to continue teaching without an extra charge after an unsuccessful first exam, training in the same vehicle model used for the exam, and a 1.5-month intensive option. Offers and schedules were separated for students, working adults and parents

Context

A driving school in Krasnodar competed with more than 30 schools whose courses were priced around 30K-35K₽. Comparable programmes and vehicles made it difficult to stand out through a general brand message

Campaign approach

Specific search needs. Yandex Direct campaigns covered intensive tuition and concerns about passing the exam. The advertisements explained the client’s actual course terms

Clear contractual support. The offer stated that tuition would continue without an additional charge if a student did not pass the first exam. It described the school’s commitment, rather than promising an outcome controlled by the examiner

Different schedules. Students saw holiday-intensive and student-price options. Working adults saw evening and weekend groups. Parents saw the shorter 1.5-month option

Familiar vehicle model. Training in the same model used for the exam addressed a practical concern raised by prospective students

Results

During August-October 2023, the campaign produced 126 inquiries at 889₽ and 34 course sales. Recorded revenue was 1.03M₽, with approximately 110K₽ of ad spend reported in the source. The inquiry-to-purchase conversion was about 27%
