Nikolay Kibkalo.$20,000 from Meta Ads in Denver, CO
The situation
Nikolay runs his own studio in Denver. He does incredible color work - anime, pop culture, characters. The kind of vibrant, detailed stuff that instantly stops your scroll.
His work was never the problem. Bookings were coming in, but never far enough in advance to give him any real peace of mind. One week he’d be fully booked, the next- total question mark. Before finding us, he’d already tried three or four different agencies. Spent months with some of them, waited for things to click, and eventually moved on when the results just weren’t there.
Then he saw our ad, hit us up, and we got to talking. He decided to give it one more shot.
He’s been with us ever since. Recently he told us we’re the best team he’s ever worked with - not just because the numbers are there, but because we actually give a damn about how he’s doing.
The artist’s work
Scope of work
Nikolay had already worked with multiple agencies, but none could give him long-term stability. He came to us looking for a team he could actually trust to keep his schedule consistently full.
- 01
Campaign testing & strategy
With four agencies in his past, we needed to reset the approach entirely. We tested different angles in the Denver market to build a predictable, steady stream of high-intent clients instead of random weekly spikes.
- 02
Creative testing
Nikolay’s color, anime, and pop-culture pieces are naturally eye-catching. We tested various creative formats to showcase that level of detail, finding the exact style that made potential clients stop scrolling and book.
- 03
Profile & DM review
Great ads are only half the battle. We looked at his profile and sales process to make sure every new inquiry felt genuinely cared for - turning casual messaging into long-term booked clients.
Creatives we shipped
Results
These results are from just one of the many months we’ve been working together. At one point, Nikolay even asked us to scale back the budget - the volume just got too much to handle.
