THE CHALLENGE

Not just “launch sales”, but build a sales system across several tool categories at once.

Instrument Yug is an experienced family business: an offline shop, its own warehouse and a wide supplier base. The niche: hand tools, consumables and construction goods. The platform: Ozon — fierce competition and price pressure.

STAGE 1

A sales system by category

May — November 2025 · 7 months
Starting point
  • 835 SKUs, about 600 of them on sale
  • Stock in the company’s own warehouse
  • An Ozon store already running
  • Revenue ≈ ₽300–340K a month

The hard part: each category has its own sales logic and its own competition. One card template doesn’t work, and wrong positioning means zero sales.

What was missing
  • A common strategy across categories
  • Strong product cards and SEO
  • Different USPs for different products: discs ≠ trimmer line
  • Systematic work with ads, traffic and conversion
What we did
01

Analytics and strategy

  • Niche and competitor analysis
  • Range segmented by category
  • Own offers, messages and triggers for each category
02

USP by category

  • Diamond discs — cut quality, lifetime, materials
  • Trimmer line — wear resistance and price per metre
  • Hand tools — reliability and comfort
03

SEO and cards

  • Titles and descriptions for each category’s query groups
  • Cards for home users and for semi-pros
04

Visuals

  • Briefs for photos and infographics by category and use case
  • A strong USP on the first screens of the card
05

Advertising

  • Set up and optimized the campaigns
  • Moved budget into the efficient combinations
  • Lowered the cost of acquisition
06

Range and reviews

  • Dropped weak items, added SKUs with potential
  • Stepped away from direct price competition where possible
  • Systematic work with reviews and questions
Stage result
  • Out of the deep search results, higher visibility
  • Conversion up without cutting prices
  • October 2025 — ₽1,400,401, ×3.6 vs the start
  • November 2025 — ₽2,061,347, ×5.3 vs the start
STAGE 2

Profit over turnover

2026 · work continues
Situation

The work continues: cards are maintained constantly and new items are added. After a record May 2026 (₽1,935,394) turnover dropped over the summer: June — ₽1,424,616, July — ₽1,034,362.

What we did
01

Restructured costs (June → July)

  • Cost of goods −47.8%
  • Logistics −56.1%
  • Returns and cancellations −45.5%
  • Marketplace commission −26%
  • Ozon ads −16.2%
02

Next goal

  • Bring revenue volume back
  • Keep profitability at 14% or higher
  • Grow through economically efficient sales, not turnover at any cost
Stage result
  • Revenue −27% vs June, profit only −10%
  • Profitability up from 11.33% to 14.02%
  • July vs July: revenue +64%, net profit +151%

TAKEAWAYS

What worked.

A STRATEGY PER CATEGORY

Discs, trimmer line and hand tools sell differently: one card template doesn’t work, and wrong positioning means zero sales.

CONVERSION, NOT A PRICE WAR

Strong cards and SEO pulled products out of the deep search results and lifted conversion without cutting prices.

A SYSTEM, NOT A ONE-OFF

The work has gone on for over a year: cards are maintained constantly and the range keeps growing.

PROFIT OVER TURNOVER

When turnover dropped in the summer, cost control held the profit: revenue −27%, profit only −10%, profitability up to 14%.
