In this case, we provided a promo code with a discount coupon to customers identified by our AI/ML system as high-risk for churn. Our goal was to use deep learning and ML algorithms to pinpoint customers who were likely to discontinue purchases with us and offer them an exclusive discount to incentivize them to stay with Metro.
We conducted an A/B test, which demonstrated with 99.83% probability of being the best variant that offering a discount coupon increases purchases by 7.2% and helps reduce customer churn by up to 10%.
We developed and implemented a specialized AI/ML churn prediction model, trained on real-world data from Metro’s e-commerce CRM system. This model identified users with a 70% probability of churn. We then conducted an A/B test, offering a 15% discount promo code to half of these users while withholding it from the other half. The results confirmed that users who received the promo code were significantly more motivated to make a purchase.
To combat e-commerce churn, we built an AI model analyzing CRM data to predict at-risk customers (70%+ accuracy). Through A/B testing, high-risk users receiving 15% discount codes showed: -Significant conversion lift; -Improved long-term engagement; -Validated predictive model. Proving ML-driven retention works, future optimizations will personalize offers by customer value.

Anvar Bogdanov has built a unique career by turning deep customer understanding into a powerful business driver. With roots in law enforcement and entrepreneurship, he has consistently applied psychological insight and structured thinking to the field of marketing. Today, as an independent consultant, Anvar leads customer development (CustDev) initiatives for businesses across the heating equipment, medical supply, and digital sectors — consistently delivering measurable sales growth and product-market alignment.
His standout contribution lies in a distinctive approach to CustDev, which he has refined into a practical framework that directly influences marketing strategy, sales funnels, and product design. Unlike traditional customer surveys, Anvar’s method uses in-depth psychological probing to uncover not only customer pain points but also subconscious drivers of purchase behavior. He carefully constructs each interview to create trust and provoke genuine insights — often culminating in the customer purchasing the product during the interview itself.

If payment is secured, the same script is reused for others. If not, the questions are refined — creating a continuous feedback loop that evolves in real time based on actual purchasing behavior. The learnings are then transformed into specific marketing triggers, updated sales scripts, blog content, and social media creatives. This system ensures that marketing speaks the language of the customer — literally using their own words, priorities, and emotions.

Thanks to this approach, Anvar has helped clients significantly increase funnel conversion rates and discover unmet customer needs, leading to the launch of new revenue-generating product lines. His strategy doesn’t just improve campaigns — it transforms businesses by putting the customer’s voice at the center of every decision.

This nomination recognizes Anvar Bogdanov’s outstanding work in creating a living, adaptive, and customer-driven marketing system that delivers both commercial success and lasting brand loyalty.

Since launching Tech Suppliers Pro on the U.S. market in September 2024, Artem Kalashnikov has increased monthly turnover by more than 50 times, scaling from modest initial shipments to consistent monthly sales of $50,000–$100,000. In less than a year of operations, he achieved a single-record shipment of $56,000 and has maintained a strong, upward growth trajectory for the company.
Artem secured official partnership and distribution agreements with leading global technology brands—including Dell, Cisco, Lenovo, Western Digital, SanDisk, MSI, and Ubiquiti—as well as with major U.S. electronics distributors such as D&H and TDSynnex. Under his leadership, the company established an active client base of 24 companies, 6 of which are now regular customers. An impressive 80% repeat client rate underscores the trust and satisfaction he has fostered through exceptional service and reliability.
Artem has successfully built a thriving eBay channel, selling over 858 products since launch. He has earned an established monthly sales limit of up to $5 million on the platform. Customer satisfaction is reflected in 208 positive reviews with a 99% positive feedback rate, confirming his reputation for operational excellence and responsive service.
Artem implemented an integrated inventory and sales management system via Inventory Source, connecting Shopify, Amazon, and eBay for real-time synchronization of stock and pricing. This automation minimized errors, accelerated order processing, and enabled the company to scale rapidly. Using Shopify as a CRM and analytics platform, he elevated operational efficiency and significantly reduced order fulfillment time. Additionally, Artem pioneered the practice of developing custom procurement lists for regular clients, which deepened customer relationships and streamlined sales cycles. Targeted advertising campaigns further ensured a consistent pipeline of new business clients.
One of the hallmarks of Artem’s leadership is his commitment to European-level customer service. This includes instant order response, proactive communication, and a personalized approach for every client. These standards quickly differentiated Tech Suppliers Pro from competitors and earned the lasting loyalty of both business clients and end customers in the highly competitive American market.

His achievements have positioned Tech Suppliers Pro as a trusted, high-performing player in the U.S. electronics distribution sector in record time.

Before this project, VTB clients could only check and update their personal data in person at a bank branch. Remote modifications were impossible due to high fraud risks, internal security concerns, and the lack of secure digital interfaces for customer interactions. However, the growth of digital services and the rise of fraud schemes involving identity theft required a secure and reliable solution for remote data management. The primary goal of the project was to create a system that would allow clients to verify and update their personal data remotely while minimizing the risk of unauthorized access and manipulation by fraudsters. To achieve this, the bank integrated its systems with the national digital profile via state services such as ESIA and SMEV. The use of National ID ensures secure identity verification through official government sources, preventing fraudsters from making unauthorized changes. Now, any update to personal data requires additional authentication through state services, significantly enhancing security. The project not only improved client access to their personal data but also significantly reduced fraud risks. When applying for a loan, mortgage, account, or bank card, the system automatically verifies client data against government records. Additionally, built-in regulatory compliance checks and interdepartmental data exchange detect suspicious activity and prevent fraudulent data modifications. The key innovation of this project is the ability to securely update personal data remotely without compromising security. By leveraging National ID, the bank ensures that it always works with accurate and verified client information, protecting customers from fraud and financial crimes. This initiative has strengthened cybersecurity and set a new standard for secure digital identity management in banking.

The Eurasian Beauty Guild (EBG) demonstrated that an email campaign doesn’t need a massive list to make a powerful impact. Targeting a niche but highly engaged audience of beauty professionals, EBG launched a personalized member email series designed to drive participation, renewals, and professional involvement — achieving exceptional engagement rates and real-world results.

Rather than relying on generic newsletters, EBG’s campaign focused on creating a sense of personal relevance and professional belonging. The emails were segmented by member status and involvement history (e.g., new member, inactive, or previously nominated), and crafted with a direct, friendly tone that reflected the Guild’s supportive values. Each message included tailored content such as member spotlights, upcoming awards deadlines, invitations to join the jury panel, and curated opportunities for public recognition.

What made the campaign stand out was its format: concise, visually clean, and action-driven, each email featured one clear call to action — whether to submit a nomination, update a profile, or book a member consultation. Personal touches, like addressing members by name and referencing past interactions, helped boost open and click-through rates well above industry averages.

Despite the relatively small database, the campaign achieved:

• Over 75% average open rate
• 40% response or click-through rate on key calls to action

The EBG’s success proves that highly focused, emotionally intelligent email marketing — even to a select group — can outperform mass campaigns when it speaks to the right people in the right way. This nomination celebrates an elegant, effective approach to community engagement through smart, human-centric email communication.
