Frequently Asked Questions

10+ years of real UAE execution, founder-led strategy, compliant funnels for regulated industries, and work that is never outsourced or templated. We have run campaigns across the region's toughest sectors — real estate, healthcare, legal, finance — and we tie everything to revenue, not vanity metrics.

Headquartered in Dubai, UAE, with additional offices in Lahore, London, Kuala Lumpur, and Wyoming. Our 5-office network lets us support cross-market campaigns and follow-the-sun execution.

Desiro Growth is a project of Desiro Advertising, which has 10+ years of on-ground UAE performance marketing experience across regulated and high-value industries.

Primarily 12 core industries — aesthetic clinics, real estate, education, accounting/tax, company formation, legal, home services, healthcare, finance/mortgage, hospitality, automotive, and insurance — plus ecommerce brands. We evaluate other sectors case-by-case.

Yes. Our 5-office global network supports cross-market campaigns, particularly across the UAE–Pakistan corridor and beyond. Strategy, creative, and media buying are coordinated across offices so messaging stays consistent while localization is handled locally.

Both. We tailor strategy and budget recommendations to your stage — whether you are launching a new brand or scaling an established one. During your audit we assess funnel maturity and recommend an engagement that fits where you are today.

Fill out the contact form, WhatsApp us, or book a call. We will follow up with a free growth audit covering your current funnel, competitive landscape, and a clear proposal — no obligation to proceed.

Marketing typically runs 5–10% of revenue, but where you spend matters as much as how much. We help you allocate budget across channels and funnel stages wisely during your audit, based on your industry benchmarks and growth targets.

Retainer, hybrid, or performance-based pricing depending on your industry and funnel maturity. Retainer is most common for established funnels; hybrid and performance-based structures are available for industries where we have strong historical benchmark data. See our Lead Generation page for details.

We recommend a minimum 3-month engagement to properly test and optimize a funnel — shorter engagements do not give campaigns enough data to reach efficient performance. Exact terms, including flexibility around this, are discussed during your audit.

All prices are subject to 5% UAE VAT unless specified otherwise. Any quote or proposal we share will clearly state whether VAT is included or added on top.

Yes. We work on monthly retainers for clients who need ongoing strategy and execution, with flexible terms discussed per project. Retainer arrangements typically include a defined scope of work, reporting cadence, and quarterly strategy reviews.

Changes can be made with written notice — we will discuss specific terms before you sign anything. We would rather adjust a campaign that is not fitting your needs than keep spending on the wrong approach.

Paid campaigns typically show initial results within 2–4 weeks — leads, bookings, or revenue depending on your funnel. SEO and organic growth compound over 3–6 months. We set realistic expectations during onboarding based on your industry, budget, and current funnel state.

Access to relevant ad accounts, brand assets (logo, brand guidelines, photography if available), and a clear picture of your ideal customer. We guide you through exactly what is needed during onboarding — nothing is left vague, and we have an onboarding checklist ready for your team.

Yes. Transparent reporting tied to real metrics — conversions and revenue, not just impressions or reach. You get access to a live dashboard plus regular review calls so you always know what is working and what is being adjusted.

Reporting cadence is agreed upfront — typically weekly updates with monthly strategy reviews, adjusted to your preference. For high-spend or launch-phase campaigns we can move to a more frequent cadence until things stabilize.

Yes. Every engagement starts with a free growth audit and a clear proposal before any commitment. The proposal outlines recommended channels, budget allocation, expected timeline, and pricing — so you can make an informed decision.

We diagnose and adjust — creative, targeting, or funnel changes — rather than just continuing to spend on what isn't working. Performance dips trigger a structured review: we isolate the variable, test a fix, and report back before scaling spend again.

Yes. All healthcare and aesthetic clinic campaigns are built to meet Dubai Health Authority advertising standards from the start — including restrictions on outcome guarantees, before/after imagery consent, and physician-title usage. Compliance is not an add-on; it is built into the campaign from the first draft.

Yes. We build compliance-aware funnels specifically for regulated sectors, including pre-qualification steps appropriate to each industry — so you receive leads that have already cleared the relevant checks before they reach your team.

This can be arranged for specific campaigns — ask your account team about bilingual content needs. Where Arabic localization is in scope, we work with native speakers to ensure the messaging is culturally accurate, not just translated.

Lead capture forms are built with data handling appropriate to each industry's compliance requirements — including consent capture, minimal-data fields, and secure transfer. For healthcare and finance clients we review data flow with your compliance team before launch.

Yes, on a case-by-case basis. If your industry has a meaningful customer lifetime value and a clear lead or sale funnel, we are open to assessing fit during your growth audit.

Yes. This is one of our core lead-generation industries — we run dedicated funnels for setup packages, PRO services, and visa-related inquiries. See our Company Formation page for details on how we structure these campaigns.

We are happy to share our UAE trade license details and can be verified via our LinkedIn company page and Google Business Profile. We can also provide references from current clients in your industry on request.

Ask what is included in the price, who actually works on your account, how reporting works, and request relevant case studies. We are happy to answer all of these upfront — transparency before signing is the baseline, not a courtesy.

No. Strategy and execution are handled by our founder-led team across our 5 global offices — not outsourced. The people who plan your campaign are the same people who build and optimize it.

Yes. Visit our Case Studies page or ask your account team for examples specific to your sector. Where we have a direct comparable, we will walk you through the funnel, budget, and results so you can judge fit for yourself.

This can be discussed during your growth audit, particularly for new industries we are building a track record in together. A pilot lets both sides validate fit and performance before committing to a longer engagement.

Both. We offer full store setup and CRO alongside paid media — so your store and your traffic are designed to work together rather than by separate teams. See our Ecommerce Growth page for the full scope.

Yes. We manage both platforms with dedicated marketplace strategy — listing optimization, sponsored ads, inventory-aware promotions, and review generation suited to each platform's algorithm and shopper behavior.

Yes, alongside Meta, TikTok, and marketplace advertising. We allocate across Google Search, Display, Performance Max, and YouTube based on where your customers are in the funnel and which format earns the spend.

Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, and Snapchat — chosen based on where your audience actually is, not a blanket presence on every platform. Channel mix is recommended during your audit and adjusted as performance data comes in.

Yes. Through creative testing, retargeting, and conversion rate optimization we work to bring CAC down over time. See our blog article on reducing CAC for specifics on the methods we apply.
