Build your own
digital marketing team.

Agency vs your own team

A marketing agency works for many.
Your team works only for you.

Agencies split their best people across dozens of clients and bill you a retainer for the leftovers. We build you a dedicated marketing team you interview, direct and keep — for a fraction of the cost.

A typical digital marketing agency

  • Shared across dozens of other clients
  • Junior staff quietly do your account
  • A monthly retainer for unclear output
  • You don't own the accounts or the data
  • Slow, ticket-based turnaround
  • Costs climb every time you scope more
Up to 70% less

Your dedicated team, built by us

  • Full-time, dedicated to your brand only
  • Hand-picked specialists you interview
  • One clear monthly cost per person
  • You own every account, asset and result
  • Sits in your stand-ups, works your hours
  • Payroll, compliance & HR handled by us

Layla A. Founder & CEO D2C beauty brand · Dubai
Founder, D2C beauty brand
“We were paying an agency AED 22k a month and still chasing them. Three dedicated marketers later, our ROAS is up and everything finally sits in-house.”

Featured client story

3 marketers in January.
A full growth team by Q4.

A fast-growing D2C beauty brand in Dubai was burning budget on a marketing agency that treated them like account number forty-one. They wanted their own team — without building an HR function to get one.

They started with a performance marketer, an SEO specialist and a content marketer. Nine months on, that team is eleven people covering paid, social, content, email, design and analytics — all dedicated, all employed by us.

The economics

An agency retainer buys you a slice of a team. The same budget buys you a whole one.

A digital marketing agency in the UAE typically charges AED 15,000–30,000 a month for shared, part-time attention. For less, you can have full-time specialists who work only for you.
