How to Choose a
Marketing Agency
in Dubai
Most businesses in Dubai sign with the wrong agency. Not because they didn't research,
but because they didn't ask the right questions. Here are the 10 questions every UAE
business owner should ask before signing any marketing contract.
Why This Matters
We believe in
radical transparency,
so we answered every
question ourselves.
Any agency can promise results. We'd rather prove them. Below, we've answered all 10 questions
an informed UAE business owner should ask honestly and in full. Not every agency will do this.
We will, because if we're not the right fit for each other, we'd rather both know before we sign anything.

Before You Sign
Anything
These aren't trick questions, they're the minimum standard. Any agency confident in what they do should answer every single one without hesitation. We do.
We are a Dubai-based agency. Our team lives and works in the UAE. We understand the cultural nuances between Arabic and English content, UAE peak engagement times, and platform-specific compliance requirements. We have delivered results for UAE clinics, F&B brands, and retail businesses operating in this specific market.
We specialise in social media growth, paid performance, and content production for businesses that want measurable outcomes. We deliberately do not take every client. If your goal is pure SEO or web development, we will tell you honestly that you need a different partner.
Our retainers include everything: 8 reels per month, 10 posts, weekly stories, 1–2 dedicated shoots, editing, captions, scheduling, ads management, monthly strategy report, and a dedicated account manager. No hidden fees. Ad spend is separated and goes directly to the platform, we don't mark it up. Our packages start from 14,000 AED/month.
Every client receives a monthly performance report covering reach, engagement, lead volume, cost per lead, and paid ads performance. Demand Engine and Market Authority clients receive biweekly reporting. We measure outcomes that matter to your business, not vanity metrics like follower counts.
We work with six core industries: clinics and healthcare, hospitality and F&B, beauty and wellness, retail and e-commerce, B2B and education, and premium services. Each vertical has specific content strategies, compliance considerations, and audience behaviour patterns that we understand from direct experience.
Every Altara client has a dedicated account manager from day one. Strategy is led at CMO level, our Chief Marketing Officer has 14 years of experience across PropTech, SaaS, Biotech, and F&B. You will never be handed to a junior team after signing.
Our three-tier package structure: Growth Foundation, Demand Engine, and Market Authority is designed for natural progression. Clients can add services through our add-on menu: Paid Ads Scale, LinkedIn Authority, Extra Content Bank, and Landing Optimisation. We adjust strategy monthly based on performance data.
We operate on monthly retainer agreements. You own all content, accounts, and data produced during your time with us. We believe in earning your business every month, not holding you captive with contract clauses.
We generated 400 qualified leads in 6 weeks for a UAE beauty and wellness client. We built full marketing infrastructure from zero for a Dubai e-commerce brand within their first month. We ask for 90 days to show meaningful results and we track every dirham of ad spend against outcomes.
Our Growth Foundation at 14,000 AED/month includes what most agencies charge separately: full video production, content creation, paid ads management, strategy, and account management. Buying each component individually from the market would cost 20,000–35,000 AED/month. We deliver full-service value at a boutique price.
