Fractional Dubai Based CMO
From DIFC to Al Barsha, Silicon Oasis and beyond.
Location matters. Being a Fractional CMO in Dubai is different from London or San Francisco. UAE customers are diverse with different expectations about service and price.
It's not just that Dubai is different from Singapore. It's that Dubai is not monolithic. Bur Dubai, Dubai Hills and the Springs have their own personality.

Dubai Marketing Strategy
A marketing strategy for Dubai, the UAE and the wider GCC needs to be a living document. Products, pricing, distribution channels and promotional platforms all change quickly. Not having a marketing strategy or having a marketing strategy that is set in stone and never looked at or changed is a commercial risk.
AI for Marketing in Dubai
Marketing needs to be in your AI strategy. AI is not good enough yet to make marketing strategy decisions for you. AI doesn't really understand Dubai. It has an idea based on years of influencer marketing that doesn't really reflect the market. You can see it. Instagram ads with two Atlantis structures where there should only be one. You need a Fractional CMO in Dubai who understands AI.
Dubai Influencer Marketing
Yes, it's still a thing, but it is not everything. A Fractional CMO in Dubai will know that for some brands, influencers are still important, but the channels are shifting. Snapchat is still important, TikTok is growing and private WhatsApp groups have more sway than public Instagram posts or stories. Believe it or not, email still works. Make sure your Dubai Fractional CMO knows how it works.
