Exploring Advertising Needs in the Gulf Region's SME Landscape - in-depth interviews with business decision makers 🌍📊
Understanding Local Business Dynamics🛠️🌍 MindMarket embarked on an insightful journey into the heart of the Gulf region, focusing on Saudi Arabia and the UAE, to uncover the advertising needs and strategies of micro, small, and medium business owners. Our mission was to deepen our understanding of how these businesses utilise social media platforms to drive their growth and visibility.
Methodology: Deep Dives into Business Minds🕵️♂️📖 We selected 9 key decision-makers from each market for in-depth, 60-minute interviews. This approach allowed us to capture a granular view of their current advertising practices, challenges, and aspirations on social media platforms. Each session was designed to peel back the layers of local business strategies and digital engagement.
Cultural Nuances and Strategic Insights🌎🔍 The insights gained from these discussions were revealing. In Saudi Arabia and the UAE, SME owners expressed unique needs influenced by local culture and economic conditions. Our findings provided a detailed map of preferences and behaviours that are shaping the way businesses in these regions interact with digital platforms.
Impacting Regional Business Strategies🚀💡 The intelligence gathered has been instrumental for our client—a leading social media platform—in refining their approach and offerings to better serve the SME sector in the Gulf. By tailoring their tools and services to meet the specific needs identified through our research, they are better positioned to empower local businesses in their digital advertising journeys.
This project not only enhanced our understanding of the SME landscape in Saudi Arabia and the UAE but also reinforced MindMarket's commitment to delivering market insights that drive strategic business decisions. We continue to explore new horizons, helping businesses leverage the power of digital innovation to thrive in diverse markets.
