Complete and utter nonsense. Admittedly the drug policy is strict here although you'll find a lot of people who smoke weed. Alcohol is openly available in hotels, clubs, and your own home. Dubai is more tolerant of women than most other places in the world, to be honest. There are still some...

Dubai is one of the greatest places I've lived. Business is still very much based on who you know which means that while some companies take a year to get a few clients if you know how to make friends you can outpace everyone before you even know you exist. I moved here right in the middle of...

The market has corrected post-covid pretty much entirely. Demand remains high for villas with apartments slightly lagging. The market will likely overvalue during Expo and then correct again a quarter after the close of Expo. I'm expecting prices to start rising in just over a month, rents will...

Real estate agencies here are something else. 90% of the off-plan developments are cheap pump & dump schemes and ethics don't seem to have been imported. There's a huge amount of money to be made in real estate but I would want to be here on the ground and dealing directly instead of through one...

You're right, my main business is based on media buying for TikTok. The sheer amount of money I've spent is what my answer is based on. The only clients I have that are targeting brand awareness are two Fortune500 companies both of whom have launched new sub-brands. Everyone else is running...

You should be able to just engage an attorney for an hour or two for a consultation. Obviously, it's easier if you already have a relationship. If not, just phone and say that you're looking for a few hours of consulting about X. Depending on what advice you need, you might need to speak to...

The title says it all. We need verified lead lists for marketing decision-makers for local businesses in a variety of niches. Looking for a VA or someone else who can get us that data.

Agree with all of the above. TikTok is incredibly valuable for lower-funnel objectives as well as brand awareness.

TikTok ads work full funnel. Good for brand awareness but also very powerful for sale conversion events. DTC & E-commerce can see the same if not better results than Facebook. TikTok is all about testing creative. 99% of campaigns setup will just fail miserably without the right creative. If...

Bootstrapped influencer marketing is solid and still works despite what people say. Mass DMs will do well with the right targeting. Do those to get cash in the bank and then scale with paid media.

I think this thread is starting to get fun

If your ads are white-hat, you really shouldn't be having a probably. Make sure any music in ads doesn't contain profanity as they're tough on that policy. I've always found their standard support teams to be very helpful unlike Facebook and Snap's account managers are some of the best people...

Behind the scenes content does very well (showing you taking a photo) with the end results either at the end or posted on your Instagram for that sweet, sweet cross-promotion. if you don't have anyone to film for you, it becomes more difficult. If you only do photography and not videography...

If there's nothing else it could be like IP, location, etc, it's most likely the batch release algorithm has determined that people from Asia have an affinity to engage with your content. That will influence how TikTok pushes the video out in the future. If the account is relatively new, this...

^This Traffic source is a major factor and that's something that can't be faked. If you have 1k fake views with 125% watch time and then 1k views from the FYP with 10% watch time, it's pretty obvious.

We're looking for a full website design either based on Wordpress or a fully-custom back end (undecided on this at the moment) but are looking to make it very design heavy. We really want to make the most three.js and similar technologies like WebGL to make a visually stunning site. The website...

One of the big things generally to remember with TikTok is, even internally, a lot of their processes are a total mess. The company is relatively opaque with its procedures and there are very few policies as to who is eligible for what and what certain accounts have access to. For example, in...

Yes. Different regions work differently and I am technically 'managed' by 2 different regions but my general understanding is that there are some accounts that have access to client support and can therefore make 'requests' and then above that are formally managed accounts. For example, I have...

Singapore will probably be your best bet. Easy company formation at a relatively good price for offshore & some bank accounts don't require physical opening. Good, stable economy too. Stripe & similar will also service SG companies. Dubai is also good but more paperwork for certain things. What...

Let's give it a shot. Interested to try.
