Can you supply promoters and brand ambassadors?
Yes. We deploy trained sales promoters and brand ambassadors with product knowledge and selling skills, for in-store sampling, brand talk, exhibitions and modelling.
Do you design and build exhibition stands?
Yes. We design and fabricate exhibition stands and kiosks, and handle printing, gifts and premiums. Stands we built have appeared at exhibitions such as Gulfood and Cityscape Abu Dhabi.
Can you run a spin the wheel or scan and win campaign?
Yes. We build campaign microsites, spin the wheel and instant-win games, scan and win QR campaigns, and receipt-upload promotions. A recent example is the Clorox Spin and Win microsite for shoppers at participating Carrefour UAE stores.
Do you offer digital marketing, web design, video and photo production?
Yes. We handle it all for you. Digital marketing, social media, web design, and video and photo production are produced by our sister company, Steer Media (steermedia.com), but you deal only with us: one brief, one team and one point of contact. We build campaign microsites ourselves.
Which brands have you worked with?
Our clients include FMCG, retail and telecom brands such as Clorox, Ferrero, Kinder, P&G, Saudia, Kitco, Trek, Britannia and Capri-Sun. See the full list on the About page.
What does a brand activation agency do?
A brand activation agency plans and runs the on-the-ground side of a campaign: the stand or kiosk, the promoters, the sampling or brand talk, the permits and the reporting. Arsh Marketing does this in stores, malls and outdoor venues across the UAE.
How do I hire promoters in Dubai?
Tell us the product, the stores or venue, the dates and the type of team you need. We select and brief trained promoters, deploy them with a supervisor and report back. Send the brief on our Contact page or call +971 4 294 3878.
What is mystery shopping and what is a retail audit?
Mystery shopping scores a real customer experience by call, visit, email or survey. A retail audit records what is on the shelf: prices, stock availability, displays and competitor promotions. We offer both, with retail field training for sales floor teams.
Do you offer bulk SMS marketing in the UAE?
Yes. We run one-way and two-way SMS campaigns with customisable messages through our database across the UAE.
