Advertising & Brand
Advertising & Marketing
Advertising with a clear purpose, a disciplined plan and a message worth hearing.
Advertising strategy, digital campaigns, brand communication and campaign management for businesses that want focused, measurable and responsible advertising in the UAE and beyond.
Attention is expensive and easily wasted. Many businesses spend on advertising without a defined audience, a clear proposition or a way to judge what worked. SOMAK's Advertising & Marketing division brings structure to that spend: we start with the commercial objective, decide who needs to hear what, and only then choose the channels, formats and budget that fit.
Our work spans advertising strategy, digital campaign set-up and management on major platforms, corporate advertising and brand communication, and the planning and coordination that hold multi-channel campaigns together. Because SOMAK also works across technology, trade, consulting and luxury goods, we understand the realities of B2B sales cycles, trade audiences and premium positioning, and we write and plan accordingly.
We take responsible advertising seriously. Campaigns we plan for the UAE are developed with UAE media legislation and the national media content standards in mind, including requirements on accuracy, cultural and religious respect and clear disclosure of paid content. SOMAK does not own media outlets and does not hold influencer advertiser permits; where a campaign involves creators or specialist media, we work with appropriately permitted third parties.

As we do not own media, our recommendations are based on fit for your audience, not on inventory we need to sell.

Frequently asked questions
Advertising
Important note
Advertising content intended for the UAE must comply with applicable UAE media legislation, including Federal Decree-Law No. 55 of 2023 on media regulation, the content standards issued by the national media regulator and any sector-specific rules. SOMAK Global Solutions does not own or operate media outlets and does not hold influencer or content-creator advertiser permits; where such permits are required, campaigns are delivered with appropriately permitted third parties. Campaign results depend on many factors outside our control and are not guaranteed.
Which advertising platforms do you work with?+
We plan and manage campaigns on major digital platforms, including search, social media and professional networks, and can coordinate print, outdoor or event-based activity through third-party media owners. Channel choice is driven by where your audience is and what the campaign needs to achieve.
Can you guarantee leads or sales?+
No responsible advertiser can guarantee sales or leads. What we commit to is a clear strategy, careful set-up, active management and transparent reporting against agreed KPIs, so you can see what your budget is achieving and make informed decisions about where to invest next.
Do you work with influencers and content creators?+
Influencer and creator advertising in the UAE is subject to permit requirements under UAE media regulation. SOMAK does not hold an influencer advertiser permit. Where a campaign includes creators, we can help with planning and coordination and will work only with individuals or agencies that confirm they hold the required permits.
How is the advertising budget handled?+
Media spend and our fees are agreed separately and transparently. In many cases media is paid directly to the platform from your own advertising account, which keeps you in control of spend and ownership of your data. We agree budget limits and approval steps before any campaign goes live.
What content rules apply to advertising in the UAE?+
Advertising in the UAE must comply with federal media legislation and the content standards issued by the national media regulator, as well as sector-specific rules such as those for healthcare, financial or real-estate promotion. In general, content must be accurate, respect the UAE's values and culture, and clearly identify paid promotion. We build these considerations into campaign planning and review.
