We report qualified leads, not form fills
Agreed in writing with your sales team before we spend anything. It makes our numbers look worse in month one and it is the only way the programme can be judged honestly.

Lead generation in Dubai, counted the way sales counts it
Almost every lead generation report in this market counts form submissions. Sales counts conversations worth having. The gap between those two numbers is where most marketing budgets quietly disappear, and closing it is most of the work.

The problem
A lead is not a form submission
It is a person with a budget, a need and the authority to act. Counting anything else produces reports that look healthy while the sales team says the leads are rubbish — and both sides are telling the truth.
Where lead generation breaks in this market
Nobody agreed the definition
Marketing counts submissions, sales counts opportunities, and neither wrote the definition down. Until both sides sign one sentence describing a qualified lead, every monthly report is an argument rather than a measurement.
The form is the finish line
A lead arrives, sits in an inbox, and gets called two days later — by which time they have spoken to three competitors. Speed to first contact moves close rates more than almost any targeting change, and it is a process problem rather than a marketing one.
Cheap leads win the budget
Optimise to cost per lead and money flows to whatever produces the most cheap enquiries, which is usually the least qualified traffic. Without value per lead in the model, the reporting actively rewards the wrong channel.
Nothing is joined to revenue
Ad platforms report conversions, the CRM reports deals, and nothing credibly connects them. So the channel that generated the loudest number gets credit and the one that generated the revenue gets cut.
What is included
What we actually do here
The generation and the plumbing behind it, because leads that arrive badly are not leads.
Defining a qualified lead
One sentence, agreed by marketing and sales in writing, with the fields that evidence it. Everything else depends on this and it takes about ninety minutes. Skipping it is why most lead generation engagements end in a dispute.
Paid acquisition
Google Search where intent already exists, paid social where it has to be created, and the discipline to stop what is not converting to qualified. Managed to cost per qualified lead, never to volume.
Organic and content
The pages that answer buying questions and keep producing enquiries after the ad budget stops. Slower, and the only part of the programme that compounds.
Landing pages and conversion
The page the traffic lands on decides most of the result. Message match, one clear action, a form that asks only what qualification needs, and speed on a mid-range Android.
Forms, routing and speed to lead
Straight into the CRM, assigned to a person, with a notification that actually gets seen. The target is minutes, not days. This alone regularly moves close rates more than retargeting does.
Lead scoring and nurture
Not every enquiry is ready. Scoring decides who sales calls first, and a nurture sequence holds the rest without a human touching them until they are worth a call.
CRM and pipeline
Stages that mean something, fields sales will actually fill in, and reporting that runs from source through to closed revenue. We are a HubSpot partner and build this properly.
Reporting to revenue
One view: spend, qualified leads, opportunities, closed revenue, by source. When that exists the budget argument stops being an opinion.

How we work
How the programme runs
The first two weeks are definitions and plumbing. Spending before that is how you buy leads nobody calls.
What counts as a lead
One written definition agreed by both sides, the fields that evidence it, and the response-time commitment sales will hold to. Ninety minutes of work that decides whether the whole programme can be measured.
- Written qualified-lead definition
- Required qualification fields
- Speed-to-contact commitment
- Value per lead from your own data
Making the pipe work before filling it
Forms into the CRM, routing to a named owner, notifications that get seen, stages that mean something, and tracking that survives to closed revenue. Boring, and it is where the return actually comes from.
- Forms to CRM with source captured
- Routing and SLA alerting
- Pipeline stages agreed with sales
- Tracking verified end to end
Paid and organic together
Paid for demand that already exists, organic for the demand that compounds. Both managed to qualified leads rather than to volume, with weekly pruning of what is not working.
- Search and paid social live
- Landing pages built and tested
- Weekly optimisation against qualified
- Organic pages published in parallel
Where the compounding happens
Score, nurture, test, and cut. Monthly review against closed revenue by source, not against a leads-this-month number that nobody can act on.
- Lead scoring live
- Nurture for the not-yet-ready
- Continuous landing page testing
- Monthly review against closed revenue
Why us
Why our lead generation is different
Mostly because we refuse to report the number that makes us look best.
The CRM is part of the build, not an afterthought
HubSpot partner. Leads land in the system, routed to a person, with the source attached and reporting that reaches closed revenue. Most agencies stop at the form.
Speed to first contact is treated as a metric
Minutes, not days, with alerting to make it happen. It moves close rates more than most targeting work, and it costs nothing but process.
Paid and organic budgeted together
Paid buys the demand that exists now, organic builds the demand that keeps producing after the budget stops. Running them in separate silos is how you pay for the same lead twice.

Questions
Lead generation, answered plainly
Starting with cost per lead, which is what Google shows people asking most.
Management runs AED 8,000 to AED 35,000 a month depending on channel count and complexity, plus your media spend. Cost per qualified lead varies enormously by category: a low-value consumer service might be AED 40 to AED 150, a considered B2B purchase AED 400 to AED 2,000. Anyone quoting a cost per lead before knowing your category is guessing. These are market ranges, not a rate card.
The only useful answer is: less than what a lead is worth to you. Work back from margin and close rate — if a customer is worth AED 8,000 in margin and you close one in ten qualified leads, a lead is worth AED 800 and paying AED 300 is excellent. Benchmarks from other people's businesses are noise.
No. Pay-per-lead arrangements push the supplier toward volume and toward the loosest possible definition of a lead, which is the exact problem this page is about. We charge for the work and report against a definition your sales team signed.
Whatever you and your sales team agree in writing before we start, evidenced by fields on the record. Typically a real business, a stated need, a budget range and authority to proceed. The definition matters more than where it is set.
Source captured on the record at submission, carried through the CRM to closed deal, and where the platform supports it, offline conversions imported back so bidding optimises toward what closed rather than what enquired.
Both, budgeted together. Paid captures demand that exists today and stops the day you stop paying. Organic is slower and keeps producing. Running them as separate programmes is how businesses end up paying twice for the same buyer.
No. Purchased lists in this market are usually stale, often not consented, and they damage domain reputation for the email programme you actually want to run. Outbound prospecting to a researched list is a different thing and sits under sales consulting.
Paid search can produce enquiries in the first fortnight once tracking is verified. Qualified volume stabilises around month two to three as targeting tightens. Organic contributes meaningfully from month four to six. Anyone promising qualified pipeline in week one is selling form fills.
Ninety minutes to agree the lead definition, a commitment on response time, and willingness to mark outcomes in the CRM. Without that last one nothing can be optimised toward revenue and we are back to counting submissions.
Then either the definition was wrong or the targeting was, and both are our problem to fix. That is precisely why the definition is agreed in writing first — it makes the conversation a diagnosis instead of a dispute.
No questions match — try another search.
