We will tell you to leave a platform

How we use AI
AI for creation, optimization and reporting
Use AI where it removes delay, not where it removes judgement. Adnika applies AI to social media research, variation, pattern detection and reporting preparation, while senior specialists remain responsible for strategy, facts, cultural relevance and final decisions.
Follower count is the vanity metric this market still refuses to give up
Creation
Turn approved research, customer questions and campaign themes into more useful starting points. AI organises social media source material, surfaces content angles and adapts approved ideas for different formats. Writers, designers and strategists then verify facts and protect the brand voice. - Develop hook, caption, script and format variations from an approved brief. - Adapt approved ideas for selected channels and Arabic-speaking audiences. - Keep human review for accuracy, tone and cultural relevance.
Optimization
Analyse social media patterns across creative, audiences, placements, publishing times and results. AI-assisted analysis flags fatigue, anomalies and combinations worth testing. A performance social media specialist decides what to change, scale or stop. - Compare creative, audience and placement performance. - Identify declining results and emerging opportunities sooner. - Prioritise tests by likely commercial impact. - Protect social media budget from reactive, unstructured changes.
Reporting
Convert social media channel data into a concise explanation of what moved, why it matters and what happens next. Automation reduces preparation; senior analysis connects the numbers to the agreed objective. - Consolidate organic, paid, website and CRM indicators where access allows. - Separate commercial signals from vanity metrics. - Summarise results in plain language and document the lesson. - Assign clear actions, owners and next steps.

How we work
How we run social channels
Move through four connected stages so each planning cycle becomes more focused than the last.
Agree the objective before anything is produced
Establish what each social media channel is for — awareness, community, acquisition, retention or recruitment — and write it down. A channel asked to do all five does none of them. We define the social media audience by behaviour rather than demographic, choose social media platforms by where the decision happens, and agree the success measure before the first post goes live.
- Set one primary objective per channel, in writing
- Define audience by behaviour, not by age bracket
- Select platforms by where buying decisions happen
- Agree the success metric before production begins
- Map content pillars to commercial moments
Audit what you have before adding anything
Review social media performance across the last twelve months, benchmark against direct competitors, and pull search and audience data to see where demand actually sits. This is where we assess each social media channel honestly and usually recommend leaving one or two. Being present on a network your buyers ignore costs money, attention and credibility.
- Audit 12 months of organic and paid performance
- Benchmark three named competitors, channel by channel
- Analyse social media audience overlap between platforms
- Identify which social media channels to exit, with reasoning
- Baseline every metric before we change anything
Ship on a calendar you can see
Produce, schedule and publish against an approved social media calendar you access in real time, with paid social media campaigns structured by intent and creative built natively for each feed. AI accelerates variant production; strategists approve everything before it publishes. Community management runs on an agreed response SLA, so nothing sits unanswered over a weekend.
- Publish against a live, shared social media content calendar
- Build creative natively per platform, never resized
- Structure paid campaigns by intent stage
- Manage community on an agreed response time
- Run creative tests continuously, not quarterlymunity on an agreed response time
Judge the work on the objective you set
Report monthly on the metric agreed in stage one, with pipeline data pulled from the CRM rather than social media platform-reported conversions. You get a written interpretation of what moved, what failed and what changes next month — plus practical tips social teams can apply in-house immediately.
- Report on a fixed date, every month
- Attribute enquiries through the CRM, not last click
- Separate brand and performance results explicitly
- Recommend next-month changes with expected impact
- Review strategy formally every quarter
Why us
Why our social work is narrower on purpose
Two channels done properly beats five kept alive. Most of what we are asked to fix is over-extension.
Vertical video by default
It carries almost all organic reach now. Static grids are a legacy habit in most consumer categories.
Paid feeds the CRM
Social leads that land in a spreadsheet die there. Ours land in a pipeline with follow-up attached.
Arabic as its own audience
Not a translated caption. A large share of engagement in this market never happens in English.

Questions
Social media in Dubai, answered
What brands here ask before committing to a channel.
Management retainers commonly run from around AED 6,000 a month for a single channel with modest output, to AED 25,000 and above for multi-channel work with original video production. Paid media budget is separate. The biggest cost variable is video — a retainer that includes original shooting is a different product from one that only schedules posts.
No. Bought followers damage reach because platforms measure engagement rate, and an inflated follower count lowers it. It also makes every future performance number meaningless, since you no longer know what a real audience does.
It depends entirely on the category. Instagram and TikTok for consumer, beauty, food and retail. LinkedIn for B2B and professional services, where it carries most of the real intent. Snapchat is still meaningful for younger GCC audiences and is routinely overlooked. We would rather recommend two than run five.
In most consumer categories here, yes — and written in Arabic rather than translated into it. Translated captions read as translated, which in a considered purchase costs the trust you were building. Treat it as a separate audience with its own content.
As often as you can sustain at quality. A consistent three posts a week beats an ambitious daily plan abandoned in month two, and the algorithms reward consistency far more than volume. We set cadence against production capacity, not against a competitor's feed.
Both, for different jobs. Organic builds the reason to trust you and costs time; paid buys reach and costs money. Organic reach on most platforms is now low enough that a brand relying on it alone will grow very slowly.
Whatever the channel was set up to do. For acquisition, cost per qualified enquiry. For community, saves, shares and replies. For B2B, whether the sales team can point at a conversation that started there. Reach and follower count are inputs at best.
Frequently, and it is often the best arrangement — they own the brand voice and the product knowledge, we bring production, paid and the outside view. We agree the split in writing at the start so nothing falls between us.
No questions match — try another search.
