The Challenge
Standing Out and Converting During Ramadan
Standing Out and Converting During Ramadan
Standing Out and Converting During Ramadan
Arabian Automobiles Company (AAC), the exclusive distributor of Nissan in Dubai and Northern Emirates, wanted to generate qualified test drive leads during the ultra-competitive Ramadan season. With attention fragmented across dozens of seasonal campaigns, the team needed to break through the noise without exceeding cost-per-lead benchmarks.
Their traditional approach—relying heavily on click-to-website Meta ads—struggled with conversion quality and lacked visibility into the full lead journey. They needed a new strategy that could guarantee valid contacts, track conversion outcomes, and optimize spend based on real performance data.
