The problem isn't the ads themselves
Most store owners who reach us have tried one or two agencies before, and saw the same mistakes repeat.
The agency owns your accounts
The ad account and pixel are registered to the agency. Leave, and you start from zero with none of your data.
Reports without sales
A monthly report full of impressions and clicks, and nobody can tell you what each order cost.
Translated ads
Copy that doesn't sound like your customer, so they scroll right past it.
Free tool
The budget leak test
8 yes-or-no questions and an instant score out of 100, with the 3 biggest gaps in your campaigns and how to fix each one.

About us
AdStartup is a performance marketing agency built for the GCC and Egypt, with over 10 years in the region. These markets need a different approach: different buying behavior, cash on delivery, buying over WhatsApp, and seasons with their own logic. So every campaign is built on that market's own data, not Western templates.
Results only
Every meeting starts with revenue numbers. We're accountable for results, not activity.
Market depth
We understand Gulf and Egyptian shoppers: seasons, cash on delivery, and the weight of social proof.
Selective
Only 3 new clients a month, so every account gets senior attention.
Where we work
Full coverage of the GCC, with our operating base in Egypt, where we built our strongest track record.
Saudi Arabia
Campaigns across Riyadh, Jeddah and Makkah, with experience in Ramadan seasons and Vision 2030 brands.
UAE
Campaigns for Arabic and English audiences, helping brands expand into and out of the UAE.
Kuwait
Creative and bidding tuned to higher buying power and higher media costs.
Qatar
Market-entry plans for an advanced, high-value digital audience.
Bahrain
A fast-responding market, good for testing before wider GCC rollout.
Oman
Experience in fashion, food and homeware campaigns.
Egypt
Our base and deepest market: cash on delivery, delivery expectations, and seasons from Ramadan to back-to-school.
Questions we hear on every call
Why work with an agency based in Cairo?
We work Gulf business hours, Sunday to Thursday, and you reach us on a Saudi number. Our lower operating cost goes into scope: tracking included, weekly reports, and a senior contact.
Who owns the ad accounts?
You do. Every account and pixel is in your company's name and we only get access. If we stop working together, the data and campaigns stay with you, with full documentation.
What's the minimum ad budget?
SAR 8,000 a month or the equivalent. Less than that isn't enough for a real test that gives you a clear answer.EGP 15,000 a month. Less than that isn't enough for a real test that gives you a clear answer.
What happens on the free call?
We review your store and accounts beforehand from your survey answers, then show you in 30 minutes what we see and what we'd do. If we're not the right fit, we'll say so plainly.
Do I sign a long contract?
No. The program is 45 days, then month-to-month with 30 days' notice from either side.
Do your Egypt results carry over to the GCC?
The method is the same: precise tracking, fast creative testing and weekly optimization. What changes is the messaging and audience for each market.
