Who wrote this: Big AL Consulting, a Dubai paid ads agency. This is a hiring guide; it does not rank agencies.

The short answer: choose a Jeddah marketing agency that has Saudi results in your industry, builds Arabic first, treats Snapchat and TikTok as core channels, and reports on leads and sales. A polished portfolio of brand work does not tell you whether an agency can grow revenue.

What Jeddah businesses need from an agency

  • Arabic campaigns written by native speakers, not translated from English.
  • Snapchat and TikTok, because that is where a large share of Saudi consumers spend their screen time.
  • Jeddah targeting. Campaigns built for the whole Kingdom waste budget if you only serve the Western Region.
  • Seasonal planning for Ramadan, Eid, summer and White Friday, when prices and demand swing.
  • Lead handling that includes WhatsApp and phone, where many Saudi sales close.

More questions

How should a marketing agency in Jeddah measure sales that close on WhatsApp or by phone?

It should count WhatsApp conversations and calls as leads, then mark which of them turned into sales and feed that outcome back to the ad platforms. Many Saudi purchases close in a WhatsApp chat rather than on a website, so an agency that reports only web forms misses most of the revenue it produced. Ask the question directly before signing. An agency with no answer will end up optimising campaigns toward form fills instead of the sales that matter.

What seasonal planning should a Jeddah marketing agency build into the year?

Ramadan, Eid, summer and White Friday, because prices and demand swing sharply around each of them. Creative, budgets and offers need to be ready before each period starts rather than assembled during it, and the agency should know how auction prices move at those times in Saudi Arabia. Ask for the seasonal calendar as part of the written plan, with the budget per channel for each peak, so you can see the agency has planned for Jeddah's year and not just for a launch date.
