Digital Arab Agency sets up email, WhatsApp and CRM automation for businesses in Dubai, the UAE and Qatar. Every new lead gets a fast reply, every customer gets the right follow-up, and your team stops doing the same tasks by hand. Automation setup starts from AED 4,000.
OUR PROCESS
Most automation projects fail for simple reasons: the customer journey was never mapped, the data is messy, and nobody looks after the system once it’s live. We fix those three things first.
01
We map every step from first enquiry to repeat purchase, and decide where an automatic message actually helps.
02
HubSpot, Zoho, Klaviyo, Salesforce or another tool, chosen for your team size, budget and existing systems, then connected to your website, forms, WhatsApp and store.
03
Emails, WhatsApp messages and tasks written in English and Arabic, with triggers, delays and conditions set for each audience.
04
We test every workflow before launch, then track opens, replies, sales and revenue from automation, and improve it every month.
