Stock that sells.Orders that pay.Clients you own.

For owners of independent jewellery, abaya, perfume and home brands — a shop, an Instagram and often a marketplace. We free the cash sleeping in stock, turn WhatsApp chaos into paid orders, and build a channel you own.

Sleepless night 1 of 3 · Cash in stock

01

Your money is on the shelves. Half the Eid collection is still in the stockroom.

My money is on the shelves. I bought for Eid and half of it is still in the stockroom.

— What we hear from brand owners

Why it hurts

  • Collections are paid months before they sell; a missed season becomes dead stock cleared at a loss
  • For jewellers the stock is gold: as gold rose 27% in 2024, UAE jewellery demand fell about 13%[1]
  • Stock lives in the POS while Instagram and WhatsApp sales live in chats — nobody sees sell-through by SKU

What we build

  • Stock-and-margin dashboard fed from your POS, Shopify, Salla or Sheet
  • Sell-through by SKU and collection, stock ageing 30 / 60 / 90 / 180 days
  • Dead-stock alert at 90 days
  • Net margin after marketplace, BNPL and courier fees
  • Monday “reorder / clear” list, and clearance offers sent to past buyers of the same category

Your week after

Buying meetings start from data. Slow lines get cleared in week 6, not month 6.

Sleepless night 2 of 3 · WhatsApp & COD

02

80 messages a day. Half never pay. The courier brings parcels back.

I get 80 messages a day, half never pay, and the courier brings back parcels nobody opened the door for.

— What we hear from brand owners

Why it hurts

  • 65% of UAE residents contacted a business on WhatsApp in the past year — and 87% want a human, not a bot[2]
  • COD parcels come back at around 22% vs 7% for prepaid (market report)[3]
  • UAE preference for cash on delivery fell 37% in four years — many will pay upfront if asked[4]

What we build

  • WhatsApp order desk: catalogue, structured order form, automatic confirmation with order summary
  • Location-pin request before dispatch
  • Payment link (card, Tabby, Tamara) with a small prepaid incentive
  • COD re-confirmation the day before dispatch
  • Order log with status in one sheet — your team takes over on anything non-standard

Your week after

No lost DMs. Your team handles exceptions, not copy-paste.

Sleepless night 3 of 3 · Owned customers

03

Between mall rent, marketplace fees and ads, you work for everyone except you.

Between the mall rent, noon's cut and Instagram ads, I work for everyone except me.

— What we hear from brand owners

Why it hurts

  • noon's referral fee is 27% on apparel and footwear and 16% on fine jewellery up to AED 1,000[5]
  • Dubai retail rents rose 7.1% in 2025, and 14.2% on new contracts[6]
  • Repeat buyers are never re-contacted, so every drop starts again from zero

What we build

  • Arabic / English store (Shopify, Salla or Zid) with pixel and Conversions API
  • Meta, Snap and TikTok ads that send traffic to your own site
  • Opt-in customer list and new-drop broadcasts
  • Post-purchase Google review requests

Your week after

Each drop starts with a warm list. Marketplaces become a channel, not the business.

Dupes

Counterfeits undercut perfume prices and trust.[7]

Discount permits

Built to keep your brand clean.

Promotions, influencers and customer lists all have rules in the Gulf. We check them before anything goes live, so a sale never turns into a fine.

  • No revenue or ROAS promises
  • No fake reviews or fake scarcity
  • No “inspired by” dupe language
  • Discount permits checked before launch
  • Permitted influencers only
  • WhatsApp marketing to opted-in buyers only

How we start.

01Free audit · 30 min

We map how clients reach you and where time, cash and leads leak today.

02One problem first

We pick the most painful of the three above — not everything at once.

03Live in 30 days

Built on the tools you already use. Every account stays in your name.

04One number a week

We track the metrics above with you, and keep only what moves them.

008

What owners
ask us.

Instagram works for me.

Keep it. We make sure every DM becomes a paid, confirmed order.

noon brings the traffic.

Stay on noon. We move repeat buyers to a channel that doesn't cost 27%.

My customers want COD.

Fine. We confirm before dispatch and reward prepaid — and you'll see the refusal rate in a dashboard.

Agencies burned me.

Start with the stock dashboard: it's yours, and it proves value in four weeks.

I don't want bots talking to my clients.

Neither do they. Automation handles confirmations; your team still does the selling.
