Case studies

The thinking, decoded.

Every project read the same way — the problem, the counter-intuitive insight, the decision, and the result.

Max Map — mall navigation as recurring revenue

3D Mapping · SaaS · GCC · iMaxem
Zero-CAPEX mall partnership model
Problem
Project-based revenue doesn't scale, and malls resist paying upfront for digital transformation.
Insight
Make it zero-cost for the mall and monetize the tenants — "your store becomes discoverable where the purchase decision happens."
Decision
A B2B2B model: the mall pays nothing, shops subscribe (SaaS) — backed by a strong track record of prior work.
→ Recurring SaaS revenue targeting 40–60% tenant adoption — positioning iMaxem as the default mall-navigation infrastructure in MENA.

Max Event — events as immersive technology

Event Tech · KSA · iMaxem
Integrated event platform & AR experiences
Problem
Event organizers juggle fragmented tools — ticketing, access, analytics — and can't prove ROI.
Insight
Own the whole journey (booking → on-site QR & payment → analytics); experience plus data beats point solutions.
Decision
Positioned as an official partner to Saudi event organizers — building an effective outreach function with event companies across multiple channels, built on trust and quality.
→ Around 60% faster event setup, with proof delivered at national scale.

Dots House Studio — audience-first content

Content Studio · Spacetoon · Ongoing
An ongoing engagement with Spacetoon's exclusive creative-studio partner
Problem
A creative studio — Spacetoon's exclusive partner — with a large, diverse audience and major clients, but no precise definition of that audience.
Insight
Reach the right audience across its diverse segments, and build a community for each segment.
Decision
Built behavioral studies of the audience, clients and their experiences, then produced segment-specific content across multiple social channels.
→ A repeatable framework linking audience truth to content — and we're still working together.

Savvy — production, performance & social

Services · App · Performance
Content production & full-funnel growth
Problem
A local services brand needs cheap, trustworthy leads — fast.
Insight
In services, before/after proof and sharp local targeting beat broad reach; the booking happens in the inbox.
Decision
Produced the content and ran a full funnel (Meta-led), look-alikes from past purchasers, GA4 + Looker dashboards, with strict CPL guardrails — and built and managed a dedicated app for the customer experience.
→ Targets: CPL under $2, ROAS above 4, and +30% social growth.

Arrow — selling ERP to industrial buyers

Digital Transformation · KSA · B2B
Go-to-market for an Oracle / Odoo partner
Problem
Conservative contractors, real-estate and petroleum buyers fear ERP risk and downtime.
Insight
They don't buy software — they buy schedule integrity and risk mitigation; speak to penalties and delays, not features.
Decision
Built Sales Navigator channels on LinkedIn, Apollo and others to target B2B buyers in this sector — backed by a realistic ICP and a large, strong portfolio of prior work.
→ A B2B go-to-market that maps ERP value to industrial pain: risk, schedule and cost.

Daiana — selling a category nobody knew

GTM · Brand · Europe
Go-to-market for Dance Movement Therapy
Problem
Near-zero market awareness for the DMT category.
Insight
When awareness is zero, education is the marketing — positioned on "science + soul."
Decision
Built the brand from scratch with a first-mover authority play and an SEO + LinkedIn engine.
→ You don't sell the product, you build the belief that makes it make sense.

SHNLL Media — building a specialist marketing agency

Digital Marketing · Founding Partner · Egypt
A digital agency focused on medical, cosmetics & physician brands
Problem
Clinics, cosmetics brands and individual doctors in Egypt had strong expertise, but marketing that looked and performed like everyone else's.
Insight
In healthcare and beauty, trust converts — and trust is built with real content and proof, not generic ad templates.
Decision
Co-founded SHNLL Media — a full digital-marketing agency serving the medical, cosmetics and physician-brand space, producing effective content and documentary-style films alongside SEO, branding and social.
→ A specialist agency for medical & beauty brands — shnllmedia.com

Nilco — an Egyptian export house entering the Balkans

Agri-Export · Serbia & Balkans · B2B
Full marketing ownership for a new-market entry
Problem
Nilco — an Egyptian exporter of dates, mangoes and premium agri-products — had zero brand recognition among supermarket chains, importers and restaurant groups in Serbia and the wider Balkans.
Insight
In B2B food export, buyers don't buy taste on a promise — they buy provable cold-chain integrity and traceability before the first order.
Decision
Leading marketing for Nilco end-to-end across Europe and the Balkans — positioning, content and channel strategy built around harvest-to-port traceability and fair-sourcing credentials.
→ Building market presence and buyer trust for an Egyptian export house in a region with no prior awareness of the brand.

Al-Fustat Al-Ilmeya — direct access to a German principal

Medical & Lab Distribution · Germany & Europe · Exclusive Agent
Exclusive Egyptian agent for Analyticon (Germany)
Problem
As Analyticon's exclusive agent in Egypt, Al-Fustat had the distribution rights but no direct line into the German manufacturer's own network.
Insight
In specialised medical and lab distribution, an agent's leverage comes from direct relationships with the principal's ecosystem — not the paper agreement alone.
Decision
Built an effective outreach network with German entities and partners across Europe on Al-Fustat's behalf, strengthening its position as Analyticon's exclusive agent.
→ A direct, working relationship with the German principal's network — turning a distribution agreement into an active partnership.

Niral Beauty — a curated K-beauty store

E-commerce · Beauty · In build
Beauty & cosmetics platform (currently building)
Problem
Egypt's beauty buyer is overwhelmed by choice and unsure what's authentic.
Insight
In beauty, people buy trust and identity — not ingredients; curation, education and social proof convert better than discounts.
Decision
Building a curated store for Egyptian and Korean beauty products (200+ SKUs, laser devices), under specialized medical supervision in Egypt, with a content and social-led growth engine.
→ In active build — niral.shnllmedia.com
