Ask us on a call

How is Velocity different from a B2B marketing agency?

Traditional B2B agencies build websites and manage social accounts. We build lead generation systems with measurable pipeline attribution. Our team comes from high-growth companies like Uber, Careem, SWVL, and noon, so we think in terms of cost per lead, conversion rates, and pipeline velocity, not just brand awareness metrics.

Working with us

How much does a B2B growth engagement cost?

It depends on what you need, so it is agreed on a call once we understand the problem.

What results can we expect in the first 30 days?

In the first 30 days, we typically deliver a complete digital audit, launch initial LinkedIn and Google campaigns, set up tracking infrastructure, and begin content development. Quick wins often include website conversion improvements, retargeting activation, and lead capture optimization. B2B pipeline impact compounds over 60 to 90 days as content gains traction and nurture sequences mature.

Can we start with a pilot project?

Absolutely. Our B2B Growth Sprint is designed as a low-risk entry point. It is a 30-day engagement with clear deliverables and measurable outcomes. Many of our long-term B2B partnerships started as sprints where we proved the value of digital lead generation before scaling into ongoing engagements.

Logistics & Free Zone SMEs specifics

Do you understand B2B sales cycles in logistics?

Yes. Our team has experience with long-cycle B2B sales across logistics, technology, and professional services. We understand that logistics and free zone decisions involve multiple stakeholders, competitive evaluations, and procurement processes. Our strategies are designed around these realities, with content and nurture campaigns that maintain engagement throughout extended evaluation periods.

Can you help with both logistics marketing and free zone marketing?

Yes. While both are B2B, the strategies differ. Logistics companies need corridor-specific content and service-focused campaigns. Free zones need comparison content, cost calculators, and company formation guides. We customize our approach based on your specific business model and target audience.

Do you work with companies targeting international markets from UAE?

Yes. Many of our B2B clients are UAE-based companies serving international clients. We run campaigns targeting businesses in the GCC, India, Africa, and Europe that are looking for UAE-based logistics, warehousing, or free zone services. We understand the cross-border dynamics and can tailor campaigns for each source market.

What platforms do you use for B2B marketing?

We work across LinkedIn Campaign Manager, Google Ads, email marketing platforms (HubSpot, Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign), CRM systems, and analytics tools including GA4 and custom dashboards. For B2B specifically, LinkedIn is typically the primary paid channel, supplemented by Google search campaigns for high-intent service queries.

How do you measure B2B marketing success?

We track qualified leads generated, cost per lead, lead-to-opportunity conversion rate, pipeline value created, website conversion rates, organic search rankings, and content engagement metrics. Every engagement starts with baseline measurement so we can demonstrate clear before-and-after impact on your sales pipeline.

Do you help with trade show and exhibition marketing?

Yes. Many logistics companies rely on trade shows for lead generation. We help maximize ROI from events through pre-show campaigns, meeting scheduling, post-show follow-up sequences, and lead nurturing. We also build digital lead generation systems that complement your trade show presence, ensuring a consistent pipeline between events.
