Digital & social marketing

Importers check your page before they reply. Make it convince them

We make videos, designs and regular posts for your factory, run a LinkedIn page for buyers, social ads, and B2B platforms like Alibaba where they suit your sector. So importers see an active, consistent factory.

A sleeping page puts importers off

The last post is a year old

Importers visit your page to check you're active. If it's empty, they have doubts.

Phone photos and random designs

Your product is good, but on the page it doesn't look like an exporting factory.

Talking to local shoppers

Arabic posts about offers and discounts, when importers want to see the production line, quality and shipping.

How we work each month

The first content plan is ready in about two weeks, then it's steady monthly work.

  1. 01

    Understand your factory and buyer

    We look at your products and export market, and decide who we're talking to and in which language.

  2. 02

    Plan the month

    A calendar of every post and video and when it goes out, which you approve before anything is published.

  3. 03

    Design and make the videos

    Posts, carousels and stories, plus short videos about the product, the production line and the packaging.

  4. 04

    Publish and run LinkedIn

    Scheduling across all your pages, a LinkedIn company page with posts for buyers, and your profile on B2B platforms if they suit your sector.

  5. 05

    Advertise and measure

    Social ads aimed at buyers in your market, and an end-of-month report on what worked and what didn't.

Our work

Social designs we made around the products of 6 Egyptian factories

Instagram posts, carousels, LinkedIn posts, ads and stories, each in the factory's own identity: FOODICO, El Ghannam, Ceramica Platino, Al-Fursan, Triangle Wood and Upload For Export.

What you get every month

Regular content that looks like an exporting factory.

  • Designs and carousels

    Designs in your factory's identity for Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn.

  • Short videos

    Reels and videos about the product, the production line and the packaging.

  • Scheduling and publishing

    Every post goes out on time, without you having to remember.

  • A LinkedIn company page

    A properly set-up page with posts in English or the market's language, aimed at buyers.

  • Social ads

    Ads on LinkedIn or Facebook and Instagram, aimed at buyers in your chosen market.

  • B2B platforms

    Your factory's profile on Alibaba or another platform that fits your sector, with products and proper descriptions.

How long it takes

Ongoing, month by month

The first content plan is ready in about two weeks. B2B platforms can take longer, depending on the platform's own review.

What we need from you

  • Your factory's logo and identity
  • Photos and videos of the factory and products
  • Your catalog and specs
  • Access to your current pages
  • Someone to approve the monthly plan

Our promise

Your pages will stay active and consistent every month, on a plan you approve before anything goes out. At the end of each month you'll see in numbers how many posts went out, how many people they reached, and how many messages came from buyers. We don't count likes; we count who asked about your product.

Common questions

Do importers even look at social media?

Not to buy, but to check you out. Before replying to your email or asking for a sample, they open your website and your pages. A consistent page reassures them you're an active factory.

Why LinkedIn?

Because purchasing managers are on it, and they see your factory and posts in English or their own language. Facebook and Instagram matter too, but mostly for your overall image.

Is Alibaba right for my factory?

It depends on the sector. In some it brings inquiries; in others buyers prefer trade shows or platforms specialised in their field. We'll give you an honest opinion before you pay for any platform.

Who writes the content?

We do, in Arabic, English and the market's language if needed. You see and approve everything before it goes out.

How is this different from SEO & Google Ads?

SEO and ads make importers find you when they search Google for your product. Social media shows them an active factory when they open your page, and puts you in front of buyers on LinkedIn.

How much does it cost?

It's billed monthly, depending on the number of designs, videos and platforms. Message us on WhatsApp and we'll give you an exact price.
