In MENA, every neighborhood has its own algorithm and emotional language. “𝐖𝐞 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬.” 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡: What you 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 need is trust. Awareness without relevance is noise, especially in markets drowning in content. “𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐤𝐞𝐲 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐮𝐚𝐥.” 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡: Most global KVs don’t survive the Gulf sun. A culturally flat creative dies before it lands. Local isn't just a size, it's a temperature. “𝐁𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐰𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭.” 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡: You’re not short on money, you’re short on clarity. Smart trade offs beat shallow spends but only if strategy leads, not follows. “𝐖𝐞’𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐬.” 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡: Until the first bold idea shows up. Bold isn’t loud. Bold is 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵. And difference demands courage, not just approvals. 💡 The best briefs leave space for truth, tension, and talent. But most don’t. So it’s on us, the strategists, media planners, brand whisperers to read between the buzzwords and speak in 𝘩𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯. What’s a line from a brief that made you raise your eyebrow?
