Questions, answered
What brands usually ask before working with us. If yours is not here, email hello@district966.com.
What is DISTRICT 966?
DISTRICT 966 is a growth agency from Saudi Arabia. Strategy, creative, performance marketing, digital, content and market entry are run by one accountable team, measured against one number: your growth.
What does a growth agency do?
A growth agency is responsible for increasing a business's customers and revenue, not just producing marketing. It combines strategy, creative, paid media, SEO, websites and content in one plan, and judges success by business numbers.
Where is DISTRICT 966 based?
DISTRICT 966 is based in Saudi Arabia and works with brands across the Kingdom and the wider GCC.
Do you work in Arabic and English?
Yes. All strategy, copy, design and content is produced natively in both Arabic and English, not translated after the fact.
Which services do you offer?
Six: strategy, creative and branding, performance marketing and SEO, websites and apps, content and social media, and market entry for Saudi and international brands.
How much does it cost to work with DISTRICT 966?
It depends on scope and markets. After a short diagnosis we propose a plan with a clear budget for our fees and for media, so you know the full cost before anything starts.
How long does it take to see results?
Paid media usually shows early signals within the first weeks, while SEO and brand work build over months. Every engagement starts with a plan whose timeline is set by what needs to be accomplished, with targets we review at agreed points.
What is your process?
Four steps: diagnose the real constraint on growth, plan with targets, budgets and owners on a timeline set by the goals, build the creative, channels and tools, then scale what works and cut what does not, every week.
Which marketing platforms work best in Saudi Arabia?
It depends on your audience. Snapchat and TikTok are strong for reaching Saudi consumers, Instagram suits fashion and lifestyle, Google captures high-intent search and LinkedIn reaches B2B decision-makers.
Do you help international brands enter the Saudi market?
Yes. We cover research, positioning, Arabic localisation, channel planning and launch, and connect brands with local partners in the Kingdom.
Do you help Saudi brands expand abroad?
Yes. We usually start with the GCC, adapt the brand and offer for the first market, and launch with partners on the ground.
Which sectors do you work with?
All sectors. We work with businesses in every industry, with particular experience in food and beverage, e-commerce and B2B, such as specialty coffee, fashion retail and logistics platforms.
Do you work with small businesses or only large companies?
Both. We work with small and medium enterprises (SMEs) as well as major companies, and size the plan and budget to fit the business.
Why one agency instead of several specialists?
Because hand-offs between agencies lose time, budget and accountability. One team owns the plan and the result, so nothing falls between the strategy, the creative and the media.
