Dubai · one working day

Tell us what you are building. Then argue with us.

One thread, one team, and a reply from a person rather than an auto-responder. The most useful first meeting is the one where you bring the thing that is not working and we disagree about why.

The message you were about to send.

This is roughly what a first enquiry looks like, and there is nothing wrong with it. It is also four sentences away from being worth a proper call — so here is what we would ask for, in the margin.

An example first message

Hi — we are a retail brand in Dubai and we need to grow.

We have been running ads for a while and it is not really working.

Our current agency says things are fine.

Could you send over your packages and pricing?

An illustration, not a real enquiry. No figures, no client and no result is claimed anywhere on this page.

If what you actually want is a price for a specific, defined piece of work, say that instead — we will skip the discovery conversation entirely and quote it.

What happens after you press send.

Written down so you can hold us to it. Four things, in order, with the longest gap between them being one working day.

  1. Now

    You

    The brief, however rough it is.

  2. Same day

    ebs Digital

    It reaches a person

    Not an auto-responder pretending to be one. The form goes to a named inbox that a human reads.

  3. 1 working day

    ebs Digital

    A reply with a question in it

    Either a time for a call, or the one thing we need to know before that call is worth having.

  4. 30 minutes

    ebs Digital

    The first call, and no deck

    We ask what the number is, what you are spending, and what has already been tried. That is the whole agenda.

  5. Within a week

    ebs Digital

    Either a scope or a no

    A written scope with a figure in it, or the reasons this is not a job for us and who it might be for.

There is nobody here on commission, which is the only reason the fourth one can genuinely be a no.

Tell us what you're building

Tell us roughly what you need. A person reads it and replies within one working day — usually with a question, not a proposal.

YouWho we will be replying to.
