Hi, I'm Sufyan.
I build the marketing engine
behind ambitious brands.

Digital Marketing Manager

A decade spent across web development and digital marketing, the past six years leading marketing for premier real estate developments in Dubai.

About Me

Marketer by instinct. Engineer by training. A specialist in Dubai real estate for six years.

I graduated with a BS (Hons) in Computer Science and began my career building websites and Android applications — including an internship at Arbisoft, contributing to a food-delivery application. That engineering foundation still shapes how I approach marketing: campaigns are systems to be engineered, not guesswork left to chance.

I relocated to Dubai in December 2019 and have spent the years since inside three real estate brokerages — MMS Real Estate, Top Premium Real Estate and Black Lion Real Estate — leading the marketing function end to end: strategy, website, SEO, paid media, social, CRM and reporting directly to senior leadership.

Alongside full-time roles, I have freelanced across healthcare, beauty, education, immigration and e-commerce, and spent several years as a Level 2 Seller on Fiverr, delivering e-commerce marketing to several hundred clients. I now work hands-on with AI-assisted marketing tools across content, research and reporting — and am looking to bring the same discipline to clinics, hospitals and premium service brands beyond real estate.

What I Do

A complete marketing function, from strategy to a shipped platform

Digital marketing divides neatly into a handful of disciplines that genuinely move revenue. I lead all of them personally, so nothing is lost in the handoff between the person who builds the platform and the person who runs the campaign.

01

SEO & Organic Growth

Technical SEO, keyword strategy, on-page optimisation and Google Business Profile management, engineered to win search traffic that compounds over time.

SEMrush · Ahrefs · Yoast SEO
Google Search Console · Keyword Planner
02

Paid Advertising & Lead Generation

Performance campaigns across search and social, with budget allocation and remarketing structured to lower cost-per-lead across the life of a campaign.

Google Ads · Meta Business Manager
TikTok Ads · Snapchat Ads · LinkedIn Ads
03

Social Media Marketing

Content calendars, community management and paid social that build genuine engagement, not merely impressions.

Hootsuite · Meta Business Manager
Canva · Filmora
04

Website & Store Development

Responsive websites, landing pages and Shopify storefronts engineered to convert — built and maintained without an agency in between.

WordPress + Elementor · Shopify
Wix · Bootstrap · GitHub
05

Content, Email & Funnels

Brochures, articles, newsletters and press releases, wired into email sequences and sales funnels that nurture enquiries automatically.

Mailchimp · ClickFunnels
Instapages
06

CRM, Analytics & Reporting

CRM implementation and lead nurturing, tied to clear reporting on the metrics leadership actually values — traffic, cost per lead and return on investment.
