Effective Marketing in Oman
Marketing is not to run ads or to sell a product and it is definitely not to invent something new.
Marketing is simply to make change and impact. If you’re not proud of the change you’re making, then you aren’t marketing right.
Effective marketing is providing solutions with the right work for the right people in the right way to make an impact and a powerful change.
Real marketing, is the marketing that adds value to people’s life and spreads by word of mouth. Especially in a market like Oman with only 3 million citizens as potential clients.
If you need to persuade someone to take action, you’re doing marketing. Even taking a selfie on your social media profile or trying to talk your way out of a speeding ticket, you’re marketing.
Marketing is much more advanced than advertising, In fact, marketing has nothing at all to do with money.
If someone says, “I don’t do marketing,” they most likely mean, “I don’t spend money on ads.” And those are very different things.
Our culture is driven by marketers. The links we click, the shows we watch are all marketing artifacts.
As soon as we take responsibility for the marketing we do and the marketing that’s done to us, we have a chance to change things to the better and add value to people’s lives.
Marketing in a small and young market like Oman is not easy if you don’t go lean and flexible. In such a small market, launching a new product without thoroughly studying the market needs is not a good idea.
In Oman many companies fail in marketing because they do not research the market’s needs, and do not follow a methodology, which would involve testing and iterating the market response.
Many Omani companies focus on maximizing profit and advertising to get direct profits without understanding the importance of marketing the brand name and story before spending heavily on advertising.

Social Media Marketing
Yes, you need Social Media Marketing.
It might be an obvious statement in a few years, but for now it is a period of transition, in which the old internet generation and new internet generation still discuss how were things before and how they are now. In fact, for renowned brands the Social Media marketing is growing with a little help of the struggles of the past.
The free access to promote the brands made those names reach every corner of the world, but also increased their efforts to renew their products/services constantly, considering that their competitors got the same benefits.
It isn’t only about the free accessibility, the reason to be on Social Media is that “everyone is there”, looking for something. You are able to target your audience, guide them to your website and boost your content among other tools available.
The Social Media channels aren’t only good for renowned brands, it can also be an effective tool for new companies, because of the interaction with the customers that can provide them with valuable information such as, what products they are buying, what are their hobbies, what kind of content they share etc. That allows the companies to customize their products and services to the trends, therefore gaining visibility in this new world.
Within the last 5 years people in Oman have been using Social Media for business matters as much as for their personal use.
Advertising Agencies had a sudden switch from their previous majority of press media jobs to Social Media due to the rapid growth of this market.
