Discuss ServiceWhat Our Eid Campaigns Deliver
Real results for brands that invest in influencer marketing during the UAE's biggest shopping season.
Our campaigns consistently achieve engagement rates 3x higher than standard influencer posts, because we time content to peak shopping moments – the last ten days of Ramadan and the days leading to Eid.
We've helped clients see a 40% increase in store footfall during Eid compared to non-campaign periods, by combining influencer content with location tags and geo-targeted ads.
Brand recall jumps by 60% when influencers share personal Eid preparation stories featuring your product, creating an emotional connection that drives purchase intent.
In 2025, one of our F&B clients generated AED 2.5 million in direct sales from a single Eid campaign, with a 12x return on influencer spend.
A luxury watch brand saw their influencer content viewed 1.8 million times in one week, leading to a sell-out of their Eid collection.
For a home decor retailer, we orchestrated a campaign that resulted in 3,000+ user-generated content pieces using their branded hashtag.
How We Vet Influencers for Eid Campaigns
Not every influencer is right for your brand during this sensitive period. Our vetting process ensures quality and alignment.
We review each influencer's past content for cultural appropriateness, engagement authenticity, and audience demographics. We also check for any past controversies that could reflect poorly on your brand during a holy period.
Our team conducts a trial collaboration before full campaign commitment. This allows us to assess content quality, turnaround time, and audience response. Only influencers who pass this stage proceed to the campaign.
DIY vs. Agency-Managed Eid Campaigns
Managing influencer campaigns yourself?
You may save on agency fees, but you risk cultural missteps, delayed timelines, and low-performing influencers. Without a vetted network, you spend hours negotiating and still might not get the right fit.
With BrandStory, you get immediate access to our pre-vetted influencer database, strategic planning, and real-time optimisation. We handle contracts, briefs, and approvals so you can focus on your core business.
Our campaigns deliver an average of 40% higher engagement than DIY efforts, according to client feedback. Plus, our relationships with influencers mean better rates and priority placement during the busy Eid season.

UAE Advertising Regulations for Eid Campaigns
We ensure every campaign adheres to the National Media Council guidelines and respects cultural sensitivities.
Influencer content must clearly disclose paid partnerships using hashtags like #Ad or #Sponsored. We include these in every briefing and review all posts before publishing.
During Ramadan and Eid, content must avoid anything that contradicts Islamic values – such as inappropriate attire, music, or promotion of alcohol. Our team is trained to flag these issues.
How Influencer Marketing Complements Your Eid Strategy
Influencer campaigns work best when aligned with your broader marketing mix.
We coordinate with your email marketing, social ads, and in-store promotions to create a unified customer journey. For example, influencer content can drive traffic to a dedicated landing page with an Eid discount code.
Our team shares creative assets from influencers with your paid media team for retargeting campaigns. This synergy amplifies reach and improves conversion rates by up to 30%. Explore Our Full Service Suite.
