[ Testimonials ]

Hear it from our partners

“When we were looking for a digital partner, we were looking for someone to come on board and help us with our digital advertising and to bring on more qualified leads at a better price in terms of media spend. So when we first met UBRIK, we knew right away that they were the right partners for us and it is because of their team. All of their team went above and beyond to present several ideas over and above the brief that we had given them. And every single promise that they have made to us, they have come through on so far.”

Rania Itani
University of Manchester

“It’s the transparency and clarity of work that we have had with Ubrik, which we have not seen with other agencies. We have worked with quite a few alternatives, including some big names and alot of money, but none have been as successful as Ubrik.”

Osaid Azeem
Candian University

“We worked with multiple marketing agencies and most of the time it was work on quantity of the leads and little emphasis was given to the quality of the leads. Once we started working with Ubrik, we saw the quality of the leads jump way higher even though the quantity came down leading to much better results in terms of conversion.”

Frequently asked

What are the differences in targeting undergraduate vs postgraduate prospects?

Targeting undergrads and postgrads is quite different. Undergraduates are a larger group and look for campus life information on big platforms, with ads peaking after results. Postgraduates prefer professional insights through webinars and need ads year-round due to varied application cycles. Ad placements and timing vary accordingly.

How does the channel mix change across countries in the GCC in the higher education space?

The channel mix in the GCC varies by country. The UAE and Saudi Arabia favour digital channels like social media and search ads due to high internet use. Oman and Bahrain still use traditional media like print and radio alongside digital efforts. Adapting to each country's digital penetration, cultural preferences, and regulations is important.

What makes Ubrik’s PPC services different from other agencies?

Ubrik stands out by starting with a tailored growth strategy, doing in-depth competitive audits, and doing extensive keyword research. We offer live performance dashboards, rigorous A/B testing, and create conversion-focused landing pages and creative assets. Our dedicated team of five experts provides personalized service and strategic support, going beyond expectations to scale enrollments.

How does Ubrik ensure that PPC campaigns align with my institution's brand messaging?

We ensure alignment by collaborating closely with your team to understand your brand, values, and messaging. Our creative team develops ad copy and visuals that reflect your unique identity, and regular strategic meetings ensure continuous feedback and alignment. This approach guarantees that our PPC campaigns reinforce your brand and communicate your strengths to prospective students.

What is Ubrik's pricing model for PPC services?

Ubrik follows a flat retainer fee model, providing transparency and flexibility. Unlike other agencies, our fees are not linked to your budget spend, allowing you to scale your ads anytime without hidden costs. This transparent pricing helps you budget for marketing spend. We offer multiple payment options and discounts, including end-of-month, beginning-of-month, and quarterly payments, to fit your financial planning needs.
