Leadee is a Dubai-based growth agency that runs B2B lead generation across the GCC. We split campaigns by country so each one sends on the right working days and time zone. Every reply is qualified on budget, authority, need and timeline, and every meeting reaches your team with a BANT handover note.

GCC outbound questions
Can one campaign cover the whole GCC?
We split campaigns by country so each one sends on the right working days and time zone.
Which GCC market should we start with?
Usually the one where you already have clients or a partner. The growth audit compares the markets for your offer.
Do you write GCC campaigns in Arabic?
Campaigns run in English and Arabic. Our team works in English, Arabic and Hindi/Urdu, and you approve every message before it is sent.
Does Leadee have an office in every GCC country?
No. Leadee is based in Dubai and works remotely into Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman.
We are based outside the GCC. Can you still help?
Yes. Companies abroad use us to book their first meetings with GCC buyers before they open an office.
