Stop buying bronze, silver, gold social media plans

Stop buying bronze, silver, gold social media plans

Ever wondered why most agencies list 3 social media packages on their site and call it a day?

Bronze, Silver, Gold, and somehow you’re expected to fit into one of those, even if your business is nothing like the others?

At Social Trends ME, a UAE-based social media agency, we’ve never done that. And we never will.

Because when it comes to social media packages in Dubai, one-size-fits-all is a myth.

The truth about social media packages

Let’s keep it real, a bakery, a construction company, and a fashion brand cannot be marketed using the same checklist.

They have:

  • Different customers
  • Different goals
  • Different budgets
  • And completely different social media needs

Yet, most agencies offer the same fixed options to all three.

Here’s what usually happens:

  • You pick a “mid-tier” package
  • You realize it includes things you don’t need
  • But also doesn’t include things you really do
  • You feel stuck, paying for a list of services that don’t fully serve your brand

That’s exactly the problem with standardized social media packages, they serve the agency more than they serve you.

Why we customize every project at social trends me

At Social Trends ME, we work with everyone from small startups to established enterprises across the UAE. And what we’ve seen is this, every brand is on its own journey.

So, instead of forcing you into a pre-made box, we do things differently:

1. We listen first

We don’t sell you a service list.
 We ask:

  • What stage is your business at?
  • What do you actually need from social media?
  • What are your challenges right now?

That initial conversation helps us figure out if you need leads, awareness, rebranding, or community building, and what kind of content, budget, and platforms will support that.

2. We build a custom strategy

Based on your answers, we build a tailored roadmap.
 It includes:

  • Platform choices (Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, Facebook, or just one?)
  • Content formats (Reels, static, stories, carousels, behind-the-scenes, etc.)
  • Paid ads vs organic growth
  • Engagement plans
  • Content volume and themes
  • Analytics and reporting
3. We stay flexible

Social media is constantly changing.
 Instagram’s algorithm might change next month.
 Suddenly, short-form videos might outperform carousels.
 A new platform might emerge.

So instead of locking you into a “gold package,” we adjust the plan monthly based on what’s actually working for your brand.

Real-life example

Social media company in DubaiOne of our clients is a massive factory that’s been running successfully offline for years.

They didn’t need social media for leads.
They didn’t need heavy ad budgets.
They weren’t chasing conversions.

What they needed was a polished digital presence to boost credibility and act as a portfolio for their international buyers.

So instead of pitching them a three-posts-a-week, two-reels-a-month standard package,  we created a visual-first strategy focused on brand storytelling, team culture, and project showcases.

That’s what worked for them.
Not a generic plan that also includes things like “audience engagement” or “giveaway strategy,” which would’ve added zero value in their case.

Why standard packages fail from a business point of view

Let’s be honest, it’s easier for agencies to have set packages. It helps them predict workload and resources.

But it rarely works for the client. Here’s why:

1. Different industries have different rules

The content that works for a real estate brand isn’t the same as what works for a dental clinic. A local food truck will need hyper-local engagement, while a B2B tech firm might care about thought leadership.

2. Businesses are at different stages

A brand new café needs awareness.
A growing online boutique wants conversions.
A niche fitness coach wants to build community.

If the strategy doesn’t match the business stage, the results will always fall short.

3. Audiences behave differently

A Gen Z fashion audience scrolls fast and loves Reels.
A corporate decision-maker on LinkedIn wants thought pieces and credibility.

So if we treat all audiences the same, we miss the mark.

4. Not every platform matters equally

You don’t need to be everywhere.
Maybe your audience lives only on Instagram. Maybe it’s YouTube and TikTok.

Standard packages usually include platform management you might never need.

What a custom package helps you achieve

Now let’s flip the conversation.
What do you gain when you go custom?

1. You only pay for what you need

No fluff. No wasted resources. No line items you don’t understand.

We keep it lean, relevant, and practical for your goals and budget.

2. Better results, faster

A custom approach means we’re laser-focused. You get quicker traction because every piece of content, ad, or campaign is aligned with what you actually need.

3. Flexibility to grow

When your business grows, your goals evolve — and we evolve with you. We don’t trap you in rigid plans. We build in room to pivot, scale, or pause based on your reality.

4. Deeper brand understanding

Working closely on a custom package means we understand your brand inside out. That means better content, stronger messaging, and a consistent voice across every touchpoint.
