01 · The Client

A respected contractor, invisible online

Sahara Construction Contracting Company is a Jeddah-headquartered firm delivering integrated civil and electromechanical solutions across the Kingdom, built on a reputation for quality, safety and engineering excellence aligned with Vision 2030.

The Firm

Civil & electromechanical contracting — infrastructure and construction delivered to the highest standards.

The Market

Kingdom-wide B2B — Jeddah, Riyadh & the Eastern Province, serving developers and enterprises.

The Buyers

Property developers, consultants, facility managers and main contractors awarding work.

The Context

A Vision 2030 construction boom — high opportunity, but a crowded, competitive field.

The Challenge

Translate an offline reputation into online demand.

Sahara needed a credible digital presence matching the quality of its work, a way to capture high-intent buyers actively searching for contractors, and a system to generate and qualify project leads — while filtering out the job-seekers and low-value clicks that plague construction advertising.

02 · Objectives

What we set out to achieve

Every channel was optimised for pipeline and contracts won — not vanity clicks.

01

Build digital authority that reflects Sahara's real-world quality.

02

Capture high-intent demand from decision-makers actively searching for contractors.

03

Generate qualified project leads — real opportunities, not job applications.

04

Feed the sales team a steady, trackable pipeline of meetings and tenders.

05

Prove ROI in the only terms that matter in B2B: pipeline and contracts won.

03 · The Strategy

Three cores, one engine

Social built the credibility, Meta created the demand, and Google captured it at the moment of intent — each channel covering another's blind spot.

Social Media Management

Turning Sahara's project portfolio into a living showcase of authority across LinkedIn, Instagram & Facebook — the credibility layer every buyer checks before reaching out.

Meta Ads

Creating demand at scale — putting completed-project stories in front of developers and enterprises, then retargeting engagers into consultation leads.

Google Ads

Capturing demand at the moment of intent — appearing exactly when a buyer searches for a contractor, and filtering out everyone who isn't one.

04 · Execution & Channel Performance

Six months of integrated, full-funnel execution

Google captured existing demand, Meta created new demand, and social made both credible.

07 · Why It Worked

A full-funnel engine, not single-channel spend

01

Full-Funnel, Not Single-Channel

Google captured existing demand, Meta created new demand, and social made both credible — covering each other's blind spots.

02

B2B Intent Filtering

Disciplined negative keywords and lead qualification kept spend on real projects, not job-seekers and students.

03

Proof-Led Content

Completed-project showcases turned Sahara's portfolio into its strongest sales asset.

04

The Right Success Metric

Optimised for cost per qualified opportunity and contracts won — because one deal outweighs a thousand cheap clicks.

05

Compounding Authority

As organic presence matured, paid conversion costs fell — credibility built once kept paying back across every channel.

In Summary

An offline reputation, now a measurable pipeline.

In six months, a SAR 150,000 investment across social media, Meta and Google generated 580 project inquiries, 146 qualified opportunities and 11 won contracts — influencing a SAR 41M pipeline and building the digital authority Sahara's work always deserved.
