Case Studies
Kids DXB, Dubai, United Arab Emirates (2018-2020)
Kids DXB started their journey of children’s sports coaching in 2016 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
This was a complete start up business so the team in place knew of the challenge ahead.
In year 1 business was generated mainly through face to face marketing strategies via schools and attending relevant events in the region. This proved to be a good strategy as revenue started to flow through the business immediately and the Kids DXB brand started to gain recognition.
During year 2 the business saw very similar revenues and it seemed like the business had plateaued therefore a different strategy was needed.
Kids DXB appointed Aaron Williams (now co-founder of TDS Group) to handle all digital marketing within the company which proved to be the best business decision ever made. The company was able to attract massive attention online which brought a different dynamic to the business.
Year 3 saw the business increase their revenue 10X which included a record breaking month of generating 1.1 Million AED.
The appointment of Aaron allowed the business to grow and gain automatic traction from customers throughout the region.
City Golf Academy, Manchester, United Kingdom (2020-2021)
“I launched the company less than one month ago with no client base or database. Total Digital Solutions Group have designed and built my website, implemented a sales system for my professionals and automated communication through emails.
My number one concern was return on investment, I have been willing to invest in paid advertising through Facebook and Google but I wanted to make sure my money was well spent, which so far has proven to be successful beyond my imagination.”
“As you can see they spent a total of £180.82 on advertising which resulted in revenue of £2,391.49 so far. That is over 13X return on investment for me from just 2 weeks worth of advertising and I still have many more leads to follow up with!
I highly recommend the services of Aaron and Marcus to help grow your business.”
Joseph Mannion, Owner, City Golf Academy
Golf DXB, Dubai, United Arab Emirates (2016-2020)
“I used to services of Marcus and Aaron to help me grow my golf academy. Before working with them I had just 80 clients which resulted in a yearly revenue figure of around 360,000AED (£72,000).
During the three years of working with Marcus and Aaron we introduced automated sales processes, paid advertising across Facebook and Google to introduce hundreds of new leads, upgraded website and SEO along with sales training for the staff.
This allowed me to grow the academy to a yearly revenue of 1,800,000AED (£360,000) which was a 5x growth across just 3 years.”
