Dubai-based Palestinian siblings Youssef, Osama and Lubna have been chalking their entrepreneurial journey through their family business since late 2022. Today, ViralDose is one of the most prominent social media marketing and content creator agencies regionally.
The company enjoys a strong social presence. Its founders, the three siblings, have diverse educational backgrounds and have promised to build a successful venture as they scale heights by honing more and more skills, reported Khaleej Times.
Siblings attribute success to UAE’s business-friendly policies
Youssef, 24, previously operated in the biotechnology field for a couple of years before being laid off. Osama, 21, has three years of experience as a content creator in the UAE. Their sister, Lubna, 19, is still studying for her college degree.
The youngest of them all highlighted that one of the main reasons behind them starting the business in the UAE is that the risk of starting a business in the country is in high as they didn’t have to invest huge amounts of money in the initial phase.
The siblings attribute their success to the Emirates’ business-friendly policies. They say the country provided them an easy entry point due to the relatively less cost of starting a business there, besides affordable trade licences and ample of opportunities.
ViralDose exploring expansion into other countries in the region
Over the past couple of years, ViralDose has helped 90 clients, supporting companies to go viral on social media organically, assisting entrepreneurs in building their personal brands, and generating more and more business through marketing.
Today, the company is exploring expansion into other countries in the region such as Oman and Saudi Arabia. The siblings found that having family members as colleagues made their journey smoother, although it required maintaining transparency and managing egos.
