Case Study Goethe-Institut Gulf Region

The Objective

To drive awareness, engagement, and online registrations for German language courses across the Gulf region—with a focus on performance-based campaigns that convert interest into action. Omnireach Digital was tasked with planning and executing a three-phase, multilingual digital marketing strategy from January to June 2025 as part of an ongoing collaboration with the Goethe-Institut Gulf Region.

Our Strategy

  • UAE as the primary conversion market
  • Oman as a secondary awareness and traffic market
  • A media mix across Meta, YouTube, and TikTok
  • Testing static vs. animated vs. AI-generated video content
  • Language variation (English vs. Arabic)
  • Targeting diverse age and gender demographics
  • Each campaign phase was designed to scale learnings from the previous campaigns.
