Keeping customers updated with changes in business hours, delivery schedules and product updates can play a massive role during this time.

November is here, and the new year is right around the corner. The UAE is now in full swing as online and offline shopping trends spike once more. Small, medium and large businesses alike are ramping up their marketing spends as consumers gear up for two months filled with long weekends and vacations.
