About

A marketer who started as a designer and went on to build companies.

I am Eng. Abdallah Saleh Hussein. Fourteen years across design, campaign management and building marketing and sales teams — combining strategic thinking with hands-on execution to deliver growth that can be measured.

The story in short

I believe success comes from smart planning and steady work, with a commitment to quality and team spirit.

I started in 2012 studying graphic design, then worked as a designer and art director in technology and marketing companies, and designed for MBC Group programmes and the Shahid app. That start taught me to see a brand through the customer's eyes before the marketer's.

In 2015 I joined Rosomat Digital Solutions as head of marketing and art director, then founded the company and became its CEO in 2016. There I moved from producing designs to leading strategy: I built marketing, sales, call-centre and WhatsApp customer-service teams, and ran advertising campaigns and projects for clients across sectors.

Today I lead marketing and operations at Aqar.com and work as a marketing consultant with companies in Saudi Arabia and Oman, moving between Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Oman, Egypt and Jordan as projects require.
