Launching a product or brand is more than an announcement—it’s a strategic opportunity to craft a narrative, generate excitement, and shape consumer perception. A well-executed launch combines creativity, psychology, and data-driven insights to make the brand memorable and desirable from day one.
At AARK Marketing, we help brands design launches that resonate emotionally, communicate value, and create measurable impact across digital, retail, experiential, and PR touchpoints.
1. Brand Identity & Launch Design
A product or brand launch begins with a clear, compelling identity. Logos, packaging, color schemes, typography, and visual design ensure the brand is recognizable and positions the product effectively in the market. Marketing agencies craft identities that align with the product’s promise and audience expectations.
Case in point: For Zordaar, the UAE’s first Indian restaurant offering over 75 dishes from 16 states and districts, AARK Marketing developed a complete brand identity from scratch. We created a 200-page brand catalog, refining the logo, color palette, and menu design to reflect Indian heritage while appealing to Dubai’s cosmopolitan audience. Every element, from signage to tableware, reinforced a cohesive, premium, and culturally rooted brand image.
2. Storytelling & Launch Campaigns
Storytelling transforms a launch into an immersive, emotional experience. Through content marketing—blogs, social media, videos, and PR—brands can communicate the product’s origin, craftsmanship, and values. Launch campaigns become narratives that capture attention and foster loyalty.
Example: Kashkan Restaurant Launch
When celebrity chef Ranveer Brar opened Kashkan in Dubai, AARK Marketing was tasked with creating significant buzz in a competitive dining landscape. The campaign aimed to position Kashkan as a must-visit culinary destination, attract a diverse clientele, and maintain ongoing visibility.
Execution Highlights:
PR Strategy: Extensive media outreach in Dubai and India, securing over 1 million dirhams worth of coverage across print, radio, TV, and podcasts.
Influencer Partnerships: Collaborated with 200+ influencers, amplifying Kashkan’s story to diverse audiences through authentic social content.
Event Activation: Hosted a grand opening event that offered an immersive culinary experience, generating organic buzz and social sharing.
Results Achieved:
2.4 million views across social media in the first three months
20,000 new followers gained on social platforms
Strong local and regional brand positioning, establishing Kashkan as a go-to dining destination
This launch demonstrates how combining PR, influencer marketing, and experiential activations creates both immediate impact and long-term brand equity.
3. Digital & Performance Marketing
Visibility and relevance are key to successful launches. Paid campaigns, social media promotions, Google Ads, and performance-focused strategies ensure the right audience sees the launch at the right time. Real-time optimization maximizes reach and nudges consumers toward engagement and conversion.
Soft Launch – Dubai Summer Campaign
Ahead of peak season, we executed a digital-first soft launch for Lavang, building awareness through performance marketing and social campaigns before the high-profile PR & influencer media meet.
PR & Influencer Activation
Over 20 influencers experienced Lavang firsthand, generating 30+ media features and 100+ stories/reels, reaching 1M+ views across Instagram and TikTok.
Impact
The integrated approach drove strong engagement, 4M+ social views, and measurable footfall growth, reinforcing Lavang’s positioning as a premier fine dining destination in Dubai.
4. Experiential Marketing & Engagement
Consumers remember experiences more than products. Launch events, tastings, workshops, and interactive activations allow audiences to immerse themselves in the brand’s story. Experiential marketing builds trust, loyalty, and positive associations that last well beyond the launch day.
Launch Campaign – Abu Dhabi:
Guests at the launch of Pincode, The Galleria Abu Dhabi experienced an immersive, multi-sensory journey that brought the brand to life. From the 20-day social media countdown and behind-the-scenes construction-to-opening reels, to influencer kits and teaser collaborations, every touchpoint built anticipation and excitement. The grand launch event welcomed over 120 influencers, media, and food bloggers, complemented by a PR campaign across top regional and national lifestyle platforms, reinforcing Pincode’s identity as a must-visit culinary destination in Abu Dhabi.
Results:
1.1M+ views across social platforms within the first 30 days
200% higher sales than projected in the opening month
Coverage across 50+ publications and digital portals
120+ influencer stories, videos, and reels in the launch week alone
