FAQ
GCC questions
How well does an offshore team in India overlap with the GCC?
Extremely well. India is only about 1.5 hours ahead of the UAE and Saudi Arabia, so the team works the same calendar day with 2.5 to 3.5 hours of daily overlap. That is enough for live standups, reviews and same-day turnarounds.
Can the team handle English and the GCC market?
Yes. The team works in fluent English and is briefed on your market and audience. For bilingual needs we can prioritise team members comfortable working alongside Arabic-language content and review.
How much does an offshore team cost a GCC company?
Staff start from $500 per month, running to about $2,600 for the most senior roles, all-in and billed in your preferred currency. That is a fraction of the cost of hiring the same roles locally, with no recruitment fee. See the pricing page.
Which roles can GCC companies hire?
Designers, content writers, social media managers, digital marketers, video editors and web developers, as individual specialists or a full managed team, scheduled to your working hours.
