Led organic search strategy and content revamp across all business lines. Launched the brand's first podcast series to expand reach through storytelling — a format that built trust where traditional advertising couldn't.

Dabir Digital is a marketing consultancy based in San Francisco, California, founded by Kane Dabir. We operate as a senior strategic partner embedded with brands. Not a vendor. Not an agency you brief and wait on.
We specialise in paid media strategy, creative direction, CRMand lifecycle marketing, SEO, Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO), Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO), content and social media strategy, brand positioning, and cross-functional program management.
We have worked across cultural exchange and education, premium fashion and retail, financial services, food and beverage, automotive performance, home services, and healthcare. We have built brands from scratch. We have scaled brands that already existed. We have stepped into organisations where the infrastructure was broken and have rebuilt it. The work is real. The results are documented.
We will let the work answer that. Kane Dabir has managed enterprise paid media programs across four channels simultaneously, executed international advertising campaigns across nine countries, built a digital marketing function from zero that grew a brand by 317%, led full brand stewardship for a premium menswear retailer producing 40+ video assets, and architected lifecycle programs that reduced CAC while improving retention for brands across education, fashion, insurance, and foodservice.
He has worked with teams at Universal Music Canada, Brillstein Entertainment Partners, OVO Sound, Sidler International, and Intrax. His press coverage spans national broadcast, music industry trades, fashion media, and digital culture publications on two continents.
He is not the loudest person in the Bay Area marketing community. He is one of the most experienced. If you are looking for measurable output from someone who has already done it at scale, he is available.
The more relevant question is: what does it cost not to? We have managed multi-million dollar paid media campaigns while consistently optimising for customer acquisition cost. The cost of not having someone who has done this is typically much higher than the cost of hiring someone who has. Pricing is discussed during onboarding. It will feel fair. We promise.
We are not permitted to manipulate. However, most partners begin to observe measurable movement within the first 30 to 60 days. Soon. Some require patience. We do not rush the process. The process respects no one's calendar. But it does deliver.
We do not eliminate departments. We enhance them. If you have a team, we work alongside them to fill gaps, provide strategic direction, and improve output. If you do not have a team, we become it. Either way, no one gets sent to the break room.
This is expected. We will build one together after alignment meetings to ensure every initiative maps to your business goals. You bring the vision. We bring the structure. A strategy will be created. It will be documented. You will approve it.
Yes. We currently manage social media accounts for multiple brands. What we post will be based on the strategy you approve. Nothing goes live without your sign-off. Your feed is safe with us.
If your business requires growth, we are permitted to assist. We have worked across cultural exchange and education, premium fashion and retail, financial services and insurance, food and beverage, automotive performance, home services, and healthcare. The strategies differ. The standard does not.
You will be involved at a high level in everything. Each strategy will need to be confirmed before execution begins. We do not act without approval. You set the direction. We handle the rest. Your involvement is valued, but your time is respected.
Not really. But let's play 1 on 1.
