Reviews.
I worked with Elizabeth on the awareness-raising campaign on consumer affairs #yourEUright - the biggest ever launched by the Justice and Consumers Dept of the Commission. Elizabeth was instrumental in securing a modern look and feel
of the campaign and in defending the creative vision throughout the process.

Mission
Our STORY.
We’re Alexandra and Elizabeth. Sisters on a mission to help
build UAE brands and businesses that thrive and endure.
During a special sibling trip to Kenya in early 2024, we got
talking about our careers and the nuances of our disciplines:
Strategic Communications versus Creative Advertising. We
realised we shared more than a crossover in our expertise
but a common insight:
In the UAE, effective, agile brand building for start-ups and
SMEs are essential for not only their growth but also their
survival, yet it is totally under-serviced by our industries.
We decided to partner up to create an offering that will
lead our clients to new heights of success and steer their
lasting legacy.
At Violet Rae, we’re a literal family, so we’re a close-knit team. And our
clients are an extension of that - people we work with, not for.
You might know exactly what you need. You might have no idea where to
start. It doesn’t matter because we’re here to help you figure it out. Along
the way, we’ll openly share our expertise, industry insights and experience
so that by the time we part ways, you’re empowered to make informed
decisions and achieve sustainable success on your own.
Whether you’re an entrepreneur looking to establish your presence or an
existing SME aiming to scale up, we’ll provide you with the support and
guidance you need. We're here to make it happen together.
It’s The Violet Rae Way.
