The Senegal Advantage: Where Local Insight Meets Scalable Digital Growth
Senegal’s internet adoption has accelerated through smartphones, affordable data, and trusted social platforms. The audience is hyperconnected, values community, and discovers brands through a mix of video, messaging, and search. French dominates formal business communication while Wolof anchors everyday conversation; Pulaar, Serer, and other languages deepen regional resonance. That reality rewards brands that adapt creative, offers, and calls to action to each micro-moment. It also rewards advertisers who understand seasonality around religious occasions and local events, from football peaks and back-to-school to Tabaski, Korité, Grand Magal, and Gamou.
Korhogo Agency turns those nuances into practical media and creative decisions. We plan for short attention spans with vertical video, use clear benefit-led copy for price-sensitive segments, adjust formats to bandwidth conditions, and use geo and language filters to remove waste. We map each prospect’s path—awareness, consideration, purchase, and repeat—to determine the highest-impact messages and placements at every stage.
What We Deliver: Full-Funnel Online Advertising for Senegal
Strategic Planning and Audience Design
- Market research and competitor mapping to define category demand, white space, and feasible share-of-voice.
- Customer personas grounded in local behaviors: payment preferences (mobile money), device usage, languages, media habits, and trust triggers.
- Channel mix modeling across social, search, video, and display based on cost-to-serve and expected revenue contribution.
- Goal architecture that links brand metrics to sales outcomes with clear pacing and guardrails.
Media Buying and Execution
- Meta Ads (Facebook, Instagram), TikTok Ads, YouTube, Google Search and Display for high-impact coverage across Senegal.
- Programmatic display and video to extend reach using brand-safe, vetted inventory and premium local publishers where impactful.
- Local and regional influencer activation, with brand-fit creators who speak in French, Wolof, or mixed-language formats.
- Remarketing and sequential messaging that move users from interest to action with frequency, recency, and content alignment.
Every channel is planned around business outcomes. We group campaigns by objective—reach, traffic, leads, sales—and optimize toward the best-performing signals. That means dynamic budgets, daily bid adjustments, and creative rotations that capitalize on momentum and protect against fatigue.
Creative Studio and Conversion Architecture
- Concept-to-delivery ad production: static, carousel, short-form video, and long-form content with local casting and suitable dialects.
- Landing pages and microsites engineered for speed, clarity, and mobile-first attention, including WhatsApp and call-based CTAs.
- Offer strategy and value ladders: lead magnets, trials, bundles, and payment plan messaging aligned to local purchase behaviors.
- A/B and multivariate testing for headlines, visuals, CTAs, and layouts to continuously raise conversion rates.
Data, Measurement, and Martech
- Tracking implementation via GA4, server-side tagging where viable, and platform pixels with robust event maps.
- Consent flows that account for local norms and align with Senegal’s data protection expectations and CDP guidance.
- Attribution that blends platform insights with business logic to weight assisted conversions and incremental impact.
- Automations: CRM integrations, WhatsApp Business orchestration, email/SMS drips, and nurture sequences to lift lifetime value.
How We Build Your Growth Engine
Discovery and Audit
We begin with a structured intake to capture your business model, unit economics, and current media posture. If you have running campaigns, we audit accounts for structure, budgets, bid strategy, audience logic, creative coverage, and tracking fidelity. We study the sales funnel from first impression to paid conversion, identifying friction points and quick wins.
Plan and Prototype
Next, we co-author a plan with clear hypotheses, test matrices, and a prioritized backlog. We outline platform roles (e.g., TikTok for discovery, Search for high intent, Instagram for social proof), funnel stages, audiences, and KPIs by step. We prototype a first wave of creatives and build landing assets that articulate your offer in culturally grounded language. This is where strategy comes to life—relevant, sequenced, and measurable.
Launch and Calibrate
We launch in controlled waves with calibrated budgets. Early days focus on signal quality—events firing, cost baselines, and message-market fit. We trim weak ad sets, re-weight bids, and iterate creatives against live feedback. You’ll receive tight feedback loops, including daily snapshots during ramp and weekly insight summaries.
Scale and Systemize
Once we confirm stable cost and conversion metrics, we scale intelligently: widening audiences, expanding geos, rotating creatives, and adding formats like YouTube in-feed or TikTok Spark Ads. We codify learnings into a playbook—naming conventions, negative keywords, best-performing hooks—so your program keeps compounding.
Channels and Tactics Designed for Senegal
- Search with intent layering: brand terms for efficiency; category and competitor terms for conquest; local-language variants to capture underserved queries.
- Social video for discovery: TikTok and Reels tailored to snappy storytelling, everyday vernacular, and high-energy soundtracks popular in Senegal.
- Messenger and WhatsApp CTAs: smooth handoff to chat for prospects who prefer conversation over forms, with agent scripts and automation options.
- Creator-led formats: testimonials, demos, and day-in-the-life stories that prove product utility across neighborhoods and regions.
- Display and programmatic retargeting: frequency-controlled sequences that reinforce value and mitigate ad fatigue.
- YouTube layers: skippable for reach, in-feed for intent, shorts for rapid recall during peak hours and sports moments.
Language, Culture, and Localization
We design messaging in French for clarity and trust, then adapt into Wolof for everyday intimacy and reach. For campaigns requiring precision in specific regions, we localize into Pulaar or Serer where that adds lift. Word choice matters: clear pricing, frictionless steps, and social proof are essential. We align visual culture—fashion, music, color palettes—to reflect Senegalese aesthetics without stereotype. We ensure offers respect religious calendars and family-centered routines. The result is communication that feels close, not foreign, and that lowers the distance between discovery and decision.
Industries We Help Grow
- E-commerce and retail: catalog ads, marketplace coordination, and last-mile messaging with mobile money angles.
- Financial services and fintech: trust messaging, KYC assistance flows, and onboarding funnels that convert views into verified accounts.
- Education and training: lead generation that blends social proof with scholarship and intake scheduling.
- Tourism and hospitality: video storytelling, map-based retargeting, and seasonal packages aligned to travel windows.
- Telecom and devices: prepaid/postpaid offers, bundle clarity, and trade-in incentives with simple steps.
- NGOs and impact programs: awareness-to-action funnels that drive participation, donations, and volunteer recruitment.
- Healthcare and beauty: credibility-led creative with compliance-sensitive copy and appointment booking funnels.
Measurement, Compliance, and Brand Safety
We implement robust tagging with GA4, platform pixels, server-side pathways when appropriate, and consent banners adapted to your tech stack. Our approach respects privacy expectations in Senegal and avoids dark patterns. We use anomaly detection and independent verification to reduce invalid traffic, protect brand safety, and safeguard ad spend. Reporting goes beyond dashboards: we deliver explainable insights tied to decisions—what we changed, why it mattered, and what we’re testing next.
For growth teams that value clarity, we offer measurement plans that distinguish efficiency from effectiveness: cost per add-to-cart versus cost per purchase, lead volume versus qualified pipeline, on-platform signals versus in-CRM revenue. We make analytics practical—enough detail to steer, not overwhelm.
Pricing Models and Budgeting
- Fixed-fee planning and setup for strategy, tracking, and creative foundations.
- Monthly management fees that scale with scope and channels, not vanity metrics.
- Flexible media models: CPM/CPC for reach and traffic, CPL/CPA where funnel clarity supports performance terms.
- Test-and-learn budgets with guardrails to protect ROI while exploring new formats or audiences.
We build scenarios for low, medium, and high investment levels, each with expected ranges for reach, traffic, and conversion outcomes. We set clear thresholds that trigger scale-up or reallocation decisions. Budgeting is not a guess; it is a living plan tied to validated signals.

- Local-first empathy: real voices, real context, real utility in every message.
- Speed with rigor: fast experiments, clean testing, reliable readouts.
- Transparency: clear scopes, documented changes, and open performance logs.

Creative That Converts
We approach creative like a product. Each asset has a job, a hypothesis, and a metric. Hooks pull attention within the first 2 seconds, benefit lines are concise and layered, and calls to action are unmistakable. We build concept families around proof (testimonials), utility (how-to), and emotion (aspiration, belonging). We cast local talent and adapt voiceovers to French or Wolof depending on audience. Our editors tailor aspect ratios, captions, and pacing to match platform and bandwidth realities. This is where creative meets performance—not pretty for the sake of pretty, but persuasive by design.
Technology That Makes Marketing Smarter
Our stack embraces the tools you already have and fills the gaps where needed. From tag managers and consent managers to lead routing and sales alerts, we integrate systems so media money translates into pipeline and revenue. We configure event maps that differentiate micro-conversions from revenue signals and link cross-channel paths. With reliable data, we can apply budget models that privilege what works and shut off what doesn’t, accelerating optimization cycles and protecting ROI.
Campaign Governance and Brand Integrity
We maintain clear approvals, change logs, and escalation paths. We enforce naming conventions for instant readability. We implement audience exclusions to prevent waste, frequency caps to avoid overexposure, and negative keyword lists to keep search focused. Your brand voice is codified into guidelines that inform every caption and visual. We also apply inventory filters, third-party verification where relevant, and ad-level checks to maintain suitability standards throughout.
