At Shobi Solutions, we want to solve the biggest problem in indexing Google Search: everyone is guessing. Publishers need to know what strategies to build, how to monetize them, and where and when to price them. Advertisers and brands need to identify their target users and determine where to allocate resources in order to reach them most effectively. Investors need to know which niches and genres are growing the quickest, and where users are really spending their time (and money). In business, we need data to make informed decisions. Spectre provides the most actionable Google Search insights in the industry. We aim to make this data available to as many people as possible. Spectre Solutions work on; Content Writing, Copywriting, Email Marketing, SEO (on-off), Technical writing, ERP establishment; CMS, and SMM maintenance.

What is the story behind starting this company?
Since I joined my university in mid-2016 I was open to experiences and learning from the best. Shobi was a result of all my experience and all the struggles I faced when I was a kid. I and developer Mr. Haider founded Shobi in 2017 while having a paratha roll (Bread & Chicken) in the back café of our university. We thought of creating our own service in the heart of Pakistan, the twin cities. Haider was fond of creating user experiences and interfaces and I was passionate about selling and developing business. We merged the talent and came up with an abomination. Shobi started to provide one-stop solutions to start-ups in the creator’s economy and started to help B2B & C2C businesses by giving them unique solutions.
Shobi Solutions was founded at the National University of Computer & Emerging Sciences as a basic freelancing website based in the Twin Cities in Islamabad. At that time Shobi Solutions was named Spectre Digi-Techs. At Spectre (Today Shobi), we used to create eBooks and sell them using Affiliate Marketing in; Germany, Spain, France, and Sweden. Not just this but we were also selling custom digital art made on canva or adobe. Our customers really fell for it. Our team had strong knowledge & expertise in digital marketing. We combined every individual with multiple talents and created a virtual world.
Due to Covid-19 in July, most of the institutes were looking for online agencies to help them with their exams, assignments & semester projects. We had this golden opportunity that we couldn’t miss and came up with our own marketing team and content writing team. Here we founded Shobi in 2022.
Later on, in 2020 we created our own web presence and stepped into the digital world by selling digital marketing services. Shobi in Pakistan is now a part of PASHA, NZ-TECH, PSEB, and ICCI.
What are your company’s business model–in house team or third party vendors/ outsourcing?
Before Shobi created its own in-house team, we had to partner with third-party business vendors and specialists with multiple talents. We at Shobi were facing VAT charges and third-party taxes which we had to avoid.
Hence, we created our own in-house team. Shobi Solutions is a Service based agency with clients working with their respected associates. This helps Shobi create a strong competitive edge over its competitors and create a strong pricing model. We are an effective & efficient team of 24 people who are contributing to the betterment of the society.
How does your company differentiate itself from the competition?
Our USP is our location and pricing strategy. Furthermore, we are the only company that is providing free of cost market plans and market analyses. We have our own training program also free of cost. Our pricing packages are really negotiable. We have a really strong customer support department 24/7 available.
What industries do you generally cater to? Are your customers repetitive? If yes, what ratio of clients has been repetitive to you?
We generally work within the web3 industry; we remove barriers for builders who are creating a future of the web. Web3 industry is the next big thing where investors and stakeholders are pouring money. We help create sustainable, effective & efficient business models.
Yes, our customers are repetitive. Our Repeat Customer Rate is 25%. Moreover, our repetitive customer gets multiple discounts from our team and has access to premium functions. Our main clients are based in the EU, UK, US, and Australia who are connecting with us regularly.

What is your customer satisfaction rate according to you? What steps do you take to cater to your customer’s needs and requirements?

Our online survey is really simple, we send them invites to join our retro then we have an online meetup with them where we ask questions and we fill the survey with their suggestions and opinions.
What kind of support system do you offer to your clients for catering to their queries and issues?
Our support system is managed by AI chatbots that answer 100% of queries and address them using AI features. With this new accelerated adoption majority of issues are addressed with it. Yet, if they are not addressed they are automatically registered to our calendar and our customer support associate reaches them easily.
What kind of payment structure do you follow to bill your clients? Is it Pay per Feature, Fixed Cost, Pay per Milestone (could be in phases, months, versions etc.)
At Shobi Solutions; most of our projects are budgeted on a fixed-cost basis. As this option is more suitable for businesses that want subscriptions on monthly basis. Though we do costing on a milestone basis and on basis of features.
Here at Shobi we prefer to have suitable packages for clients who are working on per monthly basis we give them scheduled price packages that are customizable according to their needs.
Do you take in projects which meet your basic budget requirement? If yes, what is the minimum requirement? If no, on what minimum budget you have worked for?
We don’t seem to focus much on budget, our goal is to help businesses 10X their income. No project or client is small or big but what matters is the idea that is resonating behind it. All our projects are valued for time, quality and money. We have to make sure that the clients’ money and time are both valued so they are multiplied by majority of requirements.
What is the price range (min and max) of the projects that you catered to in 2021?
We managed to clear projects that had been worth from $5,000 to $10,000. We cater to work with companies that are in the startup or MVP stages. Our main goal is to help business owners get custom packages tailored to their needs.
