Our Story

The journey of Leaders in Digital.

Founded by Dawn Kubicek in 2016, Dawn built the first female-founded SEO consultancy in the Middle East, establishing a reputation for data-driven, performance-led growth.

Now as an AI-first strategic consultancy designing AI-Optimised Visibility Systems for revenue growth across global, multi-location, and franchise brands.
As Dawn worked across both Blue-chip B2B sectors, including finance and technology, and premium B2C sectors such as beauty, health, wellness, and e-commerce – Dawn has contributed to multi-million revenue acceleration, seven-figure annual growth, and cross-market expansion for ambitious organisations.

Rather than operating as a traditional execution agency, Leaders in Digital acts as a strategic intelligence and visibility partner – transforming how brands are discovered, cited, and recommended across AI platforms, search engines, and digital ecosystems.
As Dawn was a Google Women Techmakers Ambassador, TEDx Speaker, international keynote speaker, and university lecturer, she is recognised for shaping conversations around AI-driven discovery, entity-led authority, and the shift from fragmented marketing to structured visibility systems.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

What is SEO?

SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) is the process of making your business more visible to potential customers across the web and AI tools. At Leaders in Digital, we treat SEO as a 360 solution – not a quick fix based on rankings alone.

How do you measure SEO success?

We measure what actually matters – revenue impact, lead quality, and channel ROI. Our custom reporting tracks your Google rankings, AI citation presence, organic traffic, and conversion performance. No vanity dashboards.

Does SEO impact sales?

Absolutely. Our Beauty sector client saw a 528% increase in monthly revenue directly attributed to SEO and integrated channel work. Higher visibility means more qualified traffic, more leads, and more revenue.

Is it better to do my own SEO or hire an expert?

It is always better to work with an expert who has access to resources, data tools, and techniques guaranteed to enhance your brand presence. We have no cap on keywords regardless of your budget.

Find out where your brand stands – on Google and AI search.
