Jack of All Trades | Master of Media
In 2013, I identified a gap and built the fastest growing digital media and business development agency in Malawi. With a network of close to 50 young people across Malawi that I manage to date, we offer digital branding, marketing and communications services and business development solutions to brands in various sectors ranging from tourism, finance, insurance, health all the way to advocacy and development. Our value proposition is that we are young, creative, and often ahead of social and digital media trends. We adapt the model of storytelling(/blogging), and use that to develop and brand businesses, helping them better tell their stories. We understand the difference between personal brands and businesses, and curate stories to suit the needs and targets of different brands in various industries.
