We are not a digital agency. Nope.

Which instantly makes us not mediocre. Just kidding. Or am I?
Let’s get to the point.

We are digital and social media marketing consultants. With the mentality of a media company.

You too should have a media company mentality. Maybe I’ll write a blog about that someday.

Our vision is to see ourselves ranking among the top consultants in the world.

We think we are competing with the KPMGs, Price Waters, and Deloittes of the world.

We don’t work to put out advertising or digital agencies. They do that themselves.

Kidding again. Maybe.

Now, because we are not mediocre, there is no place for mediocre people within the organization. Including interns and people who want to work with us.

So when someone comes to me, I get to understand quickly who is looking for a job and who is looking for knowledge.

We like the latter.

Because finding someone who values long-term knowledge over short-term financial gain is rare.

...
...
Just like the people in our organization. So that’s what we look for — hunger for knowledge.

So we don’t pay. For the first 3 months. To see the real intentions of the person.

Before building a company, we are trying to build a culture.

From the beginning, we make it very clear to the new person that you need to be conversant with the fundamentals of the relevant subject to even begin to work with us.

We know that the current curriculum around the world doesn’t teach practical knowledge: it’s all theory-oriented.

Also, the pace at which the world is moving is way too fast for any institute to keep up with.

So, in the initial weeks, we try to understand the newbie’s speed.

You work here for free. But gain priceless knowledge. That you will get nowhere else.

All information is out there. It can be found online in one form or another. But everyone is lazy.
