10 Jul BWD July Newsletter
Dear John,
I have to admit that for me one of the most satisfying parts of owning a business is how it empowers me to touch lives.
For the past four weeks we’ve had the privilege of having five students from different schools under our wing. The whole idea was to give them their first glimpse into the real working world. They got to witness what it takes for a digital communication agency to function and the people dynamics that are at play.
Oswald, Albert, Billy, Thabisile and Zuko – I sincerely hope BWD added value for your and that it will be imprinted in your hearts and minds for time to come. I invite you to meet them too…
Zuko Santi – Midrand Graduate Institute
Thabisile – Boston Media House
Albert Thamane – University Of Johannesburg
Billy Mashego – Tshwane University Of Technology
Oswald – University Of Johannesburg

I firmly believe that our legacy is the experience we share and the knowledge we pass on. For this reason, BWD will be doing this again in June 2016. Besides, it was so much fun! If you know of any youngsters who would like to make use of the 2016 opportunity, please point them in our direction and ask them to email us their portfolios on careers@bwd.co.za.
BWD has also been sharing business advice and knowledge about digital content marketing with clients, businesses and entrepreneurs on numerous platforms. As a result, I was featured in Financial Mail (From Dung to Design), did a radio interview with KayaFM(Afropolitan Man) and also featured on MarkLives which is the most authoritative voice on marketing and advertising in South Africa. Feel free to take a look and see if you can benefit from any of this too.
In addition, I will be presenting at the ‘Concept To Trade’ retailer’s conference on 1 August 2015. The conference was born from the understanding that being an entrepreneur in the retail space these days is not easy. It is therefore aimed at empowering start-ups with useful information to make it through these tough economic times. My topic will be ‘What does your website say about your brand’. And you’re invited. Click here to find out more.
