Build A Home Anywhere

Nobody could have been happier when my sister knew she would be leaving home and traveling abroad to further her studies. The wait was over and we were all happy that her wish finally came to pass. The idea to settle in Paris after her Masters Programme was also welcomed. A few days after, she told me how she had been bothered about finding a job in a place far away from her homeland. She ranted about the challenges people in the diaspora face, which include no social gatherings, language barriers and difficulties in finding counselling groups and classes when the need arises. I knew it would come to this and I was glad I was able to help just at the time she was giving the whole thing a second thought. I told her about TRWC. I explained to her that TRWC is an agency whose services include support and assistance for people who have migrated or dispersed from their original homeland or community. These services could include cultural events, language classes, social gatherings, counselling, job placement assistance, and legal aid tailored to the needs of diaspora communities. There was no need to panic after telling her these. She was rest assured she was in safe hands and was able to to place her in a befitting diaspora community. There was no loneliness and no reason to return home due to frustration. Are you also doubting the stability of comfort and basic provisions at your destination? Do you desire to be home while you are obviously far from home? READ ALSO: Wear A Brand New Look We will be glad to help you. TRWC is here to give you such a safe and calm voyage.

The Rejected Stone Became The Most Celebrated

The Rejected Stone Became The Most Celebrated

The rejected stone became the most celebrated. All thanks to the TRW Reputation Management services for the high and mighty in the society. The rejected stone, who would have thought that the rejected stone would eventually become the most celebrated? In just two weeks I became a shadow of myself. I was close to ending it all. In a split second, people forgot the good works I had been doing. They suddenly forgot how I single-handedly helped millions of children off the street. It was two weeks to the senatorial campaign. Like every other candidate,I woke up every day feeling giddy and hopeful. I looked forward to the campaign with so much confidence, knowing that I have been nothing but a blessing to most locals. Not that whatever I did was to get their loyalty, but then, it is only natural to think that the people you have helped will be supportive when you need them the most, but guess what? I thought wrong. A week into the campaign, I woke up to the shocker of my life, something that almost gave me a heart attack. My face was all over the media with heart-wrenching headlines. “Who did I offend?” was all I found the strength to mutter at every second. This was my past. An incident that happened when I was just a child. That particular incident is the inspiration for the charity work I do. No one was nice enough to think in that direction. For a minute, I had hoped that my PR team would handle the situation and it would die off in a matter of days but hell No, the more they tried, the messier the whole saga. My campaign was just 4 days away. How would an alleged sex worker show up confidently at the campaign? My only option was to quit the race and leave the country that was quick to bite the fingers that fed them. I had already started making plans to exit when my niece who interns with TRW Consult mentioned their Reputation Management services to me. I was reluctant to try them but my niece wouldn’t have it. Eventually, I reached out to them. Just in a few hours, my life came back on track. They did what my team couldn’t do in one week in less than 48 hours. All they did was to tell my truth in the most professional ways after I told them my story. I was never a sex worker but a young girl of 9 whose aunt turned into a hawker after the demise of her parents but eventually became a serial rape victim at age 11. This was the truth. Working with TRW was the best decision I made. The rejected stone became the most celebrated in a few hours. I didn’t only win the senatorial election, I also got Ambassadorial deals. Of course, after all that happened, I realized that politics wasn’t what I wanted. I left the victory to do what I loved doing most, humanitarian work. This time, I did it away from my home country. It’s been 4 years of working with TRW consults and their services have been nothing short of amazing and professional. They offer different services but Reputation management is one of their flagships and much sought-after services. They have an acclaimed reputation management bouquet for all categories of clients – public figures, multinationals, top executives, and public institutions, to position them in a favourable stead in public opinion and perception, as well as make them the subject of positive social discourse. If you fall in any of these categories, contact them right away to handle your public image using their time-tested method! With them, there’s no such thing as “bad publicity.” Don’t end it when you can get the best PR team to tell your truth and save the day. Visit their website to book a meeting. BV  

Playing Smart: How to Make the Best Use of Social Media for Business Opportunities

One visible difference between a 20th-century and the 21st-century marketplace is the ability to play smart in the latter. To work hard was fashionable advice given to business owners to get them to promote their business in the old time. But now, this advice has seen better days and working smart is the new normal. A necessary skill that every entrepreneur – whether greenhorn or expert – needs in the 21st-century business space is the ability to play smart in the digital space. And playing smart requires learning and acquiring vital information to help you maximise the digital space potential and be relevant. Social media in particular is crucial to business success. To this end, below is some relevant information that you need to have about some popular social media applications in order to be a smart digital market player. Facebook Facebook allows registered users to create profiles, upload photos and videos, send messages and keep in touch with friends, family and colleagues. Marketing on Facebook holds a lot of opportunities. To be a relevant player on the platform, you will need to be a constant creator of good content. You will also need to actively relate and interact with people who engage your posts. Prompt response to queries is especially important for attracting customers. Facebook allows users to create profiles for business marketing, political movement, companies, individuals, products and services. Facebook’s Primary Audience Facebook is simply too big to be ignored as an enduring social media platform for business digital marketing communications campaigns. Worldwide there are currently 2.93 billion monthly active users (MAU) on the platform. There is a 9% increase in Facebook’s MAUs every year.  It has over 26 million monthly active users in Nigeria alone. Facebook has users from all age demographics, making it one of the most diverse social channels. Users spend more time on Facebook (at least 40 minutes daily) than on any other social media platform. The platform can be an effective tool for small business owners to build an audience and image for their brand and business. Optimizing Posts on Facebook Highest traffic occurs mid-week between 1 pm and 3 pm. Engagement is 18% higher on Thursdays and Fridays. Posting only 1 or 2 times a day attracts the most engagement. Uses of Facebook for Business Marketing Building an audience and following for your brand. Interact with customers and fans by being there to answer questions and start discussions. Drawbacks Facebook can be a hard platform to stand out organically, as it has a fancy algorithm which is constantly changing. The algorithm favours content based on fans’ usage habits and past interactions. So just because you have X number of Facebook fans, that doesn’t mean all those fans are seeing each thing you post. It’s likely only the fans that interact with your page on a regular basis will see it since they have shown the most interest in your brand.   Twitter Twitter allows users to send and read short (280 characters) messages referred to as ‘tweets’, with the possibility of grouping tweets into threads.  The platform currently has over 750 million users and it is a great channel to engage with other users and make new connections. Many Twitter users are more likely to buy from brands or third-party influencers they like or follow on Twitter, so this can be a great and necessary tool for start-ups and small businesses. Twitter marketing strategy is centred around creating, publishing and distributing short, valuable content for followers. Concision and brevity advertisement is very important on Twitter because of limited character permission. This makes messages digestible and brisk enough for deals to be sealed quickly. Twitter’s Primary Audience Twitter’s largest demographic is young adults and has a pretty equal gender breakdown globally. Uses of Twitter for Business Marketing Following and engaging with other users who would be interested in what you have to offer. Interacting with your fan base and answering questions, resolving complaints and so on. Building relationships with current and prospective customers, partners and people within your network. Optimizing Posts on Twitter For Business to Business (B2B), weekdays provide more engagement than weekends. For Business to Customer (B2C), engagements and clicks are highest on weekends and midweek. A minimum of three tweets a day is recommended for optimal engagement. Drawback Unlike Facebook with a complex algorithm that determines the lifecycle of your business’s content, Twitter has a very short lifecycle. A tweet only has about an 18-minute lifespan, meaning that if you aren’t active and regularly posting, your content could be completely missed. LinkedIn LinkedIn is designed for the business community to network and connect. The site is clearly a popular one among the professional community. Linkedin allows you to set up a company and personal profile and connect with other professionals you may know or would like to know. You will be notified of status updates of the profile of your connections. LinkedIn is an essential site for a successful digital media marketing campaign. At present, it has over 690 million users from over 200 countries. It is known to be the most professional of the major networking platforms. Because it focuses more on B2B, it accounts for more major business leads on social media. LinkedIn’s Primary Audience LinkedIn is one of the only social networks with a majority of users who don’t fall between 18 and 29 years old. It is more popular among those that fall between 30 and 65 years old, ranging from those who are college graduates, higher income-level young professionals and high-net-worth individuals. Uses of LinkedIn for Business Marketing To showcase a workplace and what it’s like to work there. To post new job opportunities and recruit potential employees. To connect and engage with other business professionals. Optimizing Posts on LinkedIn One post per weekday allows you to reach approximately 60% of your audience. Drawback Since LinkedIn is a business-oriented platform targeted at the middle-aged and older generations, it won’t provide much value to businesses … Read more

What the Most Successful Business People Know About Brand Reputation

Brands like Apple are known to create products that make life easier for people. This is why they keep on releasing different products and making good sales on them. People know that these newer products would have updated features that would benefit them. That is what it means to have a good brand reputation.  Brand reputation is such an important aspect of business, and the most successful organisations employ it to gain competitive advantage. This article will give you an overview of what brand reputation is and how to make the most of it. WHAT IS BRAND REPUTATION? A brand includes all the factors that help identify a product, service, or company, distinguishing it from others. It goes beyond the name. It also involves the perception or feeling evoked from its target audience regarding the brand.  When we hear Nike, we think of fitness, exercise, drive, and healthy living. The brand encompasses all the problems that are solved for its audience and the people who experience them.  Reputation is the esteem in which people or organizations are placed based on past experiences. It is the opinion people have conceived. As a result, it holds deep meaning, and is usually tricky to turn around when it is bad.  A bad reputation will certainly soil the image of the brand and affect its sales. Damaging reputation can happen very fast and with little action, while building it can be a daunting task. Still, it is important to take cognizance of the kind of reputation one has, whether brand or personal. Brand reputation is the perception that has been developed over time about a brand and its operations. It is based on the image built by a brand over a long period of time, and it is a great determinant to brand turnover and acceptance by the target market. A brand with a good reputation usually has a good brand positioning.  Nowadays, it is easy for a brand to have a bad reputation based on consumer displeasure that may easily spread in the media. This makes it very important for brands to work actively on building and sustaining a good reputation.  WHY BRAND REPUTATION IS IMPORTANT The perceived notion people have about a brand can make or mar the brand. A brand reputation is important for many reasons, some of which include:  1. It enables marketing from users Word of mouth from people on their perception of a brand is crucial. While a brand may run ads and market its product, the reception of people is important to push the brand forward as most people will likely listen to others’ experience of the brand before going ahead to make a purchase. Word of mouth is an effective form of marketing a brand or a person. This means people determine the extent to which a brand is successful.  2. Proper brand reputation helps brands build trust in the mind of consumers When a brand has been known to deliver optimally, consumers are able to vouch for whatever comes from that brand. People are more likely to purchase from a brand that is reputable than one that doesn’t have a good rep on the market. 3. A good reputation breeds loyalty When a brand has a good reputation, people want to stick with that brand. And it almost feels like a disservice when they don’t purchase products from that brand or employ its services. 4. It helps to increase sales A brand with good standing in the eyes of people will have better sales turnover due to the belief people have in them. This belief typically converts to sales. The ultimate purpose of any brand is to make sales, and also to become widely known. This is mostly achieved through its representation in people’s minds. Ultimately, a good reputation gives a brand an edge over its competitors. HOW TO BUILD BRAND REPUTATION Knowing the importance of having a good reputation is not enough. You equally need to put in active effort towards building, creating, and sustaining this reputation. Since a brand’s reputation directly affects its growth, it is necessary to know how to build a good one. These steps, if implemented, will help the brand form a good evaluation in the minds of the consumers.  Create a good brand identity. Deliver on your brand promise. Build authenticity. People generally love brands that are original and they can relate with. Authenticity helps infuse life into a brand. Allow criticism. Respond to consumers’ feedback. Improve consumer involvement. Promote inclusivity. Build a great online experience/presence.   CONCLUSION  Having a great brand reputation is important as it helps turn your brand into one that gets community support and that people can speak for when the need arises. It gives the brand great competitive advantage and ultimately helps it increase its sales turnover. Ignore it at your peril. Rodiat Ajuwon is a Human Capital Development Enthusiast.
