Media

This October 2008, my rubber arm was twisted into spending precious marketing budget to be a sponsor of the JHB AMASA (Advertising and Media Association of South Africa) function 2008 – The Special Ops Party. As can be expect, our Studentwise promoters were yet again dressed up, as seems to be norm over the past two months, and left to run about with guns filled with shots, welcome guests, face paint unsuspecting victims and generally be more trouble than help. But in all seriousness, a big hat off to our JHB Isilumko Media Branch for assisting in the event and managing our staff in what sounded like organized chaos. The event is an integral part of AMASA’s fundraising and our financial and resources contribution undoubtedly assisted in the overall success of the event this year.

Isilumko Media had its first ever public showcase this June at Markex. Our fabulous stand was designed to emphasize that Isilumko Media is a business centered on one-on-one interactions between brands and customers thus people are the key ingredient in our service offering. This being the focus, our stand had not only real people, but fake ones too!
