Inauguration of the exhibition Searching for the Art of the Comic Strip!

We have worked with the Embassy of Belgium on the print and installation of this exhibition… The exhibition is taking place at the Alliance Francaise Dar es Salaam until the 31st March! Karibu! 

“Once upon a time, a long time ago, a man could not read or write.

Incidentally, the words “read” and “write” did not exist. No more than any other. To express himself, to tell, to venerate, he invented the drawing”. Comics is not the result of a discovery. It is the result of an ever stronger complicity between the desire to tell and the art of drawing. It is the most literary plastic arts. In Belgium, comics have grown into a veritable institution. In most Belgian homes you will find a collection of comics or even an entire library dedicated to comic strips. More than half of the books published or produced in Belgium are comics, but the real creators of the 20th century Belgian Kingdom of the Comic Strip are its more than seven
hundred artists and scriptwriters.

Taking place this month was the presentation on Mining and Petroleum Local Content by our client FB Attorneys. And our team was there to support with photography and design.

This month we also welcomed a new client: Massirat Salaam from Oman.

We have developed a brand new site for Massirat and have enjoyed working with their management team…

What a beautiful place indeed!

 

With more and more people joining social media sites and using them regularly/efficiently, the social media industry is bound to become bigger in the coming years. It’s booming like never.

Yes, the social media wave isn’t ending anytime soon. And your business should take advantage of it if you want it to survive.

By giving your business brand the social media touch, you not only generate more business but also connect with your customers better and serve them on a higher level. It actually makes your online marketing easier.

According an infographic published by Ambassador, 71% of consumers are more likely to recommend a brand to others if they have a positive experience with it on social media.

Here are some more social media statistics that prove beyond doubt that your business needs to leverage sites like Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn to keep up with the competition.

• The number of social media-using adults has gone from 7% in 2005 to 69% just ten years later.
  Social media use on mobile devices is seeing a 30% growth every year.
• 2 million business today use Facebook advertising for promoting their products and services.

When compared to traditional advertising methods such as print media, TV and radio advertising, social ads are not only dependable, but also cheaper. What’s more, you’re allowed to engage on various social media channels for free before scaling with paid ads. You’re free to grow on your own, at your own pace.

Traditional advertising doesn’t give you the luxury to reach out to your target audience the way social media ads do. It simply doesn’t work that way. When you’re doing offline advertising, you’re taking the blind, shotgun approach where your returns are dismal even if you’re making big investments. Using social media ads you reach out to targeted prospects, increase your conversions and ultimately get a higher return on investment.

Last but not the least, it’s important for businesses of all types to understand that social media ads are only getting bigger and smarter. Social media advertising is where the future is headed. It’s the new wave. The question is, are you a part of it?

Jumping on the social media bandwagon is no longer a matter of choice if you want to succeed. Your business needs it. Every business needs it. It’s more needed than ever.

Our beaches are the bridge between our world and the ocean. Beaches are fragile environments. We must be attentive in how we treat these stretches of land. Each individual can better the ocean’s ecosystem by playing their part in keeping the beaches clean. The process is simple, easy, and a great lesson for the entire family!

This February we are showing our love for the environment by collaboration on the Beach Clean Up Event at Ocean Road Beach on the 17th, from 7am. Please join us! 

It is necessary to keep our beaches clean if we hope to keep our oceans clean. The sand and surf is far more than a place to build sand castles and take a dive. Beaches are home to various creatures from sea lions to sea turtles. Many animals depend on land to survive. Land that is untainted by chemical wastes or human wastes. Marine life, dwelling only in the water, are also affected by waste on beaches. When the tides rise, they collect items on the beach and take the items out when the water lowers, including trash. This can have negative effects on marine life.

Trash and plastic pollution affect 100 million marine mammals each year. Animals do not know that a shiny candy wrapper is not meant to be eaten. It can easily be mistaken as a fish or piece of kelp. If ingested our trash can cause harm. However, trash can cause injury even if it is not ingested, Creatures have been reported having straws stuck in their noses, or head stuck in plastic bottle rings.  There are ways to prevent this from happening to our ocean creatures. By keeping this environment trash free we help protect and preserve marine life.
