      • Jun 2011 - Dec 2015

      I joined Retail Capital in its infancy and worked closely with a team of professional entrepreneurs to build a successful local business. I was hired as a marketing assistant and subsequently promoted to the role of Marketing Manager in my second year. I had a close working relationship with the CEO of the business and gained valuable insight into developing both a business and a brand from scratch. o I was directly responsible for all of the marketing related activities within the business and oversaw the initial launch of the brand into the local market place. o My contribution to the marketing deliverables directly influenced the national sales of the product; growing the company from a zero monthly revenue balance in June 2011, to a $156,000 monthly balance in under three years. o During my employ, the company grew from 6 employees to 60 employees and achieved a "break-even" status in its third year.

      While completing my studies, I conceptualised and authored the website, Sassysaysbooks. This website offered a variety of book reviews on the latest releases in stores and served as a reference point for books lovers and keen readers. Partnering with Penguin Group South Africa, I was sponsored monthly books for review covering a wide range of topics from Self Help to Teen Fiction – and everything in between! The website ran successfully for a period of four years until I retired the project in order to focus on marketing full time. Show less
