Description
In this episode, we learn how an engineer, brand-maven and mother is empowering the next generation of Nigerian social marketers and influencers. For this week’s guest, Amin Amen is using her Instagram profile and hashtags @EverythingnaArt to empower a new generation of social media marketers and Influencers for the African market. Amin’s goal is to teach young Nigerians how to use online marketing skills to serve businesses, corporations, and brands operating in Africa looking for novel ways to navigate the realities of a new media and content driven marketplace. Some students have earned money on the side, while others have turned their skills into own full blown business. For Amin the ability to see art in everything became an ethos, a way of seeing possibilities in even the worst of circumstances. She challenges her students to do the same. Make something out of nothing, turn your distractions into income, and be the champion of your life.
