2. THE PLAN
As a professional marketing strategist, a young and vibrant Nigerian who believes in the power of
social media, I will leverage from it to reachout to my target audience especially on twitter by
creating an online campaign with challenge future. To over 60,000+ followers on my personal
twitter handle and via my blog with over 5,000+followers.
MARKETING STRATEGY
I have created stickers on challenge future and placed on public vehicles
I have also been able to strictly use Guerilla Marketing on my campaign.
By Ec marketing a top brand worldwide I landed the number 14 spot on Top 100 marketer to follow
on twitter http://bit.ly/omapgD
Getting to partner with major likeminded organizations around me to enlighten more youths NGO’s
like leapafrica, Youwin Nigeria, Youthict. Also as I have a very strong backup from my government
it is an advantage to reachout to even greater potential target audience.
Reaching out to students of the Federal University of Technology Akure Via the school radio and the
people of Ondo State in general
Also, mentioning young and active Nigerian on challengefuture.org/signup via twitter
Explaining the need for challenge future and its importance to the world if the youths come together
in one platform to creative thinking to bring about the change we seek and innovations we need via
my blog (socialtechy.com) & personal facebook profile page and small seminars
Getting more interested youths to follow challenge future on twitter and like on facebook to never
miss out on recent events.
