The company was established in 2013 and is under the astute leadership of a skilled industry expert, Velly Bosega, who is also the founder and CEO.

The company has executed a high number of very successful digital campaigns across many channels that include, programmatic, search, display, social, PPC and social media. The diverse client base is made up of high profile players in the automotive, FMCG, travel, Financial and TELCOS. Our portfolio boasts of clients like MTN, Standard Bank, Unilever, Suzuki and Coca-Cola.

We, therefore, bring to the hospitality industry unparalleled wealth of knowledge and experience that will enable hotels to grow their revenue by reducing their dependency on Online Travel Agencies (OTAs). Our core focus is on direct booking strategies and the reason is simple, direct is always best and the fact that OTAs charge high commissions and make guest data anonymous makes the quest for alternatives imperative.

As a company that seeks to add value to our clients’ businesses, we have taken the audacious step of guaranteeing results for the campaigns we run. Most agencies shun away from this commitment but we are confident.
