Digital-first agency drives profits and purpose – Jamaica Observer

One Great Studio is a "digital-first agency" focused on using digital marketing assets "to drive profits and purpose", according to CEO Djuvane Browne and Chief Operating Officer Gina DeLisser.

Emphasising the mantra that "digital is more than social", the two co-founders also clarify that the company does not sell websites nor does it just sell digital services, but offers measurable outcomes to its clients by using digital media to drive business.

Though both met as teens at Moorlands Christian Camp in Mandeville, Manchester, Browne and DeLisser do not consider their business partnership to be mere coincidence or luck, but the result of divine intervention that orchestrated their reunion later in life to support each other's professional pursuits and complement each other's skill set.

In fact, it was the same Moorlands Christian Camp that would serve as the ground where the seeds of One Great Studio were planted. It was there, too, that Browne honed his entrepreneurial skills, gleaning from the expertise of several businessmen who sat on the board of management for the campsite.

In 2012, after spending almost a decade as a self-employed freelancer and solopreneur designing and building websites for various clients, Browne began operations at Moorlands while serving with his wife to manage the facility.

"One Great Studio was really a transition for me from being a solopreneur to taking on a partner. When we started out a lot of clients I had built up over the years before came over to start One Great Studio," he told Jamaica Observer at the company's small boardroom off Lady Musgrave Road in New Kingston.

Though its name suggests otherwise, the company's head office consists of possibly less than 3,000 square feet including the founder's office, a meeting room and a office space shared by about four team members. Starting with only four employees including Browne as the sole proprietor and DeLisser as a contracted freelancer, the company has grown to over 23 team members.

One Great Studio also operates from another office in Florida in the United States due to having served US-based churches and ministries as its first clients in the start-up phase of the company. With no cash injection, the company began with two computers and the income from these US clients serving as cash flow to cover expenses and support growth.

"At the time we were serving a lot of US churchesand they would basically outsource all their design and web work to us," Browne explained.

"One of the interesting things is we did work for a church in Texas that got picked up by a US company that was promoting this church and brought us a whole bunch of other churches," he added.

From there the company began to grow its clientle, but also its service offering as clients as demand increased. Within a few years One Great studio landed its first local corporate client in IronRock insurance company.

The year 2013 marked a pivotal year in the life of the company as Browne and DeLisser cemented their partnership. After DeLisser contributed to the promotion of an album produced for gospel artiste DJ Nicholas, she decided to become a full-time team member. However, Browne had greater plans and invited his long-time compatriot to partner with him in growing the business and serve as chief operating officer.

"I was working on my own for a long time and that has its limitationsand so we worked together on a couple of projects and I found that the projects were better with her input. So I said to her, 'I would like to join'," he revealed.

For DeLisser the invitation to enter into partnership with her former campmate was an answered prayer. Although she had spent the previous years working in public relations for a Jamaica Stock Exchange-listed company, she was longing to apply the training in graphic design she received from York University in Toronto, Canada, to drive business revenue. As such, she responded and she took up the offer and joined Browne in Mandeville to manage two new recruits from Northern Caribbean University.

Both DeLisser and Browne would eventually relocate to the Corporate Area and with it One Great Studio also relocated its operations to the same locale.

For Browne, the move was more so to take up an opportunity in ministry serving as youth director at his local church, Swallowfield Chapel. While balancing the demands of ministry and business, the CEO said he "felt the strain of" the "divided attention" to both areas of his life. Soon the business's performance started to decline, and after a year and half the CEO was contemplating full-time ministry.

Sharing with Business Observer that this period in the business "is a big part of where we are today", Browne noted that, again, divine intervention would give the business its second wind and he, too, felt a new sense of purpose. On his birthday in 2016 he received a call from Jamaica Broilers Chairman Robert Levy requesting help with a website listing on Vrbo. This, he said, was an opportunity to demonstrate one of the value-added services of the company.

According to Browne, upon completion Levy said to him, "Djuvane, you're sitting on a billion-dollar business."

Not doubting the sage advice of the businessman, Browne disclosed his crisis of commitment with Levy explaining the challenges he faced balancing ministry, business and his role as a father and husband. What Levy told him next would have a lasting impression on his life: he too faced a similar dichotomy of wanting to serve in ministry while handling the responsibility of managing a company.

However, Levy noted that had he served as missionary, his life would not have had as meaningful an impact in God's Kingdom as serving as CEO and chairman of the conglomerate.

"Djuvane, you have to know whether you're called to the front line or to the pipeline," Levy told him, assuring him that there is a place in ministry for people who provide funding for others on the mission field.

Taking this council from Levy, Browne said his new vision for One Great Studio was to be the "place where people wanted to work", and so within a year the company's staff complement doubled to eight. After another year, it grew to 16 team members, and continued to grow even during COVID to now number 23. This growth in personnel was, in fact, a reflection of the increased demands of clients for new services as the company employed more staff members to meet the requests.

In addition to website design and development, One Great Studio began offering graphic design, community management, content strategy and development for websites, as well as social media management and strategy.

"I think it's important to mention that when we were adding services as clients requested, it was all along the lines of our overall focus for businesses, which is 'digital strategies that drive profits and purpose'. So we're big on connecting the dots across what we call digital assets. So our goal is primarily to serve businesses well and help businesses accomplish their goals through whatever digital marketing work we're involved with," DeLisser, who manages the day-to-day operations of the company, said.

The addition of new services was never ad hoc, she explained, but rather "thoughtful", "measured" and "intentional", aligning with the growth trajectory of the company while delivering results to clients, reiterating the company's commitment to outcomes.

When asked what it means to be a "digital-first agency", Browne noted, "We have the capacity to be a full-service [marketing] agency be we don't want to do all the different things, We want to play in a space where we're already established and we think we're best able to do that in a digital space. If a client wants to spend mostly on traditional [media], we're not the best agency; but if a client wants to spend mostly on digital and some on traditionalwe prioritise digital over traditional."

With demand for new services driving new employment, the company has had to invest heavily in training with a view to entrench the company's culture of delivering outcomes. This includes workshops focused on reviewing the lessons from past projects as well as cross-training among specialists.

"We don't just want our team to have their knowledge [and skills] alone. They have to have an understanding of where we're heading," the CEO told Business Observer.

Apart from training, the company has changed the roles of account executives to client success managers as they bridge the gap between businesses and the designers and developers who execute the project. Furthermore, Browne has plans to provide business model training to managers in order for them to understand how the company's service contributes to its clients' success.

"From the very beginning this was Djuvane's process. You're not just selling a website; you're also doing consulting," DeLisser outlined, adding that the company has what it terms a "good fit call" which helps clients identify and prioritise their digital media needs.

Now the company is looking forward to growth having recently acquired an international company engaged in providing search engine optimisation (SEO) and converter rate optimisation (CRO).

Whereas an SEO allows a company to improve its ranking in online searches by using keywords to drive traffic to websites and apps, a CRO will help a business to convert visitors to websites and apps to become sales leads and, ultimately, revenue generation. Already, One Great Studio has the software that tracks impressions on websites, apps and social media that become sales leads and revenue.

Though tight-lipped on the company recently acquired, Browne disclosed that the company's staff complement will again double, to 46, and will include international team members serving an internationally diverse client base. Moreover, he pointed to the growth of the company in the Caribbean.

"The truth is that with the scale and the capacity we have now developed through our own growth locally and then the incorporation of the newly acquired company, it puts us in a place where there are not a lot of digital agencies at our size with our capacity in the Caribbean. So a big part of what we want to do right now is to expand into the Caribbean, not just the Caribbean but the region," Browne stated.

10 Korean Comedies That Are Perfect for Your Next Weekend Binge – MovieWeb

Theres no better way to de-stress than to watch K-dramas that will leave you doubling over with laughter. The Korean entertainment industry does a good job of merging various genres together to provide the audience with a unique, entertaining experience. From action comedies to historical comedies to rom-coms, there are a lot of options to pick from. Without further ado, here are some Korean comedies to binge-watch this weekend:

Those who like historical comedies will enjoy Mr. Queen. Directed by Yun Seong Sik, the same man behind Hwarang, Mr. Queen brings an interesting twist to usual historical time-travel tropes. It follows celebrity chef, Jang Bong-Hwan who is taken away from the comforts of his modern-day life and transported into the Joseon period. But thats not the catch. Not only is Bong-Hwan transported to the past, but he finds himself stuck in the body of Queen Kim So-Yong (portrayed by Shin Hye-Sun). Its hilarious to see him trying to navigate through the world as a woman, while also making sure the King (portrayed by Kim Jung-Hyun) is not suspicious.

Those that are looking for absurd humor, will absolutely love Welcome to Waikiki. The drama follows a trio of friends who have big dreams but are limited due to financial and circumstantial obstacles. Kang Dong-Goo (Kim Jung-Hyun) wants to be a movie director, Cheon Joon-Ki (Lee Yi-Kyung) wants to be an actor, and Bong Doo-Sik (Son Seung-Won) wants to be a scenario writer.

To make ends meet, the trio runs a guest house called Waikiki in Itaewon. However, things take an interesting turn when they not only find themselves on the verge of bankruptcy, but also find a mysterious baby and a single mother at their doorstep. The drama has some absolutely absurd moments that will have the audience guffawing. Those already familiar with K-drama land will discover that many popular K-drama memes originate from Welcome to Waikiki.

Strong Woman Do Bong Soon is a romantic comedy that will have you doubling over in laughter as you whip tears from your eyes. It follows the titular character, Bong-Soon (Park Bo-Young), who has superhuman strength, that was passed down to the women in her family. Bong Soon is eventually hired as a bodyguard by Min-Hyuk (Park Hyung-Sik), the CEO of a video game company. As the drama progresses, the two end up falling in love with each other. The audience cant help but feel amused at the cute dynamics between the two and the situations they end up in due to Bong Soons superhuman strength.

South Korea may be well known for its rom-com, but Korean action/crime dramas are also quite phenomenal. When paired with comedy, the genre becomes even more enjoyable (given if its executed properly). The Fiery Priest is a great example of such a drama. It follows the titular character Kim Hae-Il, a Catholic priest, who teams up with a timid detective (Kim Sung-Kyun) and an ambitious prosecutor to solve a murder case involving a senior Catholic priest. Hae-Ils spiteful remarks often lead to amusing situations. Plus, the dynamics between the trio also lead to hilarious situations.

Based on Hye Jin-Yangs webcomic Nokdujeon, The Tale of Nokdu is a historical drama that centers around the titular character, Jeon Nok-Du (Jang Doon-Yoon). Nok-Du disguises himself as a woman to enter a widows village to uncover the truth behind the assassin's attack on his family. During his stay in the widows village, Nok-Du also encounters Dong Dong-Ju (Kim So-Hyun), who is training to become a gisaeng (women from lower social and financial class who trained to become professional artists). Its hilarious to see Nok-Du end up in hilarious situations as he tries to act like a woman, while also trying to uncover the truth regarding the assassins. The interactions between Nok-Du and Prince Neungyang (Kang Tae-Oh) will leave one highly amused.

Directed and written by Kwak Jae-Young, My Sassy Girl is a classic K-drama rom-com. It follows Gyun-Woo (Chae Tae-Hyun) who ends up saving a drunken girl (Gianna Jun) from falling over the subway tracks. As the two run into each other more often, they end up developing a relationship. However, things dont go as smoothly as expected and the two end up breaking with one another. They do write letters to each other, which they put in time capsules to read after two years. The drama is a good mix of wholesome and comedic moments, perfect for those who are looking for a feel-good watch.

30 Digital Nomad Jobs to Consider (and How to Grab One) – Fordham Ram

Are you tired of the daily grind of a traditional office job? Do you dream of traveling the world while still earning a living?

If so, consider becoming a digital nomad.

As the world becomes more connected, the opportunities for remote work have increased drastically. However, many people need help to figure out where to start or what options are available. Thats where this article comes in.

We aim to provide you with a comprehensive list of digital nomad jobs and guide you through finding and securing one. From freelance writing to digital marketing, we will cover a range of industries and professions that offer the flexibility and freedom to work from anywhere.

In this article, we will explore 30 of the best digital nomad jobs that allow you to work from anywhere in the world, whether on a beach in Bali or a coffee shop in Paris.

So, lets get started!

Graphic Designer is a term that most people are familiar with. This is the perfect career for anyone who considers themselves creative.

It is common for graphic designers to work freelancing jobs, as well as run their own agencies or work remotely for larger companies as a way to earn a living. Since the pandemic has forced businesses to move their operations online, it has become even more attractive for digital nomads.

A UX or UI designer is in high demand right now; these roles typically pay well and allow you to work from anywhere. If you want to get hired in either case, youll need specialized training and expertise.

To make money with one of these, you should probably brush up on your knowledge and get some experience first.

There are a wide variety of remote work opportunities that fall under the label of Virtual Assistant (VA). Your job as a virtual assistant will be to assist clients with their online operations.

The average hourly salary for a virtual assistant may be $20 USD if you are just starting out. However, the more specialized your services are, the more you can charge per hour.

The App Developer role is another well-paying option on our list of digital nomad jobs. In order to get started in app development, you have two options: either work for a company or create your own.

Almost any company, large or small that wants to offer mobile services to its clients or employees falls into this category.

Online tutoring has been a common source of income for nomads for decades now. As a result of todays technological advancements, sharing your knowledge with students all over the world is much easier than ever before.

All you need is a pair of headphones, a computer, and internet access. In addition, it is important to have a basic understanding of the subject matter. As an online tutor, you can earn around $10 an hour initially. And with positive feedback, you can quickly increase your hourly rate to $20$30 and work longer and more frequently each day.

Do you have in-depth knowledge of relevant technologies and the patience to work with others who do not? If yes, you might thrive as an online tech support expert.

The role is ideal for digital nomads since all communication is done via the Internet (email, chat, or phone).

There are numerous businesses that want to offer their clients round-the-clock service. So dont worry about the time difference; it could actually work in your favor. Stable internet service is all thats needed to maintain contact during a call or chat.

As a social media manager, you are responsible for managing the online profiles and activities of your company. It is your responsibility to increase the brands visibility and interact with users through social media channels such as Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook, and Twitter.

One of the advantages of this position is its flexibility, and you can have as many clients as you want.

Are you good at making connections and have experience in recruitment? If so, you may be perfect for a job as an online recruiter. As with any recruiter, this is the same job: finding qualified candidates for the company.

Usually, payments represent a set percentage of the talents first annual salary. Therefore, its in your best interests to hire as many highly competent (and well-paid) candidates as possible.

An ideal career path for digital nomads is becoming a travel influencer. Travel influencers create and publish visual content, like videos and pictures, for their audience.

The following are some of the ways that travel influencers make money online: promoting brands products, going on press tours, etc.

You can work from anywhere, making it the ideal option for digital nomads. All you need is just a camera to capture photographs and videos!

Proofreading or editing is another option if you have excellent grammar and spelling skills. A customer will hand you a piece of content and ask you to check it for grammatical and spelling errors.

There may be clients who ask you to simplify long articles or alter their flow. It is your responsibility to make sure the content is accurate since you are the last one to view it.

The career of a content writer is one of the most interesting and potentially lucrative online careers. You may make money writing articles on a wide range of topics, from alternative medicine and music news to fashion and parenting.

In addition, becoming a content writer isnt that difficult. Having the ability to write content tailored for search results will increase your job opportunities and salary.

The majority of a translators work as a digital nomad involves translating information between languages. Once their tasks are scheduled, they can work anywhere they want. There are no special degrees or training requirements to get started.

Most translators work for either an agency they have previously worked with or repeat customers, or a mix of both.

There is a greater demand for transcriptionists than you might expect. The often poor quality of recordings requires an ear with a keen sense of hearing. Additionally, you need lightning-fast typing accuracy; otherwise, the task will take you much longer. There are some tasks that require a higher level of expertise, such as medical transcriptions.

You can find transcription jobs on the following websites: Transcribe Me, AccuTran Global, and Scribie.

Videography is the complete process of making a video, from scripting to shooting to editing. A majority of digital nomad videographers earn a living through post-production, while others travel to film locations when requested by clients.

In addition, some digital nomad videographers generate and market sample video footage, though they do this more as a freelancer on Fiverr than as small firms with established clientele.

Youve seen the credits at the end of movies and videos, right? Captioning involves writing these words out at the right time and putting them into readable text.

Its crucial not just for deaf people but for anyone who wants to watch a movie or TV show without sound. You dont need any special qualifications as such. However, speedy typing is an added advantage.

Podcasting is an increasingly popular format that is poised to become the norm in the years to come.

A podcast creator sees the whole process from a birds-eye view and pushes the team toward the best possible result while maintaining consistency.

Its a valuable skill to have. If you can train yourself to do this regularly and effectively, youll have a lot to offer clients.

Its the job of moderators and community managers to keep discussion boards and review sites free of offensive or inappropriate stuff. For instance, they hide private phone numbers or delete offensive or disrespectful comments.

Most companies provide some sort of orientation or training before you start, so you wont need any special knowledge.

In terms of potential earnings and career advancement, vlogging is one of the most sought-after digital nomad jobs.

Its a great idea to use Vlogging as a marketing strategy (client base) to sell something else.

The success of a vlogger depends on his or her ability to attract an audience and use that audience to sell their own product or service or another product or service that can generate money.

Unless you use search engine optimization strategies, you wont have much luck selling anything online. In todays digital age, your business doesnt exist if its not on the first 5 pages of Google. Because of this, SEO specialists are in demand.

Individuals with the right training and experience can make a fortune in this field.

Nowadays, most companies generate leads and negotiate sales using email, phone, and video conferencing. The same goes for insurance sales.

Whether its health, a vehicle, home, life, personal property, or any other kind of insurance, insurance sales agents can operate from anywhere in the world.

The only thing you need to get started is a high school diploma or General Equivalency Diploma (GED).

Considering the current state of the world, I think its safe to say weve all taken part in some pointless virtual meetings.

Virtual conferences and training sessions are hosted by virtual hosts, where a huge online community can participate. They make sure everyone is participating and the meeting stays on track.

With more and more of our business moving online, Virtual Hosting is becoming increasingly important.

There are a lot of companies looking for social media experts, and not just generic ones. And one such social media platform that we are addressing here is Pinterest.

It will help if you have both the time and skill to create enticing pins. Having a solid plan is also important, including knowing when to post what, how to use keywords, etc. For business owners, hiring a Pinterest assistant is a substantial investment and a big time saver. Its a great online opportunity for anyone whos artistic.

The obvious benefit of selling digital goods online is that you dont have to worry about logistics. And since its virtual, selling digital products or services could be easily managed.

Among the digital products you could sell are books, programs, images, exercises, tutorials, movies, and auto-files.

Its true that accountants deal with a lot of paperwork. But what if you hired clients who dont like paperwork? Wouldnt it be great if you could offer your bookkeeping and accounting services to your fellow digital nomads?

There are many people who need help organizing their personal and corporate accounts.

If you are someone who is good at accounting, thats a great expertise to explore.

The purpose of affiliate marketing is to promote third-party products and services for a commission based on any sales generated. This is not as simple as it sounds. Thus, affiliate marketers who specialize in this field are essential.

If you have an affiliate marketing expert, you can either work for clients and help them, or you can earn money independently, such as with YouTube videos.

Nowadays, many businesses hire financial advisors remotely, so more and more people can work from home. Finding customers through freelance work is another option.

Having the right credentials and experience will enable you to help your clients resolve their financial challenges.

If you have a reliable internet connection, video editing can be a digital nomad job that allows you to work from anywhere in the world.

With the right editing software and a laptop, you can work as a freelance video editor, taking on projects from clients and completing them remotely.

The word consulting is so versatile. Your ability to help others can be put to use in helping them resolve their issues. Among the most sought-after specializations for online consultants are sales, finance, and life counseling.

Take a moment to consider your skills. Perhaps you can identify a profitable niche and master it.

A common misconception is that interior designers must always be physically present on the job site. However, you may be surprised to learn that online services are in high demand. Customers prefer to view their potential homes online rather than in person.

The customer and designer collaborate closely through electronic means, such as Skype or email. Once they settle on a strategy, the designer can earn commissions whenever the client buys products from his suggested list.

30 Digital Nomad Jobs to Consider (and How to Grab One) - Fordham Ram

Agency roundup: Evoluted; Aberfield Communications; Prohibition … – The Business Desk

Sheffield-based digital agency, Evoluted, has won a joint SEO and PPC contract with northern pharmacist Weldricks.

Weldricks heritage stretches back to the 1930s and its presence has grown to 59 pharmacies across the north of England, with an especially strong footprint in South Yorkshire.

The brand has a mature online presence dating back to 1998, but during initial discussions with Weldricks, Evoluteds marketing team identified new areas of search behaviour to capitalise on and improvements to better manage the split between organic and paid keyword targeting to optimise ad spend.

The agencys managing director, Giorgio Cassella, said: Were thrilled to be working with a company of Weldricks stature and were relishing the challenge of taking an already strong online presence to the next level.

The medical space can be difficult to navigate for marketers, but our team has plenty of experience running campaigns involving Your Money, Your Life (YMYL) keywords which will serve us well with this project.

Being appointed for both SEO and PPC is a great reflection of our full-service expertise and our ability to run truly integrated campaigns across channels.

The client win is the latest in a string of recent marketing contract wins for Evoluted which have included major UK pub company Stonegate Group, social enterprise Printed By Us and fashion retailer Sorelle.

:::

Leeds-based Aberfield Communications has been appointed by coffee specialist Lincoln & York Coffee Roasters as its trade and corporate communications consultancy.

Aberfield was appointed following a competitive pitch process and will deliver a focused programme of strategic PR and social media consultancy and wider marketing support, to help further establish Lincoln & York as the private label partner of choice across the hospitality, retail and wholesale sectors.

The manufacturer behind hundreds of the countrys best known blends, Lincoln & York has been operating out of its home in Brigg for over 29 years and turns over nearly 50m.

Keely Wade, marketing manager at Lincoln & York, said: We pride ourselves on driving growth for customers through the quality of our coffee, our expertise and market knowledge, and the robustness of our supply chain and global network, which Aberfield intimately understood during the pitch phase.

We were really impressed with the teams creative approach to trade and corporate communications, as well as their clear enthusiasm for the brand and were excited to be working together to drive consideration of Lincoln & York and affirm our position as the best kept secret in coffee.

Erin Jones, senior consultant at Aberfield Communications, added: As an office full of coffee lovers, we jumped at the chance to work with Lincoln & York.

The companys passion for providing sustainably sourced, high-quality coffee was evident from the off, and through a concentrated programme of insight gathering, we quickly identified some exciting opportunities to reintroduce them to our extensive media network and potential new customers.

Across both corporate and trade channels, Lincoln & York has plenty to shout about this year, so were looking forward to kick-starting activity and helping to further bolster the credentials of one of the coffee industrys highest regarded manufacturers.

However, we pride ourselves on staying ahead of the latest innovations by taking a proactive approach and utilising the most updated and sophisticated software and dedicated systems.
