IP05 · SOURCE SIGNALS

What the transcript puts on the table.

It was interesting because COVID and it's still going on, COVID actually helps us just modify and help our brand model, our brand become a hell of a lot more dynamic than what it used to be.
I think the beauty of hitting, I'm saying the beauty of COVID hitting us during the point of the inception of the company enabled us to actually look at it as a completely blank canvas and figure out how things need to be actually moved forward.
We don't have any of that stuff because we are so new and we have the capacity to actually make those changes which will help us in growing our business further.

How did you get to the business? To be honest, actually in the very beginning it was a shock because we didn't expect something, no one could expect something of this nature to take place and especially when you're starting off your business. But we looked at the bright side and we did figure out that a lot of people would have to actually modify their business model to figure out how to actually do proper marketing within this particular point in time. I think the beauty of hitting, I'm saying the beauty of COVID hitting us during the point of the inception of the company enabled us to actually look at it as a completely blank canvas and figure out how things need to be actually moved forward.

Our model of collaboration also helped us a hell of a lot because we ended up actually giving the best to the client at probably a very competitive pricing model also. So I think a combination of both of those things helped us in a bit. But it was interesting because COVID and it's still going on, COVID actually helps us just modify and help our brand model, our brand become a hell of a lot more dynamic than what it used to be. I think a lot of larger agencies are very, have a fair bit of legacy issues. We don't have any of that stuff because we are so new and we have the capacity to actually make those changes which will help us in growing our business further. So, we're going to make those changes which will help us in growing our business further.
