EP 32: How Social Media Strategist Lola Bakare Launched Her Own Company


Listen Later

Today in the guest chair we have Lola Bakare, a Social Media Strategist, savvy Content Marketer and the founder of LOLA Consulting. LOLA Consulting specializes in digital marketing including user acquisition, brand messaging, partnership development, and social media strategy. Fun fact, Lola and I went to undergrad together and I admire her greatly. Why? Because she followed the path well traveled for many years, before finally leaping into entrepreneurship.

On this episode, Lola shares:

  • Her pathway from majoring in English at Penn to landing in Brand Management by chance
  • Why she ultimately got her MBA and how it influenced her current path as an entrepreneur
  • How she succumbed to pressure when MBA recruiters came knocking
  • How she finally worked up the nerve to found her own company
  • Why she focuses on the WORK first and the fluff later
