  • Episode 27 | Pepe Marais | Entrepreneur, Businessman, Deep Thinker, Creative

    On this episode we chat with the Legendary Pepe Marais. We talk business, company culture, passion, purpose and we talk about his new book "20 habits that break habits"

    Pepe the author of Growing Greatness, published in 2018. Part autobiography, part business case study, the book details the development of his Purpose for Business methodology and offers key lessons in how to unlock both human and business potential. Including numerous lessons for both aspiring entrepreneurs and business leaders, Growing Greatness has been on Exclusive Books’ top 10 business books since it launched.

    A serial entrepreneur since childhood, Marais and business partner, Gareth Leck, co-founded the highly successful Joe Public advertising agency in 1998. The agency’s Take-Away Advertising concept disrupted traditional advertising agency models and resulted in the agency winning the coveted Financial Mail Emerging Agency of the Year award in its first year of operation.
    Joe Public was nominated as one of SA’s companies to watch in its second year. In its third year of business, the agency was sold to DraftFCB America. Marais and Leck went on to buy Joe Public back from DraftFCB in 2009, ensuring the agency was once again a 100% proudly South African entity.
    Joe Public United is currently ranked the top independent and fastest-growing South African advertising groups, which includes a strategic brand design agency (Joe Public Shift), a mobile first above-the-line agency (Joe Public), a digital agency (Joe Public Connect), an activations agency (Joe Public Ignite), and a PR agency (Joe Public Engage) in Johannesburg, with an expanding network into Africa. The Joe Public brand is also represented in Amsterdam through its revolutionary Joe Public Take-Away advertising model.

  • Episode 23 | Dave Nemeth | Entrepreneur, Trend Analyst, Future Focused, Human Centric

    On this episode we chat with Dave about his journey, the business he has created called Trend Forward and his feelings about business unusual.

    Started by Dave Nemeth in 2010, the business was initially purely a trend consultancy specialising in design, retail and the built environment. This led to us consulting to a broad base of business sectors who engaged with us in creating innovative concepts to assist them in staying ahead of their competitors. One of the obstacles we faced on this journey was getting the creative agencies to embrace our strategy and execute according to plan. It was through this stumbling block that we realised we should put together our own creative team so that we could fully execute the innovative initiatives that we were putting in place. The company as it is today offers a full service including all creative aspects: across the line solutions as well as virtual solutions.

     

    We work with both medium and large-scale businesses and have tailored packed to suit start-ups and smaller entities. Analysing trends and consumer attitudes remains a firm foundation for our work ensuring we have a good understanding of your business sector so we can position your brand as a leader and differentiated in a world where those that stand out have a better chance of growth. Anticipating the future through detailed research ensures that the brands we work with remain relevant at every single touchpoint.
