Badman's Business Venture

[Badman]

Thanks for the encouragement guys

Badman, just out of curiosity, how much was spent to start this business?

 

Zero!

 

To give an explanation, Me and my 2 bros were already doing freelance work and contracting, we also shared the same limited company so that was more or less the business admin side sorted. 

 

Transition from there was really easy as the foundations were already set in place

 

The only expense we had once we established it as a business was to get equipment like laptops, monitors, peripherals etc for our workers and in terms of office space, we were really lucky as my brother did some freelance work for a company and they let us chill in a bank of 6 desks for the first couple of months for free. It got a bit peak when we started growing then had to squeeze 7/8 of us into that small area so then we started to pay for it.

Quick lil update....

 

- We recently moved into our own office in Shoreditch, where we occupy the basement from some other company which is quite cool, they let us do what we like and dont give us no hassle

 

- There are now 8 of us we been growing nicely, the most recent came on board last week to look after our social media/analytic's etc

 

- Most of our clients thus far haven't been taking us serious as an established company and have been messing us around like c**ts however slowly the tides are turning and we should be bearing the fruits of our efforts very soon

 

- We been working on an project that could potentially change the advertising industry as we know it, watch this space

Running your own business in the city is mad, thoroughly enjoying it.

 

good look bro!

 

can you shed some light on the project you're working on re the advertising industry? I'm intrigued as I work in that industry too, may not be relevant to me though as it's such a large industry but still

 

 

Cant really speak about it as the guy that came up with the ideal/concept slapped me with an NDA

 

Hes so convinced that its the next big thing that hes going crazy losing sleep thinking about getting it done. Fair play to him though I think he may have something 

 

All I can say is it involves both the Advertising and Gaming industries 

[Mame Biram Diouf]

Fair play if he can take the share from programmatic advertising and apple wallets advertising which are both expected to cause the end of normal ads

[Em Dott]

I respect the hustle

Do the damn thing bro

[TF S4DK]

Props.

I do feel like you advertising mofos on here (the pros not the pyramid man dem) don't shed me no light on how to get my cars more popping however.

[Badman]

Hmmm interesting point,

 

However, it all depends on what your marketing budget is saying 

[TF S4DK]

Well ContractHire&Leasing want £1800 of me for 3 months, the deal breaker for me is them wanting the 3 months as a lump. Rather than 6 bills a month from the start. Tie in's like that make me think it isn't as rewarding as they claim.

And as much as they saying people have changed their act I still see how we say, some creative numbers.

Big move G. Hope it pops off.

My boy works in advertising, I have no idea hat he does, went to the website of his company, no idea what they do. You man always talk in riddles?

Yep thats they (used to be we) charge clients so much

 

Why not

 

Every industry has their fuckery jargon 

[TF S4DK]

Ain't even just jargon, most industries get simpler but advertising use to be simple and is now more complex and more layered.

Before you rang up a number, decide on ad spot, book, pay... Wait and watch the results...

Now well it's just seems complicated and everything is a "campaign"

[Wavant]

Well done Badman.

[Mizchif]

Congratulations!

 

Advertising is such a rapidly developing industry well done for carving out a space for yourself

[QPR Dee]

anyway

 

advertising does seem to be popping

 

im guessing its mainly its mainly online stuff now? SEO and that
