Unique Selling Proposition / Competitive Advantage:
We're boutique, so turnarounds are quick; no red tape and traffic departments etc. We don't take on more than we can handle from a capacity point of view. We don't want to employ more staff, so if our team is at capacity, we graciously decline the work.
While we work with freelancers, we'd never fully outsource the job - quality control is critical.
We build our long-lasting relationships with the attention and excellence we give our clients.
We're also renowned for finding proactive, strategically sound opportunities for our clients.
We spend a lot of time educating the marketplace about PR and marketing. Through thought leadership, white papers and social media content, Brandfundi aims to share its knowledge with the market and shed light on a largely misunderstood industry. The owner, Michelle Cavé, is a competitive achiever who is highly results- and action-oriented. She has a well-developed sense of responsibility and professionalism. Her ambition, drive and adaptability to various business needs and challenges ensure that she gets things done without losing sight of the big picture. She values achievement, and as a result, efficiency, impact and reputation are crucial to her. Being highly focused on making tangible progress keeps her focused and motivated. Furthermore, she prides herself on having integrity and being honest and receptive.
