Our Story
We are on a mission to show our creativity to the world
Believe it or not, our story begins in a top engineering firm 10 years ago in Nairobi, the heart of Kenya. Steve, our founder, realized that the firm was not utilizing social media to connect and engage directly with their target audience, and the marketing team would report weekly on their performance but had no proper way of tracking their reach, impressions, and conversions. This did not sit well with him. He proposed a social media campaign for one of their products as a test which in turn resulted in a 60% revenue growth in 3 months. Before long, he started CHARLESON® Creative in January 2015 to put businesses on the map, build customer loyalty, and proliferate sales through creative marketing strategies.
9 years later, CHARLESON® Creative is Africa’s top 360 creative marketing and communications agency based in Kenya. We are fierce. We are loyal. We have the spirit of a wolf and the soul of a moon.
We are on a mission to show our creativity to the world. We work with challenger brands who are not afraid of communicating differently and challenging the status quo.
