Kelvin became popular when one of he was contracted to brand for the Governor’s Band for the Calabar Festival Organisation. As his popularity grew, so did her followers on social media too. This led to him working with several brands in the media and entertainment world. In November 2020, he granted one of his most famous interview with KBC Africa where he told a story of how he became a “Man Ashawo” of which he commented that it was a Personal Branding Experiment on negative brand reversal.

I’m sure your success has not come easily. What challenges have you had to overcome along the way?

I had to overcome the fear of leaving my comfort zone and that has been the greatest challenge I’ve ever faced in my entire career. While writing my book on Personal Branding and Digital Marketing, the fear of how I’d be perceived by the public kept me off from publishing till 2021 when I told myself that if it goes wrong, I will try again.

Let’s talk about the work you do. What do you specialize in and why should someone work with you over the competition?

I’ve been the brain behind major brands branding in Nigeria and beyond including Miss Africa, Hit FM, FAD Fm, Sparkling FM, Correct FM amongst others and these has given me ample experience above competitions.

What’s your best piece of advice for readers who desire to find success in their life?

Never give up on your dreams, never put money as a motivation in your pursuit for success. Allow your passion to fuel you and watch your baby steps metamorphose into giant strides.

Speaking of success, what does the word mean to you?

For me, Success is making the world a better place. Going out into the world each day and doing the very best you can. Going to bed each night feeling satisfied that you gave it your all

What’s next for you?

I’ll be advocating to African Countries as a matter of urgency to include skills like digital marketing ,branding into secondary & tertiary school curriculum . If the basics of personal branding and the importance of it are inculcated in the minds of young people they will grow up being stronger and better career professionals and business tycoons.
