Esther Omemu
Design Associate @ Hera Marketing
Writing for TwoCents has been like finding my people—a place where sharing my thoughts actually matters! Not only do I get to dive deep into topics I'm passionate about, but I also get real support from readers through tips and subscriptions.
Plus, the connections I've made with other African creators are incredible. It's not just a place to publish; it's a community where your voice can actually make waves (and earn a few coins while you're at it!). TwoCents has turned my random musings into meaningful conversations
Anita Koske
English Language Teacher/Assistant @ Academie de Versailles
My best friend introduced me to TwoCents, and I remember chatting with Tobi and think how brilliant the platform is!
More than two years later, I still feel the same, the space offers more than just nuggets of wisdom here and there, you can get inspired and even channel your creativity in a great way. There's so much TwoCents has to offer and I can't wait to see what it blossoms into🌸

Top answers from some of our sessions.
The itching is as a result of the absence of moisture in the skin. I would recommend you use body butter (cocoa butter, mango butter. Shea butter or any body butter of your choice . For moisturizer, it should be a non-greasy moisturizer. I would also advice you see a dermatologist if the body butter does not help with the dryness or stop the itching.

I think the first question should be: does this problem actually need ML?

I've known I wanted to go to Stanford since I was 11 years old when I read a book that said something like "having a degree from Stanford University is a big deal." From then on I had an almost problematic obsession with doing well in everything so that I would be admitted.Because I knew I wanted to go there, I worked really hard in high school to stand out from my classmates.
I went to a moderately wealthy high school, and competing academically and socially with people that have access to generational wealth takes strategy. I chose to take on 2-3 extracurriculars each year. Freshman year I was the president of the freshman class and captain of the freshman basketball team and played volleyball, Sophomore year I was a chair in the same student government, on varsity basketball and JV volleyball, and participated in the competitive mathematics club. Junior year I cranked up the AP courses, taking essentially everything AP, still playing on Varsity Basketball and Volleyball. Senior year I was captain of the Basketball team along with my other extracurriculars and APs.
There probably were other things, as this was over a decade ago. In terms of academic performance, I was ranked #8 in my class upon graduation with above a 4.8 GPA.Even though I had a strong record, I was still nervous to apply, and so I decided to apply to the Restrictive Early Action round, which means you cannot apply early to any other school, although you are not forced to attend upon acceptance. Luckily I was accepted, and decided to not apply to any other school
While I put myself in a good position to be accepted, nobody else at my school was, including those that had better academic records than me. This could be because of my application essay, in which I told the story of why I have 9 siblings in my family and how that has helped me grow as a person. I think the academic performance and the uniqueness of my story were helpful in standing out from the crowd of perfect transcripts.

Hi Daniel, I think for this you just need to put yourself out there. Write more, put your writing online, on Medium, LinkedIn, even Twitter. Work towards becoming a contributor on platforms that are aligned with your style of writing. Build the right connections by going to writers workshops, interacting with the right people online, etc. Also, it sounds random, but make it clear you are a writer, use your bios wisely. At the end of the day, you want people to search your name and see your writing skills.

Find a problem worth solving around you, solve it and make a business out of it.
Dr. Stephen Oluwatobi
Founder @ Pertinence Group & Edustart
Sir Toby, great to read from you. Your wonderful well coined words say more. With all honesty, as the saying goes: everyone, everything have its place in this world we live in.I personally mostly bring back my momentum by listening to motivational speakers. I will say, Entrepreneurs should be very INTENTIONAL in every action taken both for life and for business. Listening to a motivational speaker doesn't help you solve the hard problems before you. They MOTIVATE you to hold on, think harder, ask if need be and keep pushing upward. Entrepreneurs, don't allow everyone be your cup of tea. As you pipe up or down you client search, so should you pipe down the motivations you listen to daily.
Dr. Mofor Clementine Cendoh
Personal Brand Therapist | Bus Consultant | Relationship Counsellor | Content Creator @ NEST Consolidated
I think it is very important for brands to reflect their target audience. This is the time of being 'WOKE' but it must be done right. Compare Gillette's advert We Believe: The Best Men Can Be and Nike's advert with Colin Kaepernick. Gillette's advert didn't do well because people could into just buy into their message. Brand Managers needs to start considering cause marketing but need to be mindful it may back fires BUT they should always remember there was a motivation for doing it. Brand Managers could definitely use it to engage and connect with their audience. The audience sees the brands on their side, feel emotionally connected and willing to patronise.

Hello Temiloluwa, I thin you can start with your personal brand - start to build your own brand, do some research and reading, and gain an understanding of social media on your own. I think you should also aim to work at an agency, just to gain as much experience as possible from as many experts and creatives as possible. I always mention Wild Fusions and Anakle - they are two places to gain knowledge from a digital marketing standpoint. I am sure there are a whole lot of other digital agencies that you can get great experience from, but definitely try to start off in an agency.
