6. Much Learned

 

Carrying on from the last blog, unfortunately our client could no longer carry on with the league and we had to shut it down but I really do miss those days and the friendships we created. A lot of those people went back to where they came from, joined their families and hopefully found more opportunity afterwards. god bless them all.

 

Which leads me to another exciting project to work on. This time we were tasked with opening a 24 hour gambling channel on Openview Satellite TV. This channel was used mainly as a marketing tool to bring the brand to more people and what better way than to millions of people that have bought the Openview platform.

We found a studio, organised crew in record time, and hit the ground running. We had no real idea of how we were going to fill 24 hours everyday of content. What did the viewers want to see, how could we make it entertaining still to viewers. So we went with some online gaming that tied into their website and started to educate people on how to play the games they were offering. We also added a sports show that would inform the viewers on team news that could affect bets in anyway. We added a WhatsApp interactive line that could go out on air and we received numerous amounts of questions that could be answered and our aim was to create some interactivity with the clients customers.

 

We learnt so much from this project, which ran just short of a  year, and we managed to ourselves on air within a week or so. Unbelievable that we managed to get it on air in time and that we managed to gain the viewers we did. We all just jumped in and got things done, regardless of our experience level or position and working on these, and more projects, allowed me to gain so much knowledge that I will always keep with me, leading to the next part of the blog.
