The beginning of Ad(vertise)me

By Agelos Latsi cofounder of the AdMe Company

Through our experience from Ad Discovery and Creativity Lab class we had the opportunity to learn how to work as a team and assign specific and different tasks to each member.

As far as the missing “puzzle” piece is concerned it is supposed to mean that we, as a team, are going to complete it for them.

Our team consists of 6 members, each of them having specific roles in our advertising startup company. At the beginning of our classes we were 5 members and then an Erasmus student from Turkey started cooperating with us and we were really excited about this new addition.

Let’s introduce our members:

· Aggelos Latsi Finance Manager

I am responsible for the data the company collects and presents the data to the other members in the stage of the decisions. Also he assesses the profitability of the company and product.

· Artemis Logaki Human Resources/PR

With her experience in the promotion and sales field she seeks to understand our clients needs and advise them through their final decisions.

· Eleni Perperidou Creative director

Her main focus is the management of our social media and thus to make our work known to everyone possible. She aspires to come up with branding strategies and ideas to push our startup to new heights.

· Basiliki Tomazou Traffic Manager

She is the reason to why our projects meet the deadline set by the clients. She promotes cooperation within the team and can have much work done by herself.

· Ioulia Ntoka Product Manager & Coordinator

She has experience as a promoter and is in charge of the pricing of the production. She usually takes the initiative to evolve the project. Moreover she finds strategies, ideas and features that match each company and their goals.

· Mustafa Beyazkus International Relations

He is responsible for the company’s international relations department. Introducing the company in the international arena, communicating with, following international laws and regulations

Now, the story behind the name…

First of all, as a team we wanted to find a name that can be representative of our values, our philosophy and our way of working. That’s the reason why we chose the name “AdMe” from Advertise Me in order to emphasize the fact that we are a company which creates awareness of brands, products and services.

After that we left thinking that we also need to find a logo for our company. And after a lot of brainstorming we came up with the idea of “Join us, learn with us and grow from us”.

What’s that supposed to mean? It’s all about the little process behind that.
First you 𝗷𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝘂𝘀, you 𝗮𝗱𝗱 𝘂𝘀.
Then you 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘂𝘀, we will broaden your knowledge explain you everything needed.

Final step; 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘂𝘀. This time the destination will be as interesting as the journey itself; because what’s better than finding out that 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗜𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗰𝗮 is “growth”?

And finally, our hashtag: #AddingtoYou. Our customer’s final destination is growth because throughout the whole journey we are adding to them.

This was our first project as well as our first step to our journey.
