GORILA A R E M A R K A B L E J O U R N E Y NOUS WAKONTÉ When we think about people, brands, events, companies and churches, we think about beautiful stories; we think about the entrepreneur who had no dreams of being an entrepreneur but became one because of circumstance. We think about the dancer who was told that her skin was too dark for her to ever make her mark, we think of the 36 year old fighter whose mother was told that he would never get to enjoy anything beyond 36 hours of breath. These stories inspire, add value and make the world a little better and so deserve to be shared. To fully capture these stories we’ve taken the concept of the Caribbean branding firm a step further by going beyond the traditional provisions of corporate identity design, web design, photography & videography digital and social media marketing strategy. We’ve learnt to bring all of those elements together in a model cocktail which tells beautiful and seamless stories. Whenever we’re given the honor of helping an artist, church, entrepreneur or company craft and share a story we treat it not differently from how a bestselling author would treat the prospect of writing his next best selling novel. We come up with an idea, we flesh out characters and we decide on scenes and plots. We identify points of conflict and find resolutions for them. We use all of these elements to give the target audience a beautiful climax and when this is all said and done we share and celebrate Wakonté style with a drink: tea, coffee or wine. J O I N U S O N A R E M A R K A B L E J O U R N E Y YOU ARE INVITED Dear Prospective Client, It’s funny. I know. You’re considering hiring us to help you tell your story yet we’re extending an invitation to you.

It has to have emotional content and all the themes of a great story: mystery, magic, adventure, intrigue, conflicts, contradiction, paradox. - Deepak Chopra
