Hello everyone! If you're like
me, you're probably wondering where the weekend went? I mean, it was just
Friday yesterday. Anyway, another Monday is upon us and I come bearing good
news ;) We are flipping the script a little today with our MCM who is a brand
strategist and a tech reviewer. His name is Fisayo Fosudo. I'd describe my
interview with him as brilliant and interesting! (It's ironic how he asked me
at the end if he wasn't too boring LOL) Enjoy!
Fisayo Fosudo
1) You
have a YouTube channel where you talk about tech inclined topics; why that
niche?
FISAYO: Tech is a very fast
evolving niche and it's surely going to shape our future in many ways. I
started developing passion for this since I started out as a graphic designer
and a lot of design/art work has moved beyond pencils and sketch books to
tablets and styli. I'm focused on tech (consumer tech specifically) because
it's the closest/most accessible base to everyone and I really look forward to
influencing a larger percentage of consumer tech purchase decisions in Africa
and beyond.
2) What's the most valuable lesson you've learnt from having a YouTube channel?
FISAYO: Quality matters! Here's
my not so short explanation for this: before I started uploading YouTube
videos, I watched a ton of videos. I'm the kind of buyer that watches like 20
video reviews and read 100 blog posts about a product before I spend my money.
9/10 times a quality review video helps me make my decision. It was this reason
I decided to invest almost $6,000 from my savings in production gear to create
quality and thoughtful content. I'm still just starting out so I have a long
way to go.
3) What's your typical day
like?
FISAYO: Lol, I don't have
a typical day. Everyday is a different creation of it's own. However, every day
starts with a prayer and then listening to a lot of House/EDM music while
creating graphic design concepts or reading a book.
4) Tell us one thing you'll
really like to do but haven't done yet?
FISAYO: I'll really like to
create beautiful Cinematic travel videos (or memories) like Jordan Taylor
Wright and Sam Kolder. These guys really inspire me a lot and I look forward to
perfecting my skills to this point and beyond. As a side project, I also enjoy
tinkering with creating EDM music too with FL Studio.
5) It's Monday, tell
us some people you currently look up to and why?
FISAYO: Apart from the
aforementioned, I really look up to Marques Brownlee (MKBHD). He's also a tech
reviewer and is the best at what he does.
I hope I wasn't too boring 😂
Stay Inspired.
