There are seasons when life stops whispering and starts instructing loudly, clearly, and without apology. The past few weeks have been one of those seasons for me. A season where purpose has refused to stay in the background and has instead demanded attention, discipline, and growth. This is Purpose Under Pressure! As I’ve moved between writing books, shaping digital strategies, drafting proposals, and building systems meant to outlive me, one truth has risen to the surface: purpose is not always gentle. Purpose is formative. It stretches, presses, and matures you. And if you are not careful, you may mistake pressure for punishment, when in reality it is preparation. This is…

#UgBlogWeek Day 2: Why I Stopped Watching Tv
Its 6:45am, I am struggling to talk to God. I am cramping, it is not helping my cause. I whisper a silent prayer and open my phone to get to my Bible app but I end up on Facebook, and as I scroll through it, I find a post by a ’friend’ (we all know Facebook lies about this friendship thing) complaining about the Desire Luzinda’s Faco video advert on his wall. This friend of mine is not a supporter of feminist, so I was shocked when he posted that he will agree when them (feminist) attacked Desire and FACO for the message their portrayed in their advert. Though, he…

After #UgBlogWeek, (still reading and re-visiting those beautiful blogs) I was asked if Facebook can be used as a blogging platform and if so how can one do it.

Why Social Media Marketing? #SMUg14
This is an article I wrote about the need for social media marketing in regard to the Social Media Summit in Uganda for East Africa Business Week that came out yesterday. This post is for those who missed the article in print media.

And there is no hesitation from me telling them to stop hiding behind the invisible cloak of wonder and join the…

Social Media is Word of Mouth Marketing. As Simple as That.
I agree with this blog, Social Media is telling your friends about the different things you are doing. The different products you are experimenting on, using and about to buy. It is the cheapest advertising tool there has ever been.

Self Branding; Your Name is Your Brand.
When I was growing up, my father used to say that a name was the most important thing in a society. I now agree with him, your name is your brand, it speaks values for you before anyone sees you. “You are your own brand” I always say. My brand is PKahill, it speaks for me and I add value it. It is talked about, judged, tested, measured and documented every day; with all that I have learnt to nurture, care, cultivate and promote it. Before I learnt what self branding meant, I used to use a lot of names online on different blog platforms that now am faced with plagiarism.…

What is your Brand Site or Landing Page Saying?
“Hello, I am a landing page. My job is to greet you when you click on ads, email links and social media posts. You can find me by scanning a QR code also. You come to me because you want something.

I want you to know you are in the right place and I have an answer for you. Your search has not been in vain. I want you to trust me. I want you to know that others have been…
