The skill of INFLUENCE
Welcome to our podcast, where we explore influencer marketing, focusing on the dentsu School of Influence. In our studio, two influencers and the school's founder discuss its inception, operations, and uniqueness.

The school aims to nurture South Africa's emerging influencers, acknowledging their ability to shape discourse and societal change. The eight-month program intensively develops participants' skills, connections, and mentorship in content creation, brand collaboration, financial management, and legal aspects.
