THE PROBLEM

An influencer helping MENA students study abroad in Poland with no real brand behind him.

INITIAL OBSERVATIONS

Estudy had momentum. The founder's content was pulling in students every semester. But the brand was built on the founder presence not on the business itself.

1. A weak identity built on imitation

Logo, colors, messaging all borrowed from what competitors were doing

2. An influencer, not a brand

The founder's personal content drove all the trust. If he stopped posting, the brand would disappear.

Competitors treating students like transactions

Every agency ran the same playbook. eStudy was different but the brand didn't show it.

The Direction

Building a brand

Premium. High-end enough to signal credibility. Warm enough to feel like someone who cares about your first week in a foreign country.

A brand that says: we take a limited number of students, and we take care of every one of them.

Content & Media

Content calendar. Scripts for the founder's reels. Social presence managed end to end not just how it looks, but how it sounds, how it posts, how it shows up every week delivering 30+ Reels & 15+ Carousels.
