This message is especially for you if you are a CEO or owner of a big, medium or even small company…
A few years ago, my business started feeling like an uphill battle. Everyday I felt like I was pushing a big boulder up a steep hill. It had lost the sense of discovery and the shine that characterized its early days. It felt like fun was sucked right out of it. Everyday started feeling like an obligation. You and I both know that business should never feel like an obligation, because it’s truly a privilege to serve the world. Something needed to change! Fast!
Until one day… I remembered WHY! I remembered what made me want to stand up in the first place. I’ve always been a believer in ideas …elegant ideas to be precise. History has proven beyond any doubt that only the evolution of elegant ideas is responsible for the advancement of humanity!
A few years ago when I started Mapoko Research International (MRI) I had one mission – to discover and to spread elegant ideas that have the power to push the human race forward. At MRI we believe that content and ideas want to be free therefore we give them away. As a result, what we get paid for is not our content or our ideas but our clinical execution of elegant ideas. But I don’t want to talk about MRI today. However, if you are a corporate CEO or an Executive responsible for Marketing, Corporate Affairs or Human Capital and you’d like to see how we, as MRI, can partner with you to advance your mission please contact me here…

Today I only want to talk about what I stand for…
"Boldness has genius, power and magic in it." - Goethe
What I stand for is the celebration of boldness. And nobody personifies boldness like an entrepreneur who is fired up by a dream and a belief that the future must always be bigger than the present. I have a special love for fellow entrepreneurs because I see them as 3-D printers for ideas – they bring ideas to life in ways that truly advance humanity. I stand for the celebration of entrepreneurs who – even though their efforts may be rewarding them well financially – are still hungry to grow, to reach for the stars and to impact the world.
Therefore to honour these alchemists of ideas, the ones who turn nagging and unrelenting brain waves into tangible reality, I founded…

Our Shared Values
“To me, marketing is about values. This is a very complicated world. It’s a very noisy world. And we’re not going to get a chance to get people to remember much about us. No company is. And so we have to be really clear on what we want them to know about us.” – Steve Jobs
Any honest entrepreneur knows that it’s not only marketing – but all business is about values. Our shared values include:
- Identity: Your true identity in business starts with honestly answering this question, “Who do you truly and deeply want to be a hero to, through your business?” When you decide to defend and protect the interests of your clients with your life is the day your work becomes the true expression of your soul – your true identity.
- Work: Your work is your art. Therefore everything you do for your clients has your invisible signature on it. Always make it a masterpiece.
- Why: Perfection is unattainable, but we should always be driven by ever-growing hunger to pursue mastery and magic!
- Clients: Your clients are your paying audience, and every transaction is an opportunity to perform, to put on a show. Serve them like you are showing off!
- Fees: While your competitors racing each other to the bottom by cutting prices, make sure you produce such amazing creations that your clients always want to pay you premium. Even in a tough economy. Premium clients are affected last and affected least by tough times. You only deserve premium – nothing less!
To accelerate the growth of your business, without stress, you must have a segment of high-end clients and you must have a reliable system to routinely close big business deals. Unfortunately most businesses are lacking in both areas.
If you share these values maybe you are one of us. Let’s connect!
