He emphasized the importance of creating engaging content that resonates with his audience, stating, “I will be sharing narratives and experiences related to the brand, which is now an integral part of my identity.”
Tsabedze also addressed the challenges brands face in the digital landscape. “It is becoming increasingly difficult for brands to get attention on the Internet.
Every business, big or small, has flooded the online space, creating an overwhelming amount of noise,” he explained.
“This saturation has made consumers sceptical about brands that focus heavily on self-promotion. As a result, there’s a growing demand for innovative digital marketing strategies.”
Recognizing this shift, Tsabedze highlighted the rising trend of influencer marketing as an effective solution. “Brands are beginning to appreciate the power of influencers.
This marketing approach is becoming a favourite among digital marketers and business owners,” he noted. He believes that influencers can play a crucial role in bridging the gap between brands and consumers, fostering authenticity and trust in a crowded marketplace.

For Tsabedze, this partnership goes beyond personal achievement; it symbolizes a broader recognition of influencers in Eswatini.
“In our country, we’ve faced challenges in being acknowledged as legitimate influencers,” he shared. “Securing such deals is a significant step forward for me and my peers.
It signifies growth and relevance in the market, allowing us to open doors that have been closed for far too long.”
He added that these collaborations enhance the perceived value of influencers, making them more attractive to other brands and companies.
“Such deals are essential for our growth as influencers and for the brands we represent. They help us establish credibility and create new opportunities in a competitive environment,” Tsabedze stated.
