Founded in 2015 by Jean-Michel KONIN, Aguima Web Agency is an Ivorian consulting agency in web marketing and e-commerce. Aguima’s mission is to provide businesses that are digital or who wish to operate a digital transformation the best tools and web solutions.

 

Introduce yourself and your journey

I am Jean-Michel KONIN, director of the Aguima agency, an agency in web marketing and e-commerce, Google Adwords agency. After studying in France and having worked for almost 10 years in the field of webmarketing and e-commerce, I returned to my country in 2015 to set up agency Aguima. We also launched www.eticketgo.com, which is Côte d’Ivoire’s first online ticketing service.

 

How did you get the idea to start your business?

The idea is part of a simple observation: The web in general and e-commerce arrived in our countries (with Jumia for example). I wanted to participate in this development. So I had the choice to do it as an agency or advertiser. So I decided to make a mix of both: Agency and site editor. This allows me not only to bring my experience to companies but also to improve the lives of Ivorians by offering them concrete web solutions.

 

Can you introduce your team?

My team is composed of 7 people including Accounts Managers, developers, business developers, a CTO (head of the tech division) and a CFO (in charge of finances).

What is the problem solved by Aguima?

My company managed to manage several issues:

  • The creation and optimization of the Seo strategy (natural referencing) for our client Librairie de France in addition to support in launching and monitoring the e-commerce website www.librairiedefrance.net
  • Improved web presence with product focus for our Orange Cote d’Ivoire customer via the Adwords Display
  • Management of application promotion campaigns to boost downloads for our customers Majestic One Ivory Coast, Nsia Bank and Orange Ivory Coast

What are the next steps ?

We have several projects in progress:

  • Strengthening our presence in Côte d’Ivoire
  • International development for the agency
  • Reaching a new milestone for our product www.eticketgo.com with the launch of our talent show nights (Talent Show)
  • The launch of 2 or 3 e-commerce sites

What do you need and how can AfrikaTech help you?

About The Author

CEO AfrikaTech

Comme beaucoup de personnes j’ai connu l’Afrique à travers des stéréotypes : l’Afrique est pauvre, il y a la guerre, famine… Je suis devenu entrepreneur pour briser ces clichés et participer à la construction du continent. J’ai lancé plusieurs entreprises dont Kareea (Formation et développement web), Tutorys (Plate-forme de e-learning), AfrikanFunding (Plate-forme de crowdfunding). Après un échec sur ma startup Tutorys, à cause d’une mauvaise exécution Business, un manque de réseau, pas de mentor, je suis parti 6 mois en immersion dans l’écosystème Tech au Sénégal. J’ai rencontré de nombreux entrepreneurs passionnés, talentueux et déterminés. A mon retour sur Paris je décide de raconter leur histoire en créant le média AfrikaTech. L'objectif est de soutenir les entrepreneurs qui se battent quotidiennement en Afrique en leur offrant la visibilité, les connaissances, le réseautage et les capitaux nécessaires pour réussir. L'Afrique de demain se construit aujourd'hui ensemble. Rejoignez-nous ! LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/boubacardiallo
