makuhwa What is Zim Celebs instagram page all about?

[Borrowdale Barron]

What's the essence of the Zim Celebs Instagram page? Is it all about labrish with a concept derived from other Instagram blogs like The Shade Room, Baller Alert, Hollywood Unlocked, etc?

 

[Scorpio]

Zim celebs Instagram stories and posts range from:

• Zim celebrity gossip news.
• Zim music industry latest releases and promotions.
• Zim news and current affairs.

What's their business model then?

What's their business model then?

To sell advertising like the rest of Instagram celebrities blogs through the promotion of corporate brands and individual Zimbabwe celebrity brands.

But how is that a sustainable business model in Zimbabwe because things are tight with the way Zimbabwe's economy is currently performing.

It's mostly an Ad-driven business.

But alternatively, people can just opt to bypass all that Zim celebs promo and pay for advertising directly to Instagram via Facebook.

Better yet they can implement a Facebook pixel to narrow down their audience target.

In reality, it's not all Zim celebrities who are that tech-savvy since many can't even afford to hire professional publicists and a dedicated marketing team.

Additionally, do you honestly think the average Zimdancehall artist knows what a Facebook Pixel or Twitter Pixel is?

Let alone have a sound understanding of digital retargeting marketing campaigns.

It's almost 2020 and if you don't have an online business presence by now what the hell are you doing then.

Your problem is you aren't taking into consideration the financial conditions some Zimdancehall artists and the rest of them Zim socialites are born into.

Are you saying paying for advertising to Instagram directly will be cheaper and more rewarding than to pay for promos to Zim celebs?

It doesn't necessarily work like that because it comes down to where are your customers and their demographics. A Facebook pixel shows you all that. I really doubt if Zim celebs have that data unless their Instagram account itself has been converted to an Instagram Business account for the purpose of showing "Instagram Insights" which they will be able to see even via Facebook Creator Studio.

Why would you pay for advertising not knowing the demographics and impressions of where you wanna put your ads? The most important thing is the conversion!

Don't they leverage their Advertising rates based on the followers they have like The Shade Room and Baller Alert?

Of course, they do but I was just highlighting other alternatives that may be useful to some people!

True. You have got many Zim artists that have been on record for struggling to meet their monthly court-ordered child maintenance (or child support payments) now let alone ask them to have their own reasonable marketing budget?

It won't add up. Things are very tight in Zim.

Many child support payments court orders in Zim don't exceed thousands of dollars every month as you might think.

I have never understood why a child needs $5,000 to $10,000 USD a month like they do in most Western countries.

Agreed because I also don't see why any small child will ever need that much money especially babies who can't even walk.

Court rulings should make it by default to make sure it is both parents' responsibility to chip in. No wonder why some men end up being behind in child support payments in the diaspora.

Y'all need to understand how child maintenance payments work because the child is entitled to a good lifestyle after making an assessment of both parents' capabilities.

The judges who deal with child support cases may grant huge sums of money that can seem large to many people because a child regardless of age in most countries stands to gain at least 20% of each parent's income.

Still, it's very rare for most men to even receive custody of the child and in many cases, men usually end up having to dole out more money compared to the baby mama who probably spends most of it on beauty products and herself.

The little money left going to the child of course.
