“BlueSense led an in-depth growth session with our executive team to identify practical and high-potential growth drivers for our start-up. Our team was impressed by the frameworks and recommendations and still refers to them today when crafting strategy. BlueSense is insightful and collaborative and I would highly recommend working with them.

“We’ve had over 5 learning + advisory sessions with BlueSense and each time, my team and I leave with a renewed sense of purpose and clarity. Most recently, we had a eureka moment during a leadership session with BlueSense that changed our mission and the trajectory of our company for the better. They’re exceptional with their work.

“Academic researchers looking to study management issues in Nigeria often struggle to find credible research partners. However, BlueSense was instrumental in managing a research project focused on client interactions in the banking industry. Everything was coordinated professionally without me having to physically be present in Nigeria. I was happy with quality of the results and look forward to partnering with them again for future projects.

Case studies
Hash Vest is a US based fintech that allows immigrant communities in the US, invest in their local stock market back in their home countries. In July 2021, we started developing a Go-to-Market strategy for a fintech looking to set-up operations in the US. Our approach was firstly to understand what the company was trying to achieve. Once we understood the vision, we then developed an action plan that we collectively agreed on would help the company attain set vision.
We researched market clusters to understand the communities would majorly reside; our research helped us understand what State or City, Indian immigrants for example, lived. Their occupation of choice, the average household income, buying power, and major clusters.
For the route-to-market, we conducted a market analysis (what does the market look like) to understand the user needs, market dynamics, client capabilities, competitors + possible partners. Market segmentation + selection (whom do we go after and how), allowed us understand how to target + segment the market-base. Our marketing mix study (what do we sell and where do we sell) helped us understand how to best price + promote the platform. User acquisition (how do we gain and retain customer) helped us understand potential user awareness, interest, evaluation + commitment to the product. All of this allowed us develop a strategy deck that helped the company add 100K users to their platform in the first 90days.
We added ₦100M value to the company’s bottomline.
MVX is a platform that allows users hire vessels, barges + ships for long term use / the transportation of cargo across Atlantic waters. In June 2021 we spoke with the leadership at MVX. We had to sit-down with each executive to figure out what their pressing challenges were. We also spoke with a few of their teammates to see how they navigate their roles + what challenges they had to deal with on a day-to-day. This helped us take a closer look at the situation + develop a leadership curriculum for the organisation.
We led an intensive leadership workshop for the company that allowed us showcase leading research in the leadership space + also illustrate our findings on the best solves for the challenges they were dealing with on a day-to-day. After the workshop we had a group case for the leadership to solve collectively. Since our workshop, staff retention at the company has grown by 17%, employee engagement has also grown to 85%. The leadership also work better, collaboratively + have better insights into their respective teams.
We added ₦5M value to the company’s bottomline.
In March 2017 we started a project for a company that needed to setup operations in Nigeria. The essence of the company was to build a data-entry centre in Nigeria for US large wholesalers. We mapped out a strategy for the company and built a business plan to help develop systems of operation. By August 2017, we had run assessment centres for over 300 qualified candidates and picked out about 20 candidates to setup the founding team.
We started with a skeletal office in Ibadan of 5 data-entry staff. Setting up infrastructure for 24/7 fibre internet, 24/7 power, managed budgets, forecasts, US clients’ expectations, hired, oriented, trained + trimmed team to help the business thrive. By August 2019, we had grown the team from 0 to 60 people with 15 virtual staff, 45 Ibadan staff + 10 Lagos staff. As at December 2020, the company had grown 200 staff strong with a country manager, C-Suite executives + an Executive board + an Advisory board.
We added ₦250M value to the company’s bottomline.
