ABOUT US
Our Mission
Eight Media empowers entrepreneurs across the world in understanding their customers better. We believe that real marketing goes beyond flashy campaigns and likes on social media— true marketing is deeply rooted from knowing your customers’ problems and developing a business that solves that. We believe that every entrepreneur has a chance to succeed, and that success is possible with a data-first mindset.
Our Story
As fellow entrepreneurship graduates at Malayan College Laguna in 2016, Gerald and J observed the dilemmas of small businesses and startups in the Philippines. Despite having great presence locally and internationally, these businesses still suffered slow deaths rooted from their lack of understanding of their customers— being popular does not equal success.
From this observation, Eight Media was born. Its foundation was a culture of data-first methodologies that generated impactful results to businesses— all while maximizing their limited resources.
Meet The Team
Our team comprises of not just designers and writers, but as well as entrepreneurs and data professionals— we believe that this approach can propel businesses to reach their next milestone faster.
