How We Elevated Zamseed’s Social Media Presence (And Why We Parted Ways)

Company:

Zamseed Tanzania

Project:

Social Media Management & Content Creation

Focus Areas:

Brand Awareness, Community Growth, Engagement

Platforms:

Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram

The Challenge

Before partnering with Tanzlite Digital, Zamseed Tanzania had a scattered, inconsistent social media presence. Their profiles were incomplete, lacked a clear voice, and were managed by too many inactive admins. We had to abandon one Facebook page after failing to contact the admin. Their content was more about announcements than conversations, missing the mark on engagement.

They wanted a strong, credible presence that would position them as a leader in Tanzania’s agricultural sector.

    Our Approch

    We focused on building trust, engagement, and brand authority, not just posting for the sake of it. This meant:

    • Strategic Content Creation – We shifted from dry, one-way announcements to engaging, audience-driven content.
    • We sent our photo and video guy to capture famrers stories in te field.
    • Community Building – We grew their online farmers community (Facebook group) from 3,000 to 8,009 members, making it an active knowledge-sharing hub.
    • Consistent Posting & Engagement – Publishing 4-5x per week, balancing educational and promotional content.
    • Page Optimization – Improving social media bios, post structure, and engagement tactics.

    The Success

    🚀 95,940+ people reached across platforms
    🚀 12,289+ direct interactions (likes, shares, comments)
    🚀 Follower Growth:

    • Facebook: From 40 to 1,300
    • LinkedIn: From 0 to 1,219
    • Instagram: From 152 to 804

    🚀 Doubled the online community (FB Group) from 3K to 8K+ members

    Lessons in Collaboration

    While our strategy delivered real, measurable growth, this partnership also reinforced a key lesson:

    Marketing works best when agencies are trusted as strategic partners. Not just vendors executing orders.

    Throughout the engagement, marketing decisions were overly controlled by a rigid, top-down system, prioritizing internal preferences over audience needs. Branding became cluttered, content approval was bureaucratic, and creative decisions were dictated by people far removed from the marketing process.

    This experience clarified the kind of clients we work best with:
    ✅ Businesses that value expert input over excessive internal approvals.
    ✅ Decision-makers who focus on outcomes rather than micromanaging tactics.
    ✅ Companies that see marketing as a growth driver, not just an aesthetic checkbox.

    Final Thought

    We’re proud of the milestones we achieved in this project. The numbers speak for themselves. But great marketing isn’t just about reach and engagement. It’s about working with the right clients, not just for them.

    If you’re looking for an agency that brings strategy, creativity, and measurable growth—not just an extra pair of hands to “post things”—let’s talk.

    What Was the Challenge?

    Before February 2023, the social media pages of AzamPay, AzamPesa and Sarafu faced a challenge common to many Tanzanian brands. They were talking at their audience. The content was directive and PR-ish—”Do this, Our product that.” It left followers as passive recipients of information, resulting in minimal engagement.

    For instance, AzamPesa’s Instagram had over 11K followers but averaged just 20 likes and 3 comments per post.

    The Alchemy (where I stepped in)

    As a Social Media Copywriter and Content Strategist, I suggested a complete content reframing. We shifted the audience from passive observers of our posts to active participants. Here’s what I did:

    •  Created conversational and audience-focused captions.
    • Repositioned product posts to spark dialogue and connection.
    • Collaborated with designers to craft graphics that complemented the new tone.

    The Impact

    AzamPesa’s Instagram engagement saw significant improvement.

    • Average likes grew to 40+ per post.
    • Comments increased to 10+ per post.
    • Organic discussions began to flourish on posts.

    Beyond results, I also learned a few critical lessons about working with content teams—though those remain my trade secret!

    How TWiMMI Leveraged Social Media to Elevate Women in Mining

    Company:

    Tanzania Women in Mining and Mineral Industry (TWiMMI)

    Project:

    Social Media Marketing

    Type:

    Engagement, Awareness, Conversion

    Platforms:

    What Was the Challenge?

    Despite their significant work in empowering women in the mining sector, TWiMMI struggled with visibility. Their online presence didn’t fully reflect their influence, impact, and advocacy efforts. They needed a digital strategy that would elevate their brand, attract the right stakeholders, and position them as industry leaders.

    Our Approach

    Tanzlite Digital developed and executed a trust-led digital marketing strategy, focusing on:
    Positioning TWiMMI as a key player in Tanzania’s mining sector
    Amplifying their advocacy efforts to increase engagement and credibility
    Showcasing their achievements to attract industry players and policymakers
    Enhancing their LinkedIn presence, ensuring thought leadership and visibility

    The Success

    Our collaboration led to significant outcomes, including:
    A Deputy Minister attended a TWiMMI event after seeing their online activities
    The Ministry reposted their content, increasing their credibility
    Participation from five African countries in their events
    High engagement from industry professionals on LinkedIn
    A strong, active LinkedIn presence, securing attention from key stakeholder

     Beyond Social Media

    TWiMMI’s impact has now reached an international stage! They recently represented Tanzania at the Invest in Africa Mining INDABA, one of the continent’s most prestigious mining conferences. This milestone solidifies their role in shaping the future of women in mining—not just in Tanzania, but across Africa.

    Conclusion

    TWiMMI’s journey proves that digital presence isn’t just about being online—it’s about being heard, seen, and taken seriously. By strategically amplifying their voice, Tanzlite Digital helped position them for opportunities that continue to elevate their mission.

    “Tanzlite has relieved the burden off our shoulder by taking over content creation and managing our organization pages. Now we consistently communicate our programs and attract partners and funders for our cause.”
