He started his career as a musician, and music producer then as a business owner when he started The Cat Studio. Reuben started doing marketing for himself, learning through trial & error – before helping other businesses.
One of his earliest tactics to market his music school was to print and deliver flyers by hand. Over time, he began to do more advanced marketing.
When he was a music producer, he worked on various projects for brands like Ridsect and History Channel. Some of his work appeared in cinemas and broadcasts.
In 2016, Reuben joined MobileAds.com as a business development lead. Over a tenure of nearly 2 years, he helped the company secure 6-figure advertising campaigns with brands like Nandos, TNB Malaysia, and Proton, by knocking on doors. Those years built up his salesmanship.
Today, he mainly spends his time at Cat Insights, a digital marketing company he set up to help companies grow revenue. As a teacher, he teaches marketing courses at LEAD and Spiccato and has trained companies like MediaPrima Digital, Heineken and Capitaland. Also as head of marketing, he leads marketing for LEAD.
Here’s a short breakdown of what we discussed during the interview about marketing, events, SEO and working with small businesses.
