Business Model
Since the Inception of Zamstars on November 22nd 2013, the only business model that was rigorously implemented was that of being “Outcome Driven”. The company generates its revenue with the services offered to the clients which range from deploying digital marketing tools to generate leads and sales to market research to marking social media presence to ATL/BTL activities to events, and the list continues. Whatever it takes for a brand to grow, we suggest the same to our clients and get them implemented.

We focus on passionate execution and tracking outcomes based on metrics. While most agencies only promise to deliver, we deliver the promises made while we bring clients on-board. The performance of the brand and our passion is monitored on a daily basis using tools that were conceptualised in-house like Zamalytics, ZamMP and S3.
