Brands and institutions seeking reliable, market-attuned social media management across Niger and Guinea-Bissau can rely on korhogoagency.com to translate ambition into measurable outcomes. We combine on-the-ground cultural awareness with platform expertise, crafting a seamless social presence that speaks the languages people actually use—Hausa and Zarma in Niamey and Zinder, French for business audiences across Niger, Portuguese and Kriol in Bissau and the Bijagós, and a mix of English and French for diaspora communities. Our approach blends data, creativity, and field-tested processes to help you win attention, trust, and customers—sustainably and at scale.
Regional understanding that turns attention into value
Operating in both Niger and Guinea-Bissau requires sensitivity to connectivity constraints, diverse languages, and the rhythms of everyday life. korhogoagency.com plans around bandwidth realities and device diversity, producing content that loads quickly, looks great on mobile, and fits how people actually browse: night-time browsing in Niamey after work or school, lunchtime check-ins in Bissau’s downtown, and weekend peaks when families gather and share content via WhatsApp. We calibrate content to the cultural calendar—Ramadan and Tabaski, Niger’s Independence Day on August 3 and Republic Day on December 18, Guinea-Bissau’s Carnaval and Independence Day on September 24, and regional festivals like Cure Salée—so your brand appears at meaningful moments, not just in ad slots.
Equally important is linguistic nuance. We write, design, and moderate in French, Hausa, Zarma, Fulfulde, Tamasheq, Portuguese, and Kriol when needed, with governance rules ensuring accuracy and consistency across languages. Whether you are a telecom seeking prepaid bundle uptake in Maradi and Diffa, a development program driving health behaviors in Bafatá, or a consumer brand launching in Niamey supermarkets, our localized playbooks ensure content and community interactions feel native, not translated. This is how we transform reach into trust—and trust into sustainable growth.
Platforms that matter and the people who use them
People across both countries live on mobile-first platforms. We focus your investment where attention already flows:
- Facebook and Instagram for broad reach, product discovery, and short-form video; Reels for quick education and entertainment.
- WhatsApp for Business as the heart of social commerce and service, from broadcast lists and click-to-chat ads to order-taking and appointment scheduling.
- TikTok for culture-led storytelling, youth communities, and creator collaborations in Niamey, Zinder, Bissau, and the diaspora.
- YouTube for educational content, music and entertainment partnerships, and longer explainers when bandwidth allows.
- X (Twitter) and LinkedIn for policy, media, and business circles—particularly relevant to NGOs, public sector, and B2B services.
We segment audiences by city, language, device, and data sensitivity. For low-bandwidth regions, we ship ultra-light creatives (compressed video, adaptive imagery, audiograms) and prioritize fast-loading landing experiences, often bypassing websites with WhatsApp deep links or native lead forms. For diaspora segments in Dakar, Abidjan, Lisbon, and Paris, we adapt visual style and calls to action accordingly—driving remittance-linked promotions, tourism to Bijagós, or alumni participation in civic programs.
Our editorial calendars blend everyday utility (how to use your product, where to buy, how to save data) with cultural content (music, sports, local heroes, market life), and social proof (customer stories, micro-influencers, merchant features). The result is consistent engagement that feels human and accumulates goodwill month after month.
What korhogoagency.com delivers
Market research and channel architecture
We start with listening: platform audits, competitor mapping in Niamey, Maradi, Zinder, and Bissau, sentiment analysis in French, Hausa, Zarma, Portuguese, and Kriol, and a data-light stakeholder survey if needed. We then design your channel architecture: which platforms, what role, which KPIs, how they complement each other, and how to route leads (WhatsApp vs. landing pages vs. call centers). This is the backbone of your social media strategy.
Creative and content production
- Mobile-first content templates, brand-aligned and language-specific.
- Short-form videos (vertical), micro-documentaries, audio capsules for radio-to-social workflows.
- Product explainers, FAQ carousels, myth-busting for social programs, and shop stories.
- Field shoots in Niamey and Bissau with local photographers and creators, plus remote production where travel is constrained.
We maintain a unified brand system while adapting tone and visuals per audience segment, ensuring strong recall without sameness. This is our craft of actionable localization.
Community management and social care
We deliver bilingual and trilingual moderation calendars, 7-day coverage windows for priority campaigns, and escalation protocols for sensitive issues. We implement WhatsApp Business workflows so inquiries become orders or appointments, with consistent SLAs and response scripts. The goal: a welcoming, informed community that gets answers quickly and feels valued.
Paid media and optimization
- Full-funnel media planning across Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and Google properties, with country-specific measurement plans.
- Click-to-WhatsApp and lead objective campaigns for frictionless conversion.
- Creative testing at the edge: hooks, captions, languages, thumbnail variants designed for low data loads.
- Budget allocation that reflects real-time results and availability of inventory in Niger and Guinea-Bissau.
Our media buying is tied to a rigorous optimization cadence and weekly reviews focused on signals that matter: net-new leads, quality conversations, cost per acquired customer, and assisted sales.
Influencer partnerships
We curate micro-creators and community figures: musicians from Niamey’s music scene, sports voices in Bissau, market vendors, educators, radio presenters. Instead of one-off posts, we structure seasonal ambassador programs with brand-safe scripts, usage rights, and post-campaign learnings.
Data, reporting, and decision support
We integrate platform insights, server-side tracking where feasible, WhatsApp conversation tags, UTM frameworks, and phone-based follow-ups for low-digital journeys. Dashboards reflect both online signals and offline business outcomes—stock-outs at a partner shop, NGO session attendance, or call-center closures—so decisions are grounded in reality, not vanity metrics. This is actionable analytics powering better performance.
Reputation and crisis readiness
We monitor for misinformation, handle rumor control with pre-approved responses, and coordinate with your legal/PR teams. Clear playbooks and scenario drills keep teams aligned during pressure moments—policy debates, service interruptions, or regional events.
Enablement and training
We upskill client teams with workshops: social writing in Hausa/Zarma and Kriol/Portuguese, visual storytelling with a smartphone, WhatsApp Business best practices, and data literacy for social leads. We also produce social governance handbooks that endure beyond a single campaign.

Time zones are no obstacle. Our teams operate on West Africa Time (UTC+1) and GMT (UTC+0), aligning content approvals and moderation windows to local patterns.
Creative approach grounded in culture
We don’t import generic aesthetics. Visual language draws from Sahel palettes, market scenes, island life in Bijagós, and urban textures from Niamey to Bissau. Typography choices respect legibility on small screens and in bright daylight. Audio cues and voice-overs are tailored to local accents; captions are designed for silent autoplay. Here’s how that translates in practice:
- Retail: promo Reels in French/Hausa with price tags large enough for quick capture, paired with store-locator stories and WhatsApp order buttons.
- NGO health: myth-busting carousels in Portuguese/Kriol, radio snippets repurposed as audiograms, and WhatsApp micro-coaching cohorts.
- Education: short explainers in Zarma or Fulfulde, campus tours, alumni spotlights, and scholarship deadlines with countdown stickers.
- Tourism: TikTok edits featuring Bissau nightlife and Bijagós nature, plus long-form YouTube guides for trip planning.
- Telecom/Fintech: bundle calculators, payment walk-throughs, agent network highlights, and data-saving tips in carousel and story formats.
Every asset is built with a clear job to do—inform, persuade, or convert—and a matching measurement plan.
Measurement that respects real-world conditions
In markets where pixel data can be patchy and last-click unhelpful, we triangulate. We mix platform metrics with WhatsApp conversation labels, coupon codes for offline redemption, call tracking, and short phone surveys to estimate incremental lift. A typical KPI set might include:
- Attention: reach, frequency, thumb-stop rate, video completion.
- Action: click-to-WhatsApp rate, qualified lead rate, call-back success, store visits tracked via unique codes.
- Value: average order size, repeat purchase or program adherence, customer service resolution time.
- Health: sentiment, response time, share of voice versus key competitors.
Monthly reporting highlights what to scale and what to retire, with recommendations prioritized by effort versus impact. Over time, your social channels become a dependable engine for demand and service, not just a billboard.
Sectors we serve in Niger and Guinea-Bissau

Local partnerships and creators
We maintain a living roster of voices who move culture and commerce: griots and musicians, radio hosts, sports figures, market traders with loyal followings, educators, and niche tech creators. We shape programs that respect community norms, clarify incentives, and build long-term relationships rather than one-shot endorsements. All partnerships come with guardrails for brand safety and clear content usage rights.
Risk management and governance
korhogoagency.com embeds a pragmatic risk framework into every engagement:
- Policy and platform compliance: up-to-date ad policies, disclaimers in the right languages, and review flows for sensitive content.
- Scenario planning: service outage statements, misinformation rebuttals, and escalation paths to legal/PR.
- Security: role-based access, 2FA hygiene, and asset backups; creator contracts with usage and take-down clauses.
- Civic sensitivity: content pacing during elections or sensitive events, neutrality where required, and coordination with stakeholders.
This governance backbone keeps your brand resilient, even when news cycles get noisy.
How we use WhatsApp to power the full funnel
In both Niger and Guinea-Bissau, WhatsApp is where decisions get made. We turn it into a lightweight CRM: click-to-chat ads with prefilled prompts, quick replies for product info, catalogs for simple ordering, and handoffs to call centers or field agents. Conversation tags and basic sales scripts let us see which messages drive action, so we refine creative and targeting based on real dialogue, not assumptions. The result is a measurable bridge between content and commerce.
