There’s no doubt that real estate is one growing industry world wide and pulsers are slowly embracing this field and no longer living in fear of “only the rich” can partake in this industry. Many youths are now joining it as brokers, owners and even as property managers.

Our pulse hustler for the day, Kayom Derrick Ozelle is one of those people in the real estate industry as a property manager for Marina Lakeview apartments in Jinja. However his story doesn’t just start at property management, after his Bachelor’s degree in Entrepreneurship and small scale business management, Kayom decided to get into tour and travel by starting a company called Evolution tour and travel. Having grown and studied in Jinja, it was only right that his company focuses on giving their clients the full Jinja experience.

His passion for travel and marketing enabled him to grow his tour business and also interact with many property owners including the owner of Marina Lakeview apartments who provided accommodation for his clients. Along the way, the owner of the property recognized his work ethic and decided to offer him the job to manage the property and since then he has never looked back.

If you’re a regular user of Twitter in Uganda, you have probably come across pictures of the property Kayom manages because he markets it on social media. When we asked him how social media has helped him grow and ease his work he said, “It is through active participation on various social media platforms that Marina Lakeview Apartments has been able to get clients.”

If there’s anything you can learn from Kayom besides marketing your business online it is to embrace and love Uganda. For Kayom specifically, he has great passion for Jinja and it is seen all over his social media and if you are ever planning a trip to Jinja he is one of the best people to talk to, so that you ensure that you have a wonderful experience in Jinja with your friends and family.

As a pulser remember to join the Pulse Nation and Cr8 Yo Bundle in the Pulse App and easily interact with Kayom on his social media incase you’re planning to travel to Jinja.
