Maijaliina Hansen describes her dreams for her time at Quirk “like a blossoming flower: yesterday, today and tomorrow”. She received her post-graduate degree in Marketing at UCT in 2008 and looks forward to the future of her career – but for now it’s all about conquering the Quirk from BrandsEye up.
An ideal day for Maijaliina would start with a cappuccino in bed, a 10 am massage followed by lunch at Tokara in Stellenbosch, and finally an afternoon nap in the sun – Maijaliina even has her favourite wines picked out; Fat Bastard Chardonnay by day and Diemersfontein Pinotage by night.
An affinity for shoes (‘OMG, shoes’) and a devotion to decadence, the nicked-named Madam Aswell (the South African version of Mademoiselle) notes her greatest extravagance as a stay at the Hotel Napoleon in Paris, overlooking the Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower.
“Don’t be scared; just be prepared for the worst.” - Maijaliina Hansen

"Everything you ever wanted to know about eMarketing but were afraid to ask - really! This was a seriously good workshop for anyone from the sole trader with their own website to the eMarketing director of a large company. I am not that technical but Rob has that rare ability to explain technical (ie: difficult!) issues in very simple terms. I got an enormous amount from this highly interactive one day workshop." - Ian F, Kensington Enterprises
