What this workflow connects

Philia can ship more than a brochure. It can build the product layer that runs the workflow.

Payments can sit inside the customer journey instead of relying on manual follow-up.

Operators get visibility after the sale instead of losing signal inside chat threads.

Business systems · Sectors we serve

Five sectors, grounded in current work.

These are current client and product deployments, not a claim of ownership of the businesses themselves. Each system is shaped around its own customer journey and operating needs.

Marketing & Media

Create the message. Explore where it travels.

Marketing video production and route-based transit advertising are connected parts of a campaign, with distinct showcases. Our screen-advertising work is still in early trial.

Marketing video production

Intelligent tools support our creative process, with human-led direction and review. We make product explainers and promotional content for social channels and screen placements.

MatMarket promotional video · 42 seconds · includes audio and on-screen text. Pricing and playback commitments shown are approved for the current trial; passenger-view figures are estimates.
About this video

The video introduces MatMarket using Nairobi street and matatu footage, promotional creative examples, and the campaign website. It shows route-based advertising and trial packages, including Route Starter at KES 5,000 per week and 40 guaranteed plays per day per matatu. These pricing and playback commitments are current and approved for the trial. Passenger-view figures shown are estimates, not verified audience measurements. Contact us to confirm placement availability on the Makongeni, Thika–Nairobi CBD corridor.

Prepare and schedule

Review delivery

Use recorded playback to review delivery, without equating plays to passenger views or conversions.

Marketing video production can be commissioned independently. MatMarket screen placements are a separate early-trial service, with availability and pricing confirmed individually. The five established business sectors above remain separate from this pilot.
