What do Tmi Veera Mahlakaarto, Osuuskunta Pahki, and Terwa-akatemia have in common? They are all the reasons why I am an entrepreneur today.
Terwa-Akatemia, which focused on entrepreneurship, was my specialization during my studies, and in the autumn of 2021, I co-founded Cooperative Pahki with my fellow students. Initially, Pahki served as a platform for invoicing, and after a successful start, I also established my own business.
With Pahki, I have engaged in various activities, including:
Customer and market research
Social media Advertisement
B2B-Telemarketing
Event organization
Video subtitling
Product photoshoots
My own business, TMI Veera Mahlakaarto, focuses on Social Media Management. Especially, helping B2C businesses to grow their business with social media. Also, I offer consulting and website development.
I have helped the following businesses:
Restaurants and Cafes
Construction companies
Educational Institutions
Marketing Companies
The rest of my work experience you can find on LinkedIn!
I enjoy sharing my knowledge, whether it's about marketing, entrepreneurship, global mobility, or real estate investing. I firmly believe in giving back, and having received so much, I have plenty to offer in return.
I particularly enjoy mentoring young individuals and have maintained close collaborations with educational institutions. My goal is to craft my speeches, lectures, and workshops to be both educational and inspirational while actively engaging the audience.
