From a blank page in May to Carnegie Hall in December
It starts
JSI Group Digital begins as a one-person agency with a simple promise: look sharper, run smoother, grow faster. The files don't hold much from May and June, so this chapter is the quiet one.
The machine gets built
The first commit on jsigroup.co lands July 6. A company agreement, lead lists of about 660 local businesses, call scripts and email templates follow. July is the busiest month for the site, 248 changes.
The first real client
On September 27 the first invoice goes out, $500 for graphic design on the Global Social Impact Awards at Carnegie Hall. In October a client pays $150 unprompted, and a London summit gets its graphics and media wall.
It compounds
The GSIA site goes live. A $3,350 scope is set, with $10,000 in sponsorship recognition and two VIP tickets. jsigroup.co gets Bundles, Examples and a Multi-Location lane. Then a second world opens: Innovative Freedom and Team Kenya.
Where it points
A sponsor deck for Josh, a retainer, co-branded work with very large companies, and a 2027 full of London and New York summits.
