Kgauhelo Dube - Marketing Strategy, Communications & Advocacy Specialist

I’m Kgauhelo Dube, a passionate advocate for the arts and a seasoned professional with over 15 years of experience in marketing strategy, communications and community engagement.

As the founder of The Artist’s Helpdesk, a non-profit focused on supporting artists and creatives, I specialize in developing impactful campaigns that amplify voices, drive social change and foster sustainable growth in challenging environments.

In my work, I combine strategic marketing and communications expertise with a deep understanding of community needs.

I craft messages that resonate, build relationships that last and develop strategies that elevate organizations and individuals within underrepresented communities.

I’ve worked extensively with artists, small businesses and social enterprises, helping them navigate complex landscapes and achieve tangible results.

My skills include:

• Marketing Strategy: Creating and implementing effective marketing plans tailored to your unique needs, whether it’s for a product, service or cause.
• Communications: Developing clear, compelling content for websites, social media, blogs, press releases and more.
• Brand Strategy: Helping businesses and organizations define their purpose, values and unique voice in a crowded market.
• Copywriting: Crafting engaging and persuasive written content for all forms of communication.
• Advocacy and Community Engagement: Building campaigns that drive action, raise awareness and advocate for social justice.

In addition to my professional work, I’m committed to supporting the marginalized, especially artists who are struggling to gain recognition or access to resources.

I’m always open to bartering my skills in exchange for the support I need, and I believe in the power of mutual aid to strengthen our communities. If you’re interested in collaborating or swapping services, I’d love to connect!

Together, we can make a meaningful impact.
