Full-Service Creative · Media · Production — Accra, Ghana

We make brands

The Point of View

Africa doesn't need louder advertising. It needs braver brands.

The most exciting consumer story in the world is happening right here — a young, mobile-first, culture-exporting continent whose attention is won on the street, on the timeline and on the airwaves all at once. Yet most brands still show up with borrowed ideas and imported playbooks.

AD7 was built to close that gap. We pair deep Ghanaian cultural intelligence with global-standard craft, and we back every idea with real media, real production and real distribution — because our sister companies print the paper, run the newsroom, own the studio and build the billboards.

AD7What We Do

Seven disciplines.
One agency. Zero handoffs.

Most brands in our market juggle a strategy shop, a creative boutique, a media buyer, a social team and a printer — and lose the idea somewhere in between. AD7 puts all seven disciplines on one floor, so the thinking that wins the pitch is the same thinking that ships the work.

Ways of Working

Three ways to hire us.

01

The Retainer

A dedicated cross-discipline team on your brand, month in, month out. Always-on creative, media stewardship, quarterly strategy reviews and a single accountable lead. Built for brands playing the long game.

02

The Campaign

A defined brief, a defined window, a defined outcome. Launches, rebrands, seasonal pushes and product moments — scoped end-to-end from strategy through media and post-campaign reporting.

03

The Sprint

Two to four weeks of concentrated firepower: a brand audit, a naming exercise, a content system, a media plan. Fast, focused and priced for decision-makers who need answers now.

Not sure which discipline you need? That's our favourite brief.

AD7The Seventh Sense™

Five senses take in the world.
The seventh moves it.

The Seventh Sense™ is AD7's proprietary operating system — seven connected moves that take a brand from cultural insight to market impact. It's why the number is in our name, and why our work lands where imported playbooks miss.

The Belief

Culture moves first.
Brands that feel it coming win.

Ghana's consumers don't wait for brands to catch up — they set the pace on the street, in the market, on the timeline and in the charts. The Seventh Sense is a discipline for staying half a step ahead: reading culture early, deciding fast, and executing with the full weight of an integrated media group.

The Seven Moves

Insight in. Impact out.

MOVE 01

Listen

Cultural and market intelligence: street interviews, trade visits, social listening, newsroom signals from The Independent Ghana. We start where your customer actually lives.

MOVE 02

Position

Brand strategy and architecture: naming, positioning, tone of voice and go-to-market. One sharp choice about what your brand stands for — and the discipline to keep it.

MOVE 03

Create

Ideas built to travel: campaign platforms, identity systems, design and motion that hold up on a billboard on Spintex Road and a story on a six-inch screen.

MOVE 04

Amplify

Media planning and buying across print, radio, digital, social and out-of-home — negotiated with the leverage of a media group that owns inventory of its own.

MOVE 05

Activate

Events, experiential and street-level activation, fabricated by Universal Crystal Print and covered by IMG Studios. The moment your brand becomes something people can touch.

MOVE 06

Measure

Dashboards, campaign optimisation loops and honest post-mortems. Every cedi is tracked against reach, response and revenue — and the next flight gets smarter.

MOVE 07

Grow

The compounding move: retained partnership where learning stacks quarter on quarter, creative assets become brand equity, and marketing stops being a cost line.

Why It Works Here

Global standards. Ghanaian instincts. Group-level muscle.

Proximity

We're in the market, not observing it

Our team lives the culture it markets to — the trotro slogans, the radio call-ins, the Friday-night premieres. Insight isn't a research line item; it's our commute.

Infrastructure

We own the pipes

Newspaper, newsroom, studios, print and fabrication — the IMG ecosystem means AD7 ideas ship through owned infrastructure at speed and at cost others can't match.

Accountability

One team answers for the outcome

No finger-pointing between agencies. Strategy, creative, media and production sit in one room and one review — and one team is accountable for the result.

Bring us a brand. We'll bring the seventh sense.

AD7About

Born in a newsroom.
Built for brands.

AD7 Multimedia is the creative, strategy and marketing agency of Independent Media Group — the pan-African media company behind The Independent Ghana, TIG Digital, IMG Studios and Universal Crystal Print. Founded in Accra in 2017 and rooted here ever since, we're the commercialisation engine of a group whose whole business is making people pay attention.

How We Sound
Bold Vivid Youthful Welcoming Authentic Clear Conversational
The Story

A media group's answer to a market's problem.

AD Seven Multimedia was founded in 2017 on one conviction: strategy, creativity and production belong under a single roof. What began as a production-led shop grew into a full-service agency by refusing the industry's usual split — the thinkers in one building, the makers in another, and the idea lost somewhere on the road between them.

As part of Independent Media Group, that conviction now has infrastructure behind it: a newsroom's instinct for what people actually care about through The Independent Ghana, broadcast-grade production through IMG Studios, digital reach through TIG Digital, and industrial print through Universal Crystal Print. We serve clients across Ghana and West Africa and orchestrate campaigns across the entire ecosystem.

The name carries the method: seven disciplines, seven moves, one seventh sense for culture. The diagonal in our mark cuts on an angle for a reason — we don't do straight-down-the-middle.

Evans Mallet

General Manager — AD Seven Multimedia

Evans leads AD Seven day to day — setting the agency's direction, leading its most important client relationships and safeguarding the standard of every engagement.

Wisdom Akoto

Creative Director

Wisdom leads the creative output of the agency, translating strategy into ideas that move audiences and build brands. He directs concept development across campaigns, identities and content, and holds the design and copy teams to a single high bar — as comfortable shaping a national campaign as refining a single frame, always in service of the client's business, never art for its own sake.

AA

Alex Appiah

Art Director

A creative designer with five years across brand, UI/UX, publishing and motion graphics, Alex crafts visuals that communicate clearly and convert. From brand identities to apps, magazines and animation, he designs with purpose — helping brands solve problems, look sharp, speak clearly and stay memorable.

M

Mawuse

Senior Copywriter

Mawuse shapes the words behind the work: campaign lines, scripts, brand messaging and platform-ready content. She finds the sharp, human way to say what a brand means, then carries it across radio, digital and film without losing the thread — writing for the ear as much as the eye, a strength behind AD Seven's broadcast and voice-led campaigns.

Blessing Tetteh

Project Manager

Blessing keeps the agency's work on time, on budget and on brief — planning resources across strategy, creative and production, tracking dependencies and removing blockers before they become problems. From multi-channel campaigns to live events, she brings the discipline that lets creative people do their best work.

TE

Tega Enai

Head of Digital & Media

Tega leads how AD Seven plans, buys and optimises media across traditional and digital channels. He owns the agency's performance, social and search practice — negotiating placements, managing spend and reporting against real business metrics, so every budget works harder and every channel earns its place.

Abigail Twumwaa Ampofo

PR & Communications Lead

Abigail is a multimedia journalist with Independent Media Group, covering politics, governance, business, sports, aviation and social affairs. She produces accurate, balanced and impactful stories that inform, educate and hold institutions accountable — reporting on the issues shaping public discourse, national development and Africa's progress.

Andy Gyimah

Multimedia Studio Lead

Andy is a Ghanaian creative specialising in videography, photography and editing, with a degree in TV & Film Production from GH Media School.

AS

Alexander Asare

AV & Technical Manager

Alexander designs and delivers the technical backbone of AD Seven's events and installations — specifying, integrating and operating audio-visual systems for venues, retail and corporate spaces, and leading the technical crew on live productions.
