COMPANY BACKGROUND
Led by founder Mr. Collen Lepulana, the company has helped some of South Africa’s small to medium businesses in various sectors take steps towards achieving their business goals. Through our consistent desire to add value to companies and provide the best work we can, we’ve seen companies start and grow to different sizes and had the privilege of being part of their existence and growth. Having seen how dedicated and hard-working business people are, we strive to exceed their work ethic and deliver great work that exceeds their expectations. We continue to invest in learning and empowering ourselves so we can offer more value to clients.
Whiteball Creative Solutions is a 100% youth black-owned company located at 40 5th Street, Wynberg, Sandton, South Africa. The company is a level 1 rated contributor to Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE). As a result, our clients are allowed to claim 135% of the value spent on our services as BEE procurement. With over twelve years of consistently adding value to businesses, we understand that building and maintaining strong relations with our stakeholders forms and must remain an essential part of our mission and success; that is why we aim to promote customer importance and satisfaction. We believe that the basis of a successful project or service delivery rests on the ability of the company to execute the projects using capable resources that can work with speed and accuracy.
SUSTAINABILITY
Whiteball Creative Solutions focus is tackling economic issues in South Africa. Our strategy is to focus on and prioritize products and services that have a tremendous impact on businesses and communities, with opportunities for growth and economic empowerment. To take maximum advantage of the internet, going green becomes a big part of our sustainability strategy. The internet enables us, and our stakeholders to reduce, amongst others, printing-related and automobile commuting activities which have a detrimental effect on global warming and nature preservation. We also aim to deliver sustainable social impact through dedicated Corporate Social Investment (CSI) program support.
ISSUES THAT MATTERS
First, we tackle the issues of failing start-ups and small businesses. We do this by empowering them with sufficient resources and knowledge, through stories and case studies of successful entrepreneurs. We also want to tackle issues of gender inequalities in business, as explained in the diversity and empowerment section below.
DIVERSITY & EMPOWERMENT
Our employment structure is to have at least 60% women and 40% men, particularly in senior management positions. We will also prioritize the youth and people living with disabilities; most especially since our services accommodate working remotely effortlessly. Whiteball Creative Solutions leaves no room for discrimination and racism, and as a result, our salary structure is not affected by gender or race. We will pay all employees by the value they bring to the company, and our employment criteria will be based on the capabilities of candidates, not limiting their experience. At least 50% of employees must be youth under the age of 35, and our employees must reflect the beauty of our rainbow nation.
