Context

This script was created for TRYVE, a skills and career-focused platform targeting young Nigerians navigating unemployment, career switches, and income growth challenges. The video needed to feel honest, aspirational, and grounded in local realities while reinforcing TRYVE’s mission and value.

Task & Challenge

Task:

• Create a concise, engaging interview-style script that speaks directly to young Nigerians.

• Address common fears around employment, income ceilings, and relocation.

• Position skill acquisition, mindset, and execution as the core solution.

• End with a strong, inclusive brand call-to-action.

Challenge:

• Avoiding clichés around hustle culture while still sounding motivational.

• Keeping the tone realistic, not preachy or exaggerated.

• Communicating TRYVE’s value without turning the script into a hard sell.

And an even stronger desire to work.

If you learn, adapt, and execute,
