Today we’d like to introduce you to Linda Farha.
Hi Linda, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Following an incredible career at a rapidly growing tech company (I started as employee number 10 and managed 35 people after one year) that I joined in 1999 as VP Marketing and Communications, I started Zenergy Communications in 2003. This trilingual (English, Spanish and French) communications agency was apparently an interim ‘gig’, however, the learnings from my former entrepreneurial employer who grew his startup exponentially helped propel my drive and motivation to stay the course and embrace my journey.
Over the past 20 years, I have had the great fortune to meet and learn from a broad range of people near and far who have made a significant difference in business and in society. I have also learned from those that have joined Zenergy, many of whom have gone on to experience their own success. I still learn every day from the many team members that have been part of the Zenergy family, some of which supported me even before the agency was established.
Since our humble beginnings in Montreal, we have expanded to Toronto, Vancouver, New York, Fort Lauderdale plus an extended reach across Europe! While keeping true to our mission to provide strategic personalized service.
We are celebrating 20 years in 2023 and are most thankful to everyone responsible for our success… from employees, collaborators, customers, and vendors.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Every business faces ups and downs, but it’s important to address the downs and learn from them. It’s equally important to understand the ups and create an environment for more! I started my business in 2003 alone and signed a large client immediately so I needed the help of a freelance collaborator right away! I was fortunate to know someone who would be perfect…except he proceeded to steal from me, so I had to sever ties despite his capabilities. I put measures in place to ensure that would never happen again…and it did not! Strong, loyal employees are critical to any business, and finding great talent has become more difficult than ever. I am happy to say that as we enter our 20th year in business, we have a strong, committed team. With most working remotely, that was a major feat to realize!
