Meet Dimitrius Mayo of GrindFace TV

Today we’d like to introduce you to Dimitrius Mayo.

Dimitrius, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
In July 2011 I started a brand called GrindFace Apparel. I spent years designing and promoting the brand with hip-hop artist. Even though I had a big buzz and people knew the brand, I wasn’t making a profit.

So in 2016, I decided that I needed to build an audience, which led me to creating GrindFace TV. A platform where unheard talent could be pushed to the forefront and be seen. After reaching 100K on Facebook and Instagram, I charged artist, businesses, and entrepreneurs a small fee to be seen by my audience.

Last year in 2018, I made 20K from promotion, which allowed me to open a small studio office and quit my 9 to 5 job. Within the office, I am currently filming original content for our youtube channel. We’re still in the growing phase trying to reach one million, but we will get there.

Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The obstacles I came across was being BANNED on platforms. I found the formula to grow fast and the content people loved. However, it went against the guidelines of the platform.

I was banned from Facebook four times, losing a 100K page, banned three times from Instagram, losing a 75k page and also banned from youtube.

GrindFace TV – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
GrindFace TV is a platform where unheard talent can have an audience. Our main focus now is to build our audience. We have a few freelance photographers that go to events and capture special moments. A graphic designer to assist artist in promo materials. We also help people grow their Instagram with authentic users.

Our proudest moment at the company is one of our video clips making it on national news and having every big news station reaching out to us.

The people loving our brand is what sets us apart from the rest.

What moment in your career do you look back most fondly on?
The ability to be able to readjust after being banned on a few social media platforms and coming back harder and better.
