On what her job as a Sabiman entails, she said: “My job as a Sabiman agent is an outdoor-to-outdoor marketing strategy that enables us to meet our customers’ aim in terms of finding solutions to their recharging problems, reconnection issues and others. Above all being a Sabiman, it is my priority to have a good relationship with my customers so as to promote my job.”
