The thematic content analysis, was applied. This study’s data was the documentation of the narrative posts presented in the @sandiuno Instagram account during the campaign period starting from 23 September - 14 April 2019. Of all the posts on that date will be selected from the highest number of comments, after being listed, the unit of analysis in this study is March 18 - April 13, 2019. The study’s findings revealed that Uno’s narration focused on building hopes and motivation to draw millennial’s interest in entrepreneurship. Unfortunately, the narrated entrepreneurship does not depict a holistic description of the entrepreneurship process. It ignored the supporting elements of entrepreneurship, such as capital, market strategy, and strategy to survive the competition. Besides, it neglects the potential risk and does not highlight the sustainability of entrepreneurship.
