Working with Duo Marketing for our media training was a game-changer. They guided us through realistic scenarios, such as crisis management, emphasising the importance of measured responses. For team members new to media interactions, the session was engaging and built confidence. Team members shared their experiences, saw glimpses of how thought leadership is developed, and now understand the value of Duo’s expertise. We feel reassured that our PR activities are in capable hands, making Duo an invaluable partner.

Over the last year, DUO has enabled us to achieve exposure in the South African market to audiences we could never have reached otherwise. Your extensive networks in the tech media industry, your insightful contributions to our articles and thought leadership pieces, your proactive management of our monthly goals and targets, and your wise guidance to us as we embark on our PR journey have all been invaluable.
