PR & Communications in our HOME city, Pretoria

Three tiers. Basic from R8,500/mo covers a managed media list, two press releases a month, and reputation monitoring. Growth from R18,000/mo adds proactive pitching, four releases, thought leadership writing, and quarterly strategy sessions. Full from R35,000/mo layers in crisis preparedness, spokesperson training, government-affairs and stakeholder communications, and full reputation management. Every tier is month-to-month on 30 days notice, with no long-term contract. See the pricing page or ask for a scoped quote.

We work with the Rekord community titles across Pretoria East, Centurion and the eastern suburbs, Pretoria News, Beeld and Netwerk24 for the Afrikaans market, Business Day and Fin24 for corporate and financial stories, SABC News and Newzroom Afrika for broadcast, Daily Maverick and Bizcommunity, plus the departmental, parliamentary and diplomatic press that sit in the capital. We also pitch higher-education and medical trade press for university and healthcare clients. Targeting is by beat and journalist, never a bulk wire blast.

Yes, and it is a core reason clients pick a Pretoria partner. As the administrative capital, the city concentrates national departments, state entities, regulators and embassies. We craft public-sector messaging, manage stakeholder and government-relations communications, prepare spokespeople for scrutiny, and keep language accurate and on-record. This work sits in the Growth and Full programmes.

Yes. Pretoria is an education and diplomatic hub, home to major universities in Hatfield and Arcadia, foreign missions, and long-established professional-services firms in Brooklyn and Menlyn. We run research announcements and expert commentary for education clients, event and cultural PR for missions, and thought leadership and referral-building coverage for law, accounting, engineering and medical practices.

Preparation first: playbooks, holding statements, spokesperson training and scenario planning built before anything goes wrong, included in the Full programme. When an incident hits, we move fast with monitoring, a coordinated media response, social listening, and clear stakeholder updates. Because Pretoria organisations often sit under public and regulatory scrutiny, this readiness matters. Reactive support outside a retainer is available on a day-rate.

A monthly report logs every placement with outlet, date and journalist, estimated reach, media value equivalent, sentiment, whether your key messages landed, and share of voice against named competitors. We monitor Pretoria and national print, broadcast, online and social so nothing is missed, and the numbers steer the next month's pitching.

Yes. Pretoria is our home city and our head office is here, at 14 Gordon Verster Road. That means in-person strategy sessions, spokesperson training and briefings are easy to arrange, and we already know the local media landscape first-hand. We serve the rest of South Africa too, but Pretoria clients get face-to-face access without the travel.

A timely news hook can land coverage in 24 to 72 hours. Thought leadership placements usually take two to six weeks, and feature articles four to eight weeks from acceptance. Steady, relationship-driven coverage compounds over three to six months, which is why Pretoria's professional and public-sector market, where trust is built slowly, rewards a minimum six-month commitment.
