Why South Africa
Your extra team, working in your hours.
Hiring in London, Amsterdam or Dubai is slow and expensive. A dedicated team in South Africa gives you the same working day, fluent English and work that feels native, for a fraction of the cost of a local hire.
Four reasons
Why agencies choose a South African team.
GMT+2
Same working day
We’re online during UK and European office hours, and 2 hours behind Dubai. Questions get answered the same day, not overnight.
Fluent
English first
Fluent business English and a neutral accent for voice-overs and calls. Briefs, feedback and copy need no translation.
Same feeds
Cultural fit
South African creatives grow up on the same platforms, trends and brands as your audience, so the work feels native.
Better margins
A fraction of the cost
You pay a fraction of what an equivalent local hire costs, with no recruitment fees, payroll tax or equipment.
Same working day
Your morning is our morning.
South Africa runs on GMT+2 all year, with no daylight saving. That means our working day overlaps fully with UK and European office hours, and closely with Dubai.
- Same-day answers to briefs and feedback
- Live calls in your working hours
- No waiting overnight for changes
