SOUTH AFRICAN AGENCY LAUNCHES SISTER COMPANY GTi COMMUNICATIONS
Greater Than, an award-winning strategic, full-service PR and Communications agency in South Africa, is proud to announce the launch of its sister company GTi Communications. Based in Israel, GTi Communications will be servicing the European, Middle Eastern and African markets (EMEA).
With over 14 years of experience in PR, marketing and event management, as well as 14 industry awards to match, Greater Than is in a prime position to expand its service offering beyond South African borders. Having insight and hands-on experience into the world of business, Owner and Managing Director, Galia Kerbel, who immigrated to Israel 3.5 years ago, saw a gap in the market that needed to be filled.
Proven track record
“Over the years, Greater Than has established itself as the full-service PR and Communications partner of choice to some of the world’s leading brands and companies. With this proven track record, we’re excited to expand our integrated offering into new markets and contribute real business value to our clients through our strong global network, local expertise and commitment to delivering hard-hitting measurable results,” comments Kerbel.
She continues, “A majority of brands structure their operations and marketing efforts according to international regions, of which a major one is EMEA. As we have the insights, capabilities and network to launch and grow our client’s brands within this viable market, this is a perfect opportunity for global brands.”
“Together with Greater Than’s long standing in-country partner, Eclipse Communications as well as additional like-minded, in-country partner agencies, we are able to offer an EMEA solution based on our widely spread expertise.”
Perfectly positioned
The company will serve local brands wanting a reputable communications agency on-board to grow their business in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. “Since the mother-tongue in Israel is Hebrew and with our experience in the industry, we were perfectly positioned and skilled to create clear and effective messaging that makes an impact,” comments Kerbel.
What’s more, GTi Communications will also service global brands looking for an in-country partner in Israel that offers Western service with local expertise.
“Our differentiator is that we deliver service excellence as well as results. We are also able to bridge various gaps for our clients – mainly culture and language gaps. We understand the intricate and critical nuances to deliver on-strategy and day-to-day implementation and opportunities.”
Full-service agency
GTi Communications provides a full-service offering based on the in-country needs, servicing clients with corporate and brand communications for business, technology, consumer and lifestyle brands. Additionally, the company will also offer marketing communication and consulting, including upskilling C-levels in their English presentation communications skills. Not only does this reflect the company’s influence in the industry, but its impressive growth over the last 14 and a half years.
Kerbel continues, “We specialise in integrated marketing communications and creating innovative and impactful campaigns for some exceptional brands. We don’t do mediocre, and we’re passionate about what we do and we do what is great.”
Local and international clientele
The broad range of local and international clients include Dr Chocolate, BIC, Lazerac Hotel and Spa, Russian Bear Vodka, Stretton’s London Dry Gin, Hisense, Humane Society International, Harley-Davidson, MWEB, World Cancer Leader’s Summit, Hugo Boss, TFG, Strongbow, Twix, Pedigree and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, to name a few.
