Executive Creative Director: Suhana Gordhan / Chief Strategy Officer: Steve Miller
We’re a senior set up who looks to help our clients realise their opportunities through bringing together business acumen and creativity, packaged in highly engaging ways. We believe everyone has a plan until they’re punched in the mouth. It’s why we look for strategies and tactics which will get to market quicker and then to be prepared to pivot on a dime. We believe it’s not the size of the dog, but the fight in the dog. Preparation, intelligence, tactics and skill trumps size and spend every time. It’s who is in your corner which makes the difference. It’s why we use our DUKE Brain Trust to bring perspectives and thinking which clients won’t find in an ad agency.
