Neil Doveton - FASHION & GROOMING DIRECTOR - MEN'S HEALTH | Sarie - Candice Lee Kannemeyer - Beauty Editor I just wanted to say thanks so much for all your effort, efficiency and wonderful service given to me when I desperately needed help on my rose feature.

Whenever I need relevant information or products in a hurry, it is very comforting to know that Freebees are only a phone call away. Not only are they reactive, in that they provide me in record time with info and products that I might need for a beauty feature, but they are pro-active to the extreme, always anticipating my needs and planning ahead to gain the best exposure for their clients while simultaneously being very helpful to the media. Elsa Kruger Tammy Jackson - Health & Beauty Journalist Hi Ladies
I just want to say a massive thank
you to my favourite Freebies girls for all your efforts with the amazing gift
bags I was able to put together for the Editors. Thanks again for helping me out!
| TLC Magazine - Sally Jones - Editor As editor of a number of titles in the Picasso Headline company (a niche marked publishing house under the auspices of Johnnic Media Division) I have had extensive dealings with Freebees. I have found them to be highly efficient, dedicated and enthusiastic and would comfortably rate them amongst the top echelons of PR companies in Cape Town for their professionalism and work ethic. The company works swiftly, keeping its press releases succinct and to the point. This, alone, is a huge bonus as it reduces the amount of time needed to work lengthy diatribes into shortened articles for publication. Having been closely involved with Freebees particularly on the medical magazine, TLC -- it was apparent from an early stage that this is an organisation that takes pride in its professionalism, ensures that press information is directed to the best possible publication and are diligent about following up on press releases sent to the media. They come with my highest recommendation. Sally V Jones - TLC Magazine |
