Advertiser Testimonials:
Thank you for your support and the huge contribution you made to the successful launch of the Zimbali Estate Foundation. Your publicity of the event and interviews with our Board and committee really made the difference in ticket sales. Thanks to you “Under the Stars” was a sell-out! We look forward to building our relationship going forward and adding value in our community.
John M Allan
Chairman Zimbali Estate Foundation
Just a quick note to congratulate you on building such a beautiful and positive community brand - not just in our Region but stretching far and beyond. The quality of your print magazine is gorgeous, and I was so happy to see it proudly holding its space in the Private Lounges too. Thank you for being there not only to support our brand but also your instrumental contribution to building our brand. Your innovative ideas, voice adverts and radio interviews helped us to strengthen our position and we are so grateful for your knowledgeable council when we are undecisive.
Wishing you all of the best going forward, and rest assured that LIFE&STYLE will always be our number 1 stop.

Zimbali lakes took a radio campaign with us in April around a fund raiser for the animals/ dogs but also to get people to Zimbali Lakes - they were quite chuffed with the results and so they took a bigger radio campaign package for the Easter weekend and this really impressed them with the feedback, so they took another campaign (the same size as before) for the next long weekend and this was an even bigger success with the response they got from their radio advertising - in my most recent meeting with them, Dave praised Life & Style and the new connection and relationship we have now built with them and they have just taken the inside double back page with a 4x page feature in our June issue and they have also mentioned doing another radio campaign with us for May and June and of course the rest of the year.

We followed up with Justine (Marketing Manager) to see if they were going to go into the June issue of our magazine and they responded saying that they had such brilliant feedback and a lot of really good leads from last magazine (our April issue) that they are definitely going to do their campaign as normal.

"When we launched HUNT Properties the only money, we had for marketing we spent on Radio Life & Style, we couldn't have spent the money better, as without them our brand wouldn't be established to the same degree in Ballito "

Our advertising with Life & Style keeps us top of mind in the exciting Ballito/ North Coast region. It makes good business sense to stay with what works best. As a result, Blinds Shutters and Awnings continues to stay ahead in this competitive market.

The Christmas Fair broke all records this year. The exposure that Life & Style has given us in print and on the radio has been so effective that we are over the moon with the response! Thanks to all concerned for helping to make the fair such an enormous success.

Advertising is a subtle art and I like the feel of the magazine - it is light - it is well presented; it always has a fresh look and is delivered to the right places. It is tasteful and refreshingly different.

Over the years I have found this Life and Style mag is the best form of advertising. I have found pamphlets and bits and pieces everywhere are not effective. Life & Style is the most effective medium for advertising for my business.
