MarkLives, advertising & editorial policy MarkLives.com believes in independent reportage that lifts coverage of the advertising sector specifically, but also the broader marketing and communication fields, to the level of professionalism deserved by its discerning readers and where it adds value to the industry as a whole. MarkLives.com covers industry players and personalities without expecting compensation in the form of advertising for doing so. You are not our wallet. You are our passion. That does not mean the industry in general or any sponsor in particular can expect uncritical or superficial reporting. MarkLives.com covers the marketing, media and advertising field fearlessly, without compromise, truthfully and even-handedly. Sometimes you won’t like what we write. But when we offer praise it will mean something, it will be real, and everybody will know that. Like your clients. MarkLives_280x280_Nunu MarkLives_280x280_Mathew Sponsor Endorsements “Marklives is not only one of a dwindling number of media outlets in South Africa that supports our industry, but more importantly, it’s one of the few that has a real credibility and intelligent journalism, rather than just a cut and paste of churned out press releases. Since we’ve been on board as a partner, we found it’s grown as an one of the leading outlets to share (and break!) industry news, and a vital point of call for us in continuing to grow our brand profile and keep an eye on what’s happening.” – Emma King Head of PR, The Jupiter Drawing Room “MACHINE launched at a similar time to Marklives, and while we have watched the growth of Marklives, I attribute much of MACHINE’s brand growth and success to the association we have enjoyed with Herman and the site. The growing audience and the quality content and debate it creates, means that our business is closely linked to the cutting edge of our industry. We intend to keep our tie with Marklives for a very long time!” - Adrian Hewlett CEO, Machine Reach us via the contact form on the Contact Us page.
