What do you get when you put 3Way Group’s 20-million-strong POPIA compliant robust consumer database and their deep understanding of consumer behavior In a mixer with RAPT Creative Agency innovative, creative and powerhouse team? The result: a plug-and-play insights engine that helps brands truly understand and activate in both South Africa’s most urban and underserved markets. We’re not here to do insights for insights sake. This is insights with impact. Actionable data that drives real results, real ROI, and real consumer engagement. I like to say, If you need insights on consumer behavior in Noenieput, Dwaalboom, or Blouberg (not the Cape Town one—the really remote one), then ADD.Intelligence should be the first place you call. We go where the data lives. Danny Aaron Genevieve van Vuuren 🏴 Melanie Campbell 3Way Group Dylan Koen RAPT Creative Agency
