I’m crying inside Olives & Plates. OUR WEBSITE IS LIVE! 🥹😭

I’ve been running a PR agency close to 8 years without a website 🫢

8 years of Marketing Managers saying to their procurement department, “Trust me bro! Add them as a supplier, they will deliver on the work even without a website.”😮‍💨

8 years of you saying, “I don’t know what they do but they do PR right.”😉

I really thought I would get excited when this day eventually happens, when our Web Developer clicks “publish” to our website, but instead I’m overwhelmed with gratitude. 🙏🏽

I’m grateful to the media, Influencers, clients, employees and service providers who made Amplified PR what it is today.

Lest I forget, this PR agency has been built on the back of community and your generosity. 😭

We are because of you! ♥️

I’ve been to many-many events but nothing beats having this Cannes Lions Pass!🦁

Nobody will understand the gravitas of having this tag in my hands, all thanks to @womeninmarketing_africa 

I’m definitely framing this one.

This is our win! 
This one is for all the Dreamers. The Doers. The ones with impostor syndrome. The ones who genuinely believe the gatekeepers live in our heads.

The ones who can’t choose if they’re either nocturnal or early-birds because the work needs to be done no matter what the time of day.

This one is for us!

Never allow your limited exposure to be an obstacle to your ambitions. ✈️

The year is 2017 I’ve taken what seems to many to be a career demotion of working at an advertising agency as an Intern after completing my post graduate studies.

I quickly realise that The Pirates of Advertising love hanging out at the bar after work and this gets to be my only opportunity to hear about their creative process of making award-winning work.

One day at the bar my line manager abruptly turns off the music to announce that the agency has won a Bronze Cannes Lions for one of its campaigns.

I turn to the person next to me and ask, “What’s a Cannes Lion?” Because my only reference of the ultimate advertising industry awards show were the Loeries.

As he chucked his second Don Julio shot down his throat, he slurred “It’s the ultimate creative festival globally”

And so my dreams were altered on that day. Since 2017 all I ever wanted was to go to Cannes Lions one day.

And today I sit at the airport waiting for my flight to Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity 
 
And technically I’m the only Independent PR Agency Founder from Cape Town going to Cannes. 🇫🇷

I repeat, never allow your limited exposure to be an obstacle to your ambitions! 😭♥️

We’re proud to announce the winners of the @womeninmarketing_africa @cannes_lions International Festival of Creativity ERA Passes 2026.

This year’s response was incredible — we received far more applications than last year, and the standard was exceptionally high.

After a thorough review process, we’re excited to have the following women represent Women in Marketing Africa as they head to Cannes Lions:

✨ @sikimsuseni - Founder & Director, @amplified_pr
✨ @hlengz_hms Shakung - Digital Communications Manager, Tiko
✨ @nengiakinola - Head of Marketing, @betkingng
✨ @zinhle_ezamazulu - Head: Brand & Sponsorship, @africanbank
✨ @lady.mekan Eniola Ogunmekan - Deputy Creative Director, @insightpublicis

Each of them stood out for different reasons — clarity of purpose, bold ambition, and a strong commitment to creating impact beyond themselves.

We’re looking forward to seeing how they show up, connect, and bring their learnings back into their communities.
