The SME Brief platform is a collection of all the newsletters that the publication has issued over the past four years. It acts like an archive where both entrepreneurs and industry roleplayers can easily access this library and navigate through the collections of news to find the information they are looking for.

First-party data focus for this newsletter-first publication

“Being a newsletter-first publication ensures that we have an industry-specific platform that brings relevant industry updates and news to our dedicated audience of stakeholders,” says Velly Bosega, CEO of SME South Africa (Oak Ventures). “With the crumbling of the Cookie, this is our answer to move away from third-party data. Marketers who care about first-party data will understand the benefits of this platform.

“We have seen that e-mail marketing is still a growing market because it is people-based,” Bosega points out.

Studies have shown that e-mail marketing provides seven times higher return on investment than other digital marketing tools in South Africa.
