What Major Media Stands For
Personal Attention
I take time to understand your brand, audience and goals, so your content feels like you not a template.
Long-term Growth
We focus on sustainable visibility and engagement, not quick spikes that disappear in a week.
Real Relationships
Social media works best when it feels like a conversation. I help you build loyal, human connections.

Karoo Baba
Karoo Baba is a Cape Town based company that creates authentic, high- quality sheep skin products. I am commissioned to develop a cohesive visual identity for Instagram and Facebook to showcase their South African merino sheepskin products. This included branded posts, lifestyle and flat-lay imagery, story highlights, and promotional content, all designed to emphasize the brand’s natural, sustainable and local heritage values while boosting engagement and brand recognition.
Pix By Grant
Pix by Grant, a freelance photographer that specializes in portrait, events, bespoke creative imagery and adventure boudoir.
I developed targeted Instagram and Facebook ads tailored to his photographic services. These adds effectively showcased his expertise in capturing moments, leading to increased visibility and client engagement. The content was designed to highlight his unique style and attract potential clients seeking professional photography services. Alongside the ads, I designed his logo and we are currently busy with his website and portfolio design.
Cavalli International
Cavalli International is a Cape Town based company that specializes in fruit logistics and trade, focusing on both local and international markets. I am currently assisting them to establish their social media presence and marketing strategy for a brand that previously had little online presence. I created a Linkedin account, as this is the ideal platform for their free-trade import-export business. Additionally we developed a target marketing campaign and we are currently redesigning their website, staying with their brand colours to ensure acohesive, professional and visually engaging identity.

“I’d been trying to handle my social media ads on my own until I connected with Major Media. After a quick chat with Zanne, a deal was struck and the results spoke for themselves. My posts not only looked better but started reaching the right people. Last night, I found myself talking to my ideal client.
Zanne has a natural talent for creating visually striking, action-driven content that delivers. I’d recommend her to anyone serious about elevating their brand.”
