About Us

Our pocket size A6 high quality gloss print magazine has been going for over 27 years!
 
This publication is not only an informative guide and directory of what is available on the KZN South Coast but it also supplies valuable listings on what services are available to the local community as well as advertising and promoting the businesses in the area too. The area maps as well as the tide tables and interesting feature pages form part of this much loved publication. 

The Pulse KZN Magazine was originally established in January 1998 with the aim to get information to the public, both for local residents and also for the many visitors and tourists who frequent our coastline on a regular basis. Through its duration in the first couple of years it went through a few changes in size, being A5 to A6, and then the name from “The Entertainer” to “The South Coaster” and then finally to now “The Pulse KZN Magazine”

WHY CHOOSE THE PULSE KZN TO ADVERTISE IN?

Money will always be spent on PRINT advertising in South Africa.
Print is definitely not dead. No matter how big the web becomes or how powerful digital marketing dominates the market place. Print material will always form a crucial part of a brands overall identity as it stays in the hands of the consumer for a longer period of time. According to recent study, print ads activate different parts of the brain than digital ads, and viewing them “involves more emotional processing, which is important for memory and brand associations”.

Most consumers understand the internet is rife with fake advertising at best, and grossly misleading marketing campaigns at worst Because of the dubious reputation of online ads, print advertisements remain the most trusted source of marketing information. Printed materials will always genuinely captivate an audience in a way that the digital world never will. Smart marketers today integrate their online and printing marketing strategies for a more well-rounded and impactful campaign.
