South African word-of-mouth agency, previously known as Have You Heard, announces the expansion of its service offering under a new name, hyh. Under the hyh umbrella, the agency now offers fully integrated creative, design, digital, media, events, and communications services for both existing as well as new clients.

hyh’s offering makes use of a dynamic traditional and influencer-led communications department that incorporates research and insights to provide creative solutions and execution for their clients that deliver impactful business results.

The inspiration behind the rebranding continues the legacy of creating meaningful interactions that build brand equity with consumers, using a holistic and channel agnostic approach to the brief that meets rapidly changing consumer demands.

Established seven years ago by Jason Stewart and Ryan McFadyen, the agency is known for its ability to use influence and word-of-mouth to provide consumers with relatable experiences that change attitudes and behaviour towards brands.

Megan Roper, marketing head of sub-Saharan Africa at DHL, adds, "DHL Express sub-Saharan Africa has been working with hyh for the past three years. Their unique influence-based approach to content marketing and engagement has yielded great success for the brand. One of the most notable social engagement campaigns we’ve implemented was our DHL '#AfricaAsOne' campaign, which not only delivered results far beyond our expectations but also won a social media Africa Award for the best use of social media by the private sector."

hyh has grown its footprint over the past year with offices now in Cape Town, Johannesburg, and London and across key markets within Africa and the Middle East.

McFadyen concludes, "We have a longstanding success in delivering one-stop integrated solutions by combining great creative and strategic capabilities led by our insights experts who possess cultural and behavioural knowledge. We are confident that by integrating multi-disciplines in the hyh offering, we’re able to continue leading in the industry and produce world class, impactful work."
