Overview

This circle is the front end, online face of the collective. It draws attention, builds our reputation, spreads the word, creates awareness and acts as a first point of contact for many potential clients. Media Peers promotes everything that GT does or creates, as well as any other related material. This means keeping our readers excited and part of our collective consciousness by curating attractive and exciting language, images, videos, etc. Media Peers also keeps in touch with readers, clients, partners, etc. and takes care of networking work, whether on social media or not.
