WE ARE NOT

Your typical agency

Content creators and storytellers for lifestyle, travel and wellness,
we are both advisors and ambassadors to our brands, immersing ourselves
into their worlds to generate meaningful dialogue with impact.
Our clients are not ‘mass’ and neither are we – our approach to PR goes far
beyond clippings – we believe in targeted storytelling over mass communication.
Planning communications strategies and creating successful PR campaigns for brands is an integral part of The Comms Club's work. Based in Dubai, the agency's specialists are dedicated to promoting tourism, lifestyle and well-being by creating unique stories and content for their clients. The importance of proper positioning and building a dialog with the target audience sets The Comms Club apart from other agencies. They actively collaborate with influencers, journalists and partners to maximize the visibility and success of their projects. But don't forget about the entertainment options offered by modern online casinos. If interested in gambling pastime, it is worth paying attention to the game of baccarat. This game, popular among players around the world, offers not only a chance to win, but also an exciting experience. You can learn more about the rules and strategies of the game on a specialized page dedicated to baccarat: https://austriawin24.at/baccarat/. So, combining a smart approach to PR and marketing with the opportunity to relax and try your luck at online casinos creates a unique and interesting mix of opportunities for brands and consumers.

We are Passionate That

The best work comes from spending face-to-face time with our clients, and we do not have an office for this reason. Gone are the days of multiple email chains – we want to sit with you and be a part of each brand and every story.
We define and refine our brands’ voices and find the right mix of platforms for them to be heard at the right time, amongst the right people.

Reaching the Region

We are based in Dubai but cover Saudi Arabia and the whole
GCC region, with the option to expand our team in specific
markets should a client require.

The Team

Maryanne Peacock – founder of The Comms Club

Maryanne Peacock is the founder and CEO of The Comms Club – a Dubai-based public relations and communications consultancy.

Originally from the UK, Maryanne spent the first few years of her career in London, and in 2013 made the move to Dubai to start a new chapter.

Over the next four years, Maryanne worked in some of the largest agencies in the region including Havas and PRCO, building her network, developing strong relationships with GCC media, influencers and brand partners, and enhancing her knowledge of the local market.

A natural go-getter and networker, in her spare time Maryanne also pursued her passion of writing travel and lifestyle features for various publications, and set up a blog under the name of The Doodle Diaries.

With a wealth of experience under her belt, Maryanne decided it was time to go it alone in 2017 to pursue her dream of doing things a bit differently from the traditional PR agency set-up. She spotted a gap in the market for making the communications industry a more collaborative and communicative space, and The Comms Club was born.

With clients across a broad range of sectors including wellness, hospitality, F&B and luxury real estate to name a few, the reach of The Comms Club has grown over the past seven years with clients in the GCC and around the world.

Maryanne has a passion for delivering excellent results, creating inspiring campaigns, growing existing brands and launching new ones into the market.
A fearless leader and a champion for females and mums who want to have the freedom to work but with flexibility and empowerment, Maryanne has attracted amazing talent to the agency and now manages a team of five.

Maryanne also has her own successful parenting podcast – Mother Tongue – which works in harmony with The Comms Club to support the baby and parenting sector in the GCC.
