London, UK – 18 October 2013: Nutz, a new high-end, luxury headphones brand, has appointed consumer technology PR agency EML Wildfire to drive mass consumer awareness for its UK launch.
EML Wildfire has created a strong campaign for Nutz combining creativity with a hard-working press office. The initial focus will be on maximising online visibility and comprehensive product reviews to secure distribution and sales, before generating mass consumer awareness in 2014.
Aiming to ‘bring listening to music back to what it should be – fashionable, affordable and enjoyable’, EML Wildfire will be working with the team at Nutz to launch its range of over-ear and in-ear products. A rigorous product reviews programme, will be used to target specific, audience groups across the media spectrum from tech to lifestyle publications.
EML Wildfire has also been tasked with building the Nutz credentials within the music industry. After making waves by establishing a crucial platform for supporting unsigned talent, the agency focus will be on capitalising on this success to increase awareness among music hopefuls while also demonstrating unique retail opportunities.
Gavin James, CEO, commented: “From the very first conversations we had with the EML Wildfire team, their enthusiasm for the brand and consumer technology experience shone through. We’ve had a lot of celebrity interest in the product already, but what we really need are sales, and EML Wildfire clearly demonstrated the ability to blend creativity with traditional PR tactics that will positively influence consumer buying decisions. We look forward to this working relationship and seeing where it can lead from launch.”
Debby Penton, Director at EML Wildfire, added: “Consumers are becoming much more savvy when purchasing technology, often checking with a variety of sources before parting with their hard-earned cash. Online reviews, social proof and endorsement from friends are hugely influential in these buying decisions, and it’s on these foundations that we’ve built our campaign for Nutz, while looking to help the brand stand out from the crowd in terms of personality and brand experience.”
