The Campaign

We tapped into our experience and expertise in the teen market and put together a bespoke programme publicity campaign in a very short space of time; generating cut through in a hard to reach demographic, with a range of tactics from media relations, to exclusive social content alongside traditional previews and reviews.

We quickly achieved picks and highlights in Radio Times, Daily Mail, Total TV Guide and The Sunday Times as well as regional pieces in Wolverhampton Express & Star, Shropshire Star, Aberdeen Evening Press and Irish News.

Through the effective use of individual pitches across the campaign we placed a review in The Sunday Times, an interview feature in Kidzcoolit and two separate interview features in Girl Talk as well as leading TV based pieces in The Week Junior and Refinery 29.
