Sengled
Sengled, a smart lighting company, came to Next PR to differentiate its smart bulbs from other giants in the IoT industry as the bright choice for the everyday consumer.
THE CHALLENGE
In the middle of the IoT revolution is Sengled: a smart lighting company with a suite of bulbs that reduce your carbon footprint, play your favorite music, monitor your front door and eliminate “internet black holes” in your home. Next PR partnered with Sengled to position the brand’s smart bulbs against competitors in the IoT space.
HOW WE GOT THERE
Next PR’s integrated PR and social media teams joined forces to hone Sengled’s messaging in lifestyle, technology and local markets, as well as engage the right audience on social media channels. The team’s approach included trade show support at major industry events such as CES, holiday gift guides, thought leadership campaigns and product launches and reviews.
By identifying the right message for the right readers – affordability for families, innovative features for the tech-savvy and home improvement for the host – Next PR helped bring Sengled bulbs to new customers at all levels of the smart home experience.
