Whistle

Whistle, a pet health and location tracker, needed to build its brand awareness and market credibility within the rapidly growing pet industry. Next PR took the leash.

THE CHALLENGE

With smart collars being the most widely adopted pet tech contributing to the rise, Whistle needed to elevate brand awareness, drive sales and cement itself as an industry leader. Next PR got to work building a compelling media outreach program to help make Whistle a top dog in the pet industry.

 

HOW WE GOT THERE

Next PR developed a media outreach strategy that showcased Whistle as the leader in transforming pet care to national lifestyle, business, technology and pet-focused outlets.

The team identified key industry reporters and sent product samples to establish relationships and secure reviews.

Next PR also leveraged Whistle’s holiday flash sales for product inclusion in gift guides, deal coverage and product roundups in order to raise awareness among target consumers.

To show Whistle’s credibility, the team shared expertise from staff veterinary doctors in trending pet conversations, like pet anxiety during COVID-19 and how to keep your dogs from overheating in the summer.
