What is Luxury PR?
Luxury PR supports marketing efforts to promote high-price products or services to sought-after luxury consumers. The main difference for this audience is that they’re much more targeted as not everyone can obviously afford luxury items. They’re looking for pure class.
A luxury product needs to stand out against its competitors and justify the difference in pricing. Our team’s expert knowledge is able to deliver content and messages that will make luxury consumers feel like they’ve got exclusive access to your brand.
As a Luxury PR agency, we’ve worked with global brands such as Goldsmiths, Watches of Switzerland, and Carvella. Our team are able to implement integrated PR and marketing campaigns, to communicate your brand story and showcase their products through PR storytelling. This way, we can make meaningful connections with potential customers and turn them into loyal brand advocates.
How is the Luxury Industry Different from Any Other?
PR and marketing strategies for the luxury sector are different from others, as we’re not appealing to the mass audience. This audience is wanting luxury brands to take more of a stance on race, inequality, and the environment. So, it’s even more important than ever to land a consistent theme of brand messages through social media and comms, whether that’s through brand ambassadors or different channels that are going to build a community.
And with trends, such as NFT’s entering the market, plus video-focussed platforms such as TikTok and Instagram also on the rise – there’s an ever-changing online audience. We’ve operated for over 10 years in the PR industry, constantly utilising new channels and trends for clients to empower brand exposure online and offline.
