The Challenge
Wolf Gourmet is a luxury brand that manufactures a variety of appliances, including countertop ovens, blenders, coffee makers, kettles, stand mixers, griddles, and more. Throughout 2022, lotus823 executed a comprehensive public relations strategy with the goal of growing brand awareness and sustaining Wolf Gourmet as a luxury appliance brand in the cooking, home, and lifestyle spaces.
The Strategy
lotus823’s comprehensive strategy was focused on Wolf Gourmet’s versatile product lineup. This strategy consisted of ongoing editorial outreach, media relations, sample coordination, media monitoring, award opportunities, virtual events, and in-person events.
As Wolf Gourmet’s countertop appliances are a high-end collection with a more expensive price point than the average staple kitchen appliance, lotus823 was selective in outreach efforts in order to reach key demographics for the brand. lotus823 targeted affluent lifestyle, gifting, and other publications, as well as relevant influencer opportunities.
