The Challenge

A Story To Tell Before Kick Off.

Bolt PR needed to craft a compelling and differentiating brand narrative to break through an increasingly competitive marketplace, earn pre-launch media buzz, develop and execute an extensive influencer outreach program for “beta testing,” and launch a crowdfunding campaign purely for marketing purposes. All with no brand recognition and before ever officially going to market.
