As a brand, knowing how to understand your target audience is crucial for brand success. But understanding your target is only possible when you have learned how to identify a target audience for your product or service.
For businesses, the terms ‘PR’ and ‘marketing’ are often used interchangeably. Despite being two distinct fields, this isn’t necessarily an unfair mixup; after all, both fields are responsible for getting your brand seen and heard.
Our client wins in the FMCG industry continue with a really exciting one – this time around, it’s premium frozen meal brand, ByRuby! ByRuby has chosen Wild Card as its retained PR partner as it celebrates its launch into national grocery retail with a listing in Waitrose.
Merely a few weeks in and Twitter is not the place it used to be. Since the Elon Musk takeover, we have seen a huge amount of internal layoffs and some of the big brand advertisers move away from the platform, so at this stage, it is hard to see any future for the social media channel.
Cornish Lithium has appointed Wild Card PR to help build its profile both locally and nationally, working alongside regional specialists Curlew and financial consultants, BlytheRay.

Experiential marketing is a marketing strategy companies use to directly involve consumers in their brand experience. By using experiential marketing to create an event for your business, you are creating a memorable experience for your customers that can help to create connections between your customers and your brand.
As the cost-of-living crisis really starts to bite, marketeers across the country are being faced with a double whammy – cuts to their budgets combined with media inflation driving up the cost of advertising.
The social media landscape changes almost daily – from the latest trend to a new platform update, it’s crucial to make sure you’re on top of any social media updates. As we’ve said before, a social media strategy is important for successfully marketing your brand, and it has the power to enhance your PR efforts as well.
