The PR campaign was supported by key campaign themes, maintaining brand awareness and positioning Pulsant as a thought leader. Articles secured in top tier media linked to the broader marketing campaign. The social media campaign ran across Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook to drive social opportunity and engagement.
