Challenge
“Press Relations are no longer just about press releases, but also multichannel storytelling. Without PR, Duux may have been overlooked in France.”
Dennis Wessels, Marketing Communication & E-commerce Manager, Duux
As a young Dutch brand specialising in air-treatment products, Duux needed rapid visibility to carve out a place among well-established competitors. The goal was to reach a broad audience—tech, lifestyle, health, fashion—and convince distributors of the brand’s value.
Approach
Dennis Wessels based his PR agency choice on three criteria:
-
A human-scale firm – similar to Duux’s own and capable of offering true personalised support;
-
A genuine connection – true chemistry and mutual understanding are key;
-
A robust journalist network – proven relationships with journalists and market expertise.
OneChocolate ticked every box, which allowed Duux to:
-
define a clear storytelling;
-
produce multichannel content (press releases, interviews, influencer pieces, podcasts);
-
target tech, lifestyle, health, and fashion media to maximise the brand’s outreach.
Results
60-plus coverage pieces across tech, lifestyle, health and fashion media.
Reassured distributors: resellers could see Duux’s commitment to visibility.
Improved legitimacy: the brand is now viewed as a serious player in France.
“With OneChocolate the collaboration is personal, powerful and professional. They gave us confidence and have a very good reputation among French journalists.”
