What we did

Pitched a press release

The journey started with the announcement that Wind Rises secured $ 1M in pre-seed funding.

Pitching the press release to business media was essential to highlight the company’s intention to grow in the region. The news appeared in Arabian Business, Trading View, NABD, Zawya, Mubasher, Enterprise News, Fortune Arabia, etc.

Got journalists and influencers involved

The next step was to invite leading journalists to show them firsthand Wind Rises' Sailing Experience, with no expectations from our side.

We introduced the brand to influencers and invited them to ride a sailboat.

Results

The company also appeared on social media:

— What’sOn Dubai with 445k followers on Instagram

— Hiba (Food and Travel blogger) with 33k followers

— Eve Bastien with 12k, among others!
