Media Impresions Ranked first out of its five competitors in SOV
Execution/Tactics
With the strategy plan ready, it was time for Bospar to act. The public relations team created newsjacking quotes, taking advantage of current conversations swirling around the tech world – like Apple’s VR announcement, and the never-ending debate regarding return to office – to provide commentary that put the client in the media spotlight.
Bospar also developed inventive pitches surrounding National Etiquette Week — a week dedicated to practicing good manners — leveraging the client’s survey data on virtual meeting misbehaviors. The team also used survey data to craft a pitch that capitalized on the 53rd anniversary of the first video call.
The PR pros at Bospar knew Jugo’s efforts in virtual DEI were also a strong area of opportunity for media coverage and leveraged that important virtual environment work to create contributed content to build the client’s SEO and improve its thought leadership presence.
Additionally, the client had newsworthy announcements Bospar pulled from for pitching. That included Dan Wood’s appointment as the client’s new CMO and its partnerships with premier football club, Arsenal, and Internova Travel Group, one of the world’s largest travel companies.

Bospar’s hard work paid off!
Newsjacking, as part of the successful PR campaign, proved especially valuable to the Jugo team, allowing the virtual meeting room and events company to stay in the news cycle even when it didn’t have hard news to report. The newsjacking public relations campaign surrounding Apple’s VR announcement resulted in coverage for the virtual environment client in tech publications such as Apple World Today, AR Post (Gergana Mileva) and XR Today (Demond Cureton). Meanwhile Bospar secured placement for client SME comments on return to office in both trade and top-tier media, including Forbes (Bryan Robinson, Ph.D.).
Bospar’s media outreach strategy was a PR success. Multiple publications used the virtual environment client’s survey data to craft stories about Zoom etiquette faux pas during National Etiquette Week. That included coverage in top-tier media outlets MSN and PCMag (Chandra Steele). The survey was also mentioned on Fox News Radio during a segment about the anniversary of the first video call. The announcements also earned placements in Sports Business Journal (Ethan Joyce), AIThority and MarTech Series (Paroma Sen).
Contributed content from Jugo’s SMEs was also instrumental in improving its thought leadership presence, with articles like:
