Nothing I can think of.

I worked with Bolt PR from 2018 to 2024 and appreciated their modern and comprehensive approach to public relations. While many agencies were still focused on traditional media outreach, Bolt PR implemented more direct and effective strategies, such as arranging deskside meetings. These meetings gave our brand the opportunity to demonstrate new products in person to invited media, allowing product strengths to be conveyed clearly while fostering stronger relationships with editors.

A special mention goes to Matalee, my main point of contact at Bolt PR. She was consistently dependable, communicative, and organized—bringing clarity and steady support across every stage of our projects. Her involvement made the collaboration all the more seamless and productive.

Their PR strength tends to lie in more general tech media like TechRadar or Tom's Hardware. For more specialized media such as for video or programmers, they'd have limited coverage or influence
