Why Brandlifi
Three reasons audio & tech brands choose us.
Not just another PR tool. A specialist two-sided network built for your industry.
01
The journalists who cover your industry are already here
Hundreds of verified journalists — from specialist titles like What Hi-Fi?, T3 and Hi-Fi News to Forbes, The Times and Good Housekeeping — actively use Brandlifi to find brands and source stories. You're not cold-pitching into the void. You're showing up where the press are already looking.
02
Journalists come to you — not the other way around
Brandlifi's journalist requests feed sends real-time alerts when journalists are actively looking for products, expert comment or brand news in your category. No other PR platform offers this. It turns your press office from a passive page into a live opportunity feed.
03
A fraction of the cost — with nothing to hide
Brandlifi starts at £99/month with a 14-day free trial and no long contracts. Real-time reporting shows exactly who's viewing, downloading and engaging with your content. No agency mark-up. No black box. Just clear, measurable PR that you control.
"We started using Brandlifi about a month ago and saw incredible results almost immediately. After uploading our press release and a few product photos, we were featured in over 20 articles within just two weeks. Website traffic surged by 160%, we added over 800 new signups to our waitlist, and the brand exposure directly led to 10+ B2B sales opportunities."
