Actisense Operations Manager, Lesley Keets, approached Darren Northeast PR seeking further exposure for their brand which had been growing at a rapid rate but now needed the public profile to match.

As a niche area of the marine industry, Darren Northeast PR worked with Lesley Keets and the Actisense team to ensure a full understanding of their technical products and the brand’s offering. Darren Northeast PR created an extensive media database of Marine Industry contacts to promote Actisense’s innovative products to relevant journalists.

Darren Northeast PR has helped establish Actisense as a leading Marine Industry brand through international coverage, awards applications, social media and media liaison.

Since 2013, Darren Northeast PR has gained Actisense coverage in a plethora of local publications and industry-specific media on both a national and international level. Darren Northeast PR has also written applications to enter Actisense into a wide variety of industry and business awards. Actisense has gone on to win many of these and is now a multi-award winning brand thanks to the help of Darren Northeast PR.

Along with this, Darren Northeast PR has accompanied Actisense to the annual METSTrade Show in Amsterdam. METSTrade is the world’s largest marine equipment trade show, where DNPR have assisted Actisense, arranging press interviews and publishing live social media posts during the show’s three days.
