CoganPR’s media relations campaign for Surf Sweets and TruJoy Sweets has generated media coverage across major consumer and trade publications, television and online outlets, totaling over 50 million impressions. We secured coverage in their top choice outlets including Real Simple, Parents and Kiwi. Creating buzz for TruSweets has helped to increase distribution and sales for both brands.
