The Songue Effect

UC Berkeley’s Office of Innovation & Entrepreneurship is delighted with our engagement with Songue. Through it we secured scores of coverage opportunities, including podcast features, news articles, and commentaries that reached a total audience of over 2.5 billion unique visitors per month (UVM). UC Berkeley-affiliated startups also won awards and recognition that Songue identified for us.

When we initially engaged Songue PR, our goal was to gain traction beyond industry-specific publications. Within a remarkably short period, Songue enabled us to consistently exceed expectations. From day one, they secured key media relationships and expanded our coverage from trade publications to top-tier outlets like CNBC, The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and The New York Times. With support from Songue's PR expertise, Dedrone achieved recognition as a CNBC Disruptor company twice and won the TIME Best Invention Award. Their dedication and core capabilities are invaluable, making them our long-term strategic partner for continued success.

Songue is fantastic. I have worked with them twice over the last several years at two different startups. They have a deep understanding of what it takes to get burgeoning businesses out into the public eye. Natalee and Lizi have a wonderful ability to strategize, plan and execute plans that can scale up as a company grows. They are steady hands on the wheel no matter the challenge. Organized, attentive and knowledgeable. And as a bonus, they’re super fun to work with.

Songue has proven to be an incredible partner, time and again. So many firms these days have standardized and cookie cutter approaches in order to streamline process and drive efficiency, but Songue is amazing at both driving a creative, thoughtful strategy, and with impressive speed. It never feels like they’re simply leveraging go-to ideas. They do leverage their rich experiences and networks, but they excel at listening and crafting tailored, masterful ideas. In addition to delivering strategic partnership and terrific media relations, they’re good at “everything else” too: organization, writing, proactive counsel, and the list goes on. For such a small team, I’m amazed at the powerhouse results. Can’t recommend enough!

Songue PR has been an exceptional partner, guiding us through the intricacies of PR strategy while seamlessly navigating challenging moments with their deep expertise in crisis communications. The Songue team sets itself apart by their unparalleled follow-through. They consistently deliver on promises, providing us with top-notch deliverables and maintaining clear deadlines they hold themselves (and us!) accountable to. The team is comprised of excellent writers who are capable of capturing not only the essence of our brand but also complex technical topics. I've worked with many PR firms, but my experience with Songue PR stands out as the best. I look forward to continuing our successful collaboration.
