Our solution

Targeting UK homeowners researching extensions or replacing old conservatories, Unhooked used insights from its Homes Unhooked 2023-2024 market research of 2,000 UK consumers to shape the strategy. Research showed that online searches and recommendations were key sources for renovation advice. Crucial purchasing factors included positive reviews, trusted referrals, and expert knowledge.

The PR strategy developed using these insights was successfully implemented in a trust-driven consumer PR campaign, focused on building credibility through high-profile media coverage, influencer partnerships, and expert endorsements while directly engaging homeowners researching home extensions.

Activity included developing a partnership with architect and designer Laura Jane Clark from BBC’s Your Home Made Perfect, who was secured as the official hup! ambassador. As well as developing a series of videos for online channels, Laura was also quoted in media content and attended two press and influencer events with the hup! team.
