The objective? Take Schwinn Bicycles and position it at the forefront of a still nascent, but very visible and important, market segment within the United States: “pedal assist” electric bikes. However, very few eBikes were being sold in the U.S. and few were seen as fun or exciting. These were just some of the challenges facing Politis Communications and sister agency, SOAR Communications, when approached by the 108-year-old Schwinn.
Founded in 1990, Politis Communications specializes in providing public relations, investor relations, and marketing communications services to organizations in the high-tech and life sciences industries
Politis Communications is such a great PR firm I’ve worked with them on each of my last five ventures. In fact, I consider David Politis my personal publicist.
