The Launch of Birdelo: A New Era in PR Technology
Visionary entrepreneurs
Nikki Carlson and
Kailynn Bowling, well-known for their contributions to women-focused electronics and high-profile PR agencies, have recently unveiled
Birdelo. This innovative PR-tech platform, originally developed back in 2008, has undergone a complete transformation and is now poised to disrupt the public relations landscape once again.
A Legacy of Innovation
The driving forces behind Birdelo, Carlson and Bowling, are no strangers to pioneering technologies. Their journey began in 2004 with the launch of
ChicBlvd Magazine, a platform that fostered community engagement among women long before social media became mainstream. This insightful connection allowed them to identify significant gaps in the electronics market, particularly in tech accessories that were often devoid of style and practical functionality.
In response to this need, they founded
ChicBuds, the first electronics brand specifically tailored for women, combining fashion with technology. Their success catapulted ChicBuds into a cultural phenomenon, gaining spots in major retail environments like
Nordstrom and
Target, and recognition across media outlets including
The Today Show and
People Magazine.
Accomplishing widespread acclaim and recognition led to their venture being acquired, which enabled them to dedicate their efforts solely to expanding into the PR and tech sectors.
The Birth of a PR Solution
As they built their PR agency
ChicExecs, both Carlson and Bowling encountered a universal challenge in the media realm: professionals faced an overwhelming surge of irrelevant email pitches and lacked a centralized resource for relevant content. Drawing upon their experiences from managing pitches received through ChicBlvd, they crafted a proprietary platform in 2008 designed to facilitate brand-to-media communication. This early innovation had the critical functionality that would later evolve into what we now recognize as Birdelo.
Over the years, Birdelo had been gradually refined and tested, allowing for a strong foundation of its features. Today, it has re-emerged as
Birdelo 2.0, a modernized platform equipped with advanced AI tools and intelligent search capabilities. This state-of-the-art technology makes it easier than ever for brands and media professionals to connect efficiently.
A Solution Driven by Experience
Nikki Carlson reflected on the necessity of this evolution, stating, "Everything we've built — from ChicBlvd to ChicBuds to this system — came from identifying what was missing and being first to fix it. Birdelo continues that legacy." Kailynn Bowling also emphasized the influential journey that brings Birdelo to fruition: "This is a solution we built long ago because we lived the problem ourselves. Birdelo is the evolution of our vision, now backed by technology that enhances its usability."
Birdelo for the Modern Era
With an expansive network exceeding
100,000 brands, Birdelo supports media outlets in finding product samples, high-resolution images, diverse story angles, and affiliate opportunities—all consolidated within a user-friendly platform. This accessibility is crucial as the PR landscape continues to evolve.
Notable media outlets that are already harnessing Birdelo's capabilities include
Good Housekeeping,
Women's Health Magazine, and
E! News, making it evident that the platform is designed specifically for contemporary PR needs.
As the public relations sector evolves and adapts, Birdelo 2.0 stands ready to lead the charge, redefining how brands and media collaborate on storytelling. For further information, visit
