Identified by Forrester Research as one of only 6 email marketing service providers suitable for enterprise brand and direct marketers, StrongMail is the leader in cloud and on-premise solutions for email and cross-channel marketing. With over 600 marquee clients in travel, retail, CPG, financial and other sectors, this profitable company of 140 employees is entering a phase of unprecedented growth. Recent product advances in both lifecycle marketing automation and backend -live- data connectivity position StrongMail for aggressive account acquisition in the next 24 months ? especially as the "marketing cloud" evolves and digital marketers see the opportunity to leverage the kinds of advanced functionality that currently exist in StrongMail's product portfolio and roadmap.
This growth comes simultaneously with a commitment to customer satisfaction. Of the six leading enterprise ESPs identified in Forrester?s Email Marketing Vendor Wave Report, StrongMail achieved the highest client retention and client satisfaction rates (93% and 98% respectively).
Headquartered down the road from Oracle in Redwood Shores, the company also maintains a New York presence with its award-winning digital marketing services group. Culturally, StrongMail is a hybrid: a startup feel with the resources of a larger company, a place where creative, ambitious people seeking to make a mark on the industry will find a stellar peer group that works collaboratively off the same page.
