On average, 26% of a company's marketing budget is spent on technology and everything marketing does is driven by technology. Every promo email, ad, or sponsored post is driven by technology. With companies using 50-250 marketing technologies at any one time, there’s a huge need to track, manage, visualize and report on them to effectively manage spend and performance against company objectives.","story":"We are in the midst of a Digital Transformation revolution.\u0026nbsp;Businesses are digitizing and\u0026nbsp;using more and more technology to evolve internal processes and the customer experience. Think about how your TV viewing, shopping, food shopping, and traveling have changed over the last few years – that’s digital transformation.\u0026nbsp; Nowhere is digital transformation more evident than in the marketing department of any organization. Today, everything\u0026nbsp;marketing does is enabled by technology. Every email that's sent, every ad that's created, and every sponsored social post are driven by one or more technology products. Companies are using 75-250 technology products at any given time to acquire, engage, and retain customers. The dependence on marketing technology has created the need for a platform to manage technology strategy, selection, implementation, performance, and spend\u0026nbsp;-\u0026nbsp;CabinetM is that platform.\u0026nbsp;Working alongside sales, marketing teams are now responsible for revenue and customer lifetime value. Their success is critical to overall business success and is dependent on having a suite of technology tools (e.g., email platform, social media management tools) that perform well individually and as an integrated whole.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;This expensive, complex and integrated group of tools is referred to as the Marketing Technology stack, MarTech stack, or just “stack.”\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp;A company’s MarTech stack actually looks less like a “stack” and more like a jigsaw puzzle where technology tools are connected to each other and share customer data. Managing the complexity of the stack and evolving the stack to address new marketing requirements is challenging and companies are struggling. In fact, Gartner reports that only 58% of the average MarTech stack is fully utilized. Why? There are a number of reasons for poor utilization:Poor product selection – marketing teams have more than 15,000 tools to choose from – choosing correctly is difficultThe complexity associated with product implementation and usePoorly implemented integrationsLack of internal skills to use the technology purchasedThe rapid pace of marketing and marketing technology innovation that requires constant evolution in the stackPoor stack utilization leads to skyrocketing costs and poor marketing performance, which in turn impacts a company’s ability to achieve its revenue and customer lifetime value objectivesEnter: CabinetM. The first-to-market solution of its kind, our platform acts as Operations Command Center that marketing teams use to manage technology discovery, implementation, performance, spend and strategy.CabinetM is a SaaS offering for enterprise level organizations, and the value is staggering: improved marketing performance, increased efficiency, and mega-savings.We’re proud to be the industry’s first Marketing Technology Management platform —already built and being used by best-in-class customers—and the largest marketing technology database with 15,000+ products across 500+ categories.

Customers are typically up and running within a couple of hours and then require very little support from us. Having said that, we routinely check in with our customers about their experience, to solicit feedback on our planned features and to hear their requests for new features. Our customers are our best product managers! In addition to our US team we have an offshore development team in India. That company, Analysts, follows the agile methodology for development which makes it easy to track progress and re-prioritize when necessary. 2)We founded the company in 2014 with the goal of creating a marketplace where marketing teams could find the products they need and vendors could connect with potential prospects. We did almost a year of market validation and during that time found that though finding products was a challenge, the bigger issue was managing the technology that companies already had. We made a pivot and focused on technology management. Since then, our biggest challenge has been obtaining the capital we need to grow the business. We’ve now reached the stage where we have the key proof points we need to solicit capital and scale —product market fit, a sensible pricing model and the right platform to address market requirements. We now need sales personnel to capitalize on the opportunity in front of us. 3. In some respects, we were slightly ahead of the market and as such it was necessary to invest time in market education. We’ve published two workbooks detailing the steps to managing marketing technology, both of which can be downloaded from our website, our CEO is a monthly columnist for a marketing publication, CMSWire, and regularly speaks at industry conferences. She is speaking at the two leading Martech conferences in September, The MarTech Conference and MOPsCON.

Our revenues for 2021 were $155K. In terms of runway, just looking at the money raised to date, we have just under a year of runway. That doesn’t take into account new revenue from our growing pipeline. Our goal with this raise is to get to $1M and as you can see we are some way off from that. We will move on to raise off the Wefunder platform. We do see VC funding as an option down the road when we can demonstrate significant qtr over qtr growth. To do that, requires hiring sales personnel (use of proceeds for this raise). Sheryl and I have both raised VC funding in the past. With regard to competition, no one is doing what we do at the Enterprise level. There are a number of entrants targeting the SMB market (MarTech Guru, MarTech Base for example), we tend to compete with spreadsheets (which don’t lend themselves to large complex technology stacks), occasionally we compete against SaaS asset management platforms of which there are many. These platforms are cost and license management systems for procurement and IT. We see them in accounts when IT is involved in the purchasing decision. With regard to long term goals, our mission is to become the technology management platform across the entire enterprise. This is a multi-$B opportunity. Having said that, there are a number of natural partnerships that would strengthen our position in pursuing this goal but it is too early to be more specific about them.","author_name":"Anita Brearton","votes":0,"created_at":"2022-02-23T21:19:47Z"}]},{"id":183034,"entity_id":"wefunder:comment:183034","question":"I wanted to invest a whole lot but as said by “Rajesh” you increased the valuation from $3.6 Million to $10 Million which is preventing me from investing a whole lot of money.
