HARNESS THE TRUE POWER OF SOCIAL DATA FOR YOUR BRAND
Unlock your future.
Our vision
EngageSciences was set up to build a platform that would help social media managers deliver measurable return for enterprise marketing departments. The EngageSciences platform enables brands to create exceptional social marketing programs that maximize the lifetime value of fans. Unlocking social data to improve the targeting and segmentation for campaigns across multiple channels, our users will become the CMOs of the future.
Founded in 2010
Believing that social media management systems were weak in true marketing functionality, our founders set out to bring deep enterprise content management and marketing automation knowledge to this new sector.
50 countries
After spending 17 months building the platform, EngageSciences launched in May 2011. Since then we have served clients in over 50 countries, including some of the most innovative brands and agencies around.
300% revenue growth
Rapid growth in the number of customers served has seen EngageSciences post a 300% revenue growth rate in the last 12 months. With offices opening up around the world, 2013 promises much.
