Publicising EasyDMARC's Funding to a Global Audience

EasyDMARC, a cloud-native B2B SaaS company that solves email security and deliverability problems in just a few clicks, turned to Resonance to publicise its US$20M Series A funding round.

The raise marked a significant step in EasyDMARC’s journey towards global expansion in the email security market. Resonance's task was to ensure that this funding news resonated on an international scale.

Challenge

EasyDMARC, which is headquartered in Armenia, had limited overseas presence so it relies heavily on marketing strategies to drive demand, both directly to customers and indirectly through channel partners. Its offering, while powerful, is highly technical, presenting the challenge of making niche technology appealing and relevant to a broader, more mainstream audience.

The funding round represented a prime opportunity to elevate EasyDMARC’s profile and gain recognition across various sectors, spanning business and technology.

Objectives

The primary objectives were to increase global awareness of EasyDMARC, both as a leader in email security and as a rapidly scaling tech company, through media coverage across key regions: the United States, UK, DACH (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), Spain, and ANZ (Australia and New Zealand).

The goal was to position EasyDMARC at the forefront of the cybersecurity sector while highlighting the significance of the Series A round across business, tech, security, and channel publications.

Strategy

Resonance leveraged the funding announcement as a platform to tell the broader story of EasyDMARC’s platform, and showcase its credentials that led to the significant raise.

The PR strategy was crafted to not only elevate EasyDMARC's reputation in the cybersecurity landscape but also to create a compelling narrative that would resonate with potential customers and partners alike.

By targeting media outlets with a readership that included both direct customers and channel partners, Resonance sought to maximise the impact of the announcement. We didn't want to get coverage for the sake of coverage, but use it to drive demand.

Results

Through a targeted and strategic media outreach, Resonance succeeded in amplifying EasyDMARC’s Series A announcement to a global audience.
