SMB Digital Marketing

Since Springbot was founded in 2012, the company established itself as a leading marketing automation platform for small- and medium-sized retailers by providing tools and resources typically only available to large merchants.

It has helped level the playing field for SMBs against the large eCommerce retailers by establishing relationships and platform integrations with SMB focused eCommerce shopping carts such as BigCommerce, Magento, Shopify, and most recently WooCommerce.

And earlier this year, Springbot launched Springbot Exchange, a data co-op created for SMB retailers. Springbot invested significantly in new technology development and partnerships to launch the unique service.

Customers have reported notable success with the first two Springbot Exchange features, Audience Expander and On-site Abandonment, and the company plans additional features for 2019.

“Using the Springbot platform and joining the Springbot Exchange has already made a significant impact on my business. We have seen a 10X return on investment. Springbot has helped me take my business to heights I did not think were possible.”

In an ever-growing and crowded field of SMB eCommerce retailers, it is vital that small business operators use the latest digital marketing technology.

Often, small businesses lack the technical knowledge or time to invest properly into digital marketing.

Springbot tries to bridge that gap by automating many marketing tasks allowing small business owners to focus on product development, customer service, and fulfillment.

This new funding should help the company improve its offerings to better service small and medium-sized online retailers.
