Mention Me - referral marketing made easy

by Startacus Admin
London-based startup Mention Me helps businesses to turn customers into engines for business growth via its innovative Referral Engineering® platform.
Pushing your brand to new customers and getting it known and recognised is one of the hardest parts of starting or growing a business. Increasingly common e-commerce businesses that have no physical presence can’t rely on footfall, on people just popping in on their way past - something that even physical shops experience less and less as our society becomes busier and we tell ourselves more frequently that we don’t have time - and it’s vital for them to be able to get word of their existence to online shoppers. But being active on social media and buying banner ads here and there isn’t enough.
London-based customer advocacy startup Mention Me has created a platform through which businesses can increase customer acquisition, drive growth, and increase revenue. The startup currently works with over 450 brands, using unique and sophisticated data analysis to fuel sustainable growth through referral marketing and customer retention.
To date, the startup has delivered over 4 million referrals, totalling more than £1 billion in revenue. The platform integrates into the client’s systems to engage customers through targeted content, encouraging, incentivising, and rewarding actions such as referring friends. Easily create offers and discounts for these actions and keep an eye on the detailed, actionable insights delivered through the dashboard, showing you exactly what is working and how well it’s working.
Mention Me was founded in 2013, and has unsurprisingly raised funding in the past, including a $7 million round in 2018, but now in January 2022, the startup has announced that it has secured a huge £25 million Series B round to further develop its technology and to expand into the US.
