The Next Chapter of DivvyHQ
On behalf of the entire DivvyHQ team, I’d like to say thank you to all who have supported us throughout the early days of our little start-up. Since our official launch back in September 2011 at the first Content Marketing World, we’ve been so blessed and excited to see our tool fill a big need and eliminate much of the pain that has been forcibly tolerated by so many content practitioners across the globe. We’ve learned a ton from industry colleagues, our advisors and our incredible customer base who fuel the evolution of our application everyday.
Bumps in the Road
The past two years have not been without challenges. Growing a software company from the ground up, in a completely new software category, is fracken hard (thanks @Robert_Rose). The digital/content marketing landscape is like the wild wild west. Everyone is trying to figure out how to navigate this new world and everyone needs a tool that can bend and mold to their unique situation. We always hoped that as long as we listened hard, responded quickly and kept our heads on straight, good things would come.
Good Things Are Upon Us
I would like to take this opportunity to officially announce that DivvyHQ has received funding from Dundee Venture Capital and Digital Sandbox KC to ramp up every aspect of our business. We are very excited about how these partnerships will allows us to build a rock-star team that will accelerate the development of our application and provide your content team with a more robust and customizable set of tools.
The Next Chapter of DivvyHQ
To summarize what is to come, let me just say this…We’ve always positioned ourselves as the spreadsheet-free, editorial calendar application. If you’ve used DivvyHQ, you know we’re much more than that. Perhaps we’ve undersold ourselves. That’s about to change.
With a solid foundation in place, we look forward to introducing you to the new DivvyHQ, a growing company with a targeted focus on building the best tool for high-volume content teams. No spreadsheet is safe. Either are the rest of your planning and collaboration tools, for that matter.
Sidenote: In September (2013), we’re heading back to Content Marketing World and giving attendees the first introduction to the new DivvyHQ. If you’d like to be a part of it and attend the best marketing conference out there, you can use promo code “DIVVYHQ” to get a $100 discount on your registration.
Lastly, we’d love to keep you updated on our growth and the evolution of our platform. If that is of interest to you, please subscribe to our blog (right side bar).
