Monday, June 29, 2015Company Profile | Follow Company
Vancouver, BC, June 29, 2015--(T-Net)--Unbounce announced today it has acquired its first company, Rooster Engagement Tools.
The company's mission is to empower businesses to deliver better marketing experiences, and the Rooster acquisition directly supports this, according to the company.
Rooster develops tools to help marketers better target web users and reduce website abandonment.
Rooster's “exit-intent” and targeted messaging creates new ways for marketers to optimize their campaigns.
Unbonce reported that it had already been using Rooster on their own campaigns and realized how similar our two companies were from a culture, passion and mission standpoint.
Once this was discovered, the company reported that conversations began around what things would look like if the two company's joined forces; would an acquisition be a natural fit?
“For us, this is an opportunity to team up with a company that shares our passion for online marketing and conversion optimization, and can make our technology available to a wider audience of marketers,” said Rooster co-founder Jeremy Wallace.
Rooster's technology will now reside at Unbounce headquarters, and three new members will be joining Unbounce:
