What a Week!
Thursday, August 21st, 2008
What a great week for all of us at magnify360! Last Tuesday we announced that magnify360 closed its first round of financing from MHS Capital as well as from some of the original investors behind successes, like BlueLithium (Yahoo!), Right Media and BetterPPC. Read the press release.
Congrats to the team!
A little history on magnify360. The Company was founded in 2004 by Olivier Chaine. With the dedication of few of the original team members here, he bootstrapped the company to profitability within two short year, opened another office in Shanghai, China and attracted the likes of clients, including Citrix Systems, Intuit, Service Magic (IAC), HSBC Bank, Packet8, Continental Warranty and other industry leaders. Might I add, our very first clients are still with us today.
The financing will predominantly focus on recruiting—we are growing fast-fast-fast. All of our available positions are here. Take a look, polish your resume and send it on in. We’re on the hunt for bright, creative and quick minds.
The media coverage of our announcement was tremendous. magnify360 was featured in:
VentureBeat (BIG thank you to Matt Marshall)
The blog of Ben Kuo, voice of SoCalTech (Thank you Ben!)
The Smart Show (contributed by Fransisco Dao of the FastCompany blog)
TechCrunchIT (What an honor! Thank you Cameron!)
…and many many other fantastic & well-respected outlets. Thanks to everyone, who covered the announcement. All can be viewed on the News section of www.magnify360.com.
While all of this was going on, Olivier was flying around the country delivering speeches at the Online Marketing Summit Summer Tour…Seattle, Denver, Atlanta…not to mention meetings in San Fransisco and back here in LA and our exhibit this week at San Jose’s Search Engine Strategies conference.
In between flights on layovers and in between meetings in the car, he was on the phone taking interviews. You see…Olivier doesn’t sleep. He’s an optimization machine.
