It is mainly tapping the US and UK markets. The startup claims that it helps brands plan, research, and create content in a fifth of the time it normally takes and reduces costs by up to 90%.
“The pandemic spurred rapid digitization across businesses, with a greater emphasis being placed on digital marketing,” said Scalenut’s co-founder Mayank Jain.
He said that after spending huge amounts of money on paid advertising for growth, brands have now realized that it is not sustainable in the long run and hence, focused on organic marketing to grow in a sustainable manner.
“In order to increase organic growth, SEO and content marketing teams juggle multiple tools for sound SEO research, content creation, optimization, and performance measurement. Not only is it inefficient, but it also leads to siloed team efforts based on broken insights and incomplete strategy. This is why most businesses struggle to scale content marketing successfully,” he added.
“With Scalenut, we aim to empower the SEO and content teams to put the paddle on their organic marketing efforts from a single platform and help businesses grow sustainably,” said Jain.
