Based in NYC, Antepo offered a software solution for Enterprise Instant Messaging and Presence management. Starting as an unknown in an industry dominated by big names and big budgets,
the Antepo team wanted to establish itself within the emerging "enterprise instant messaging" niche with a multi-faceted, integrated marketing and public relations program within a reasonable budget.
Results:
Resound effectively built broad and consistent awareness of Antepo, putting the company at the forefront of the media’s mind so it would be part of any and all stories pertaining
to its specific market space, along with associated business features. Resound also established Antepo as a thought leader through speaker placement at targeted industry events, analyst relations, and editorial placement of
bylined articles. In 2007, the small, privately held company was acquired by software giant Adobe.
