- Leslie Ferry
VP Marketing

While I have worked with numerous marketing and sales professionals over 30 years in the technology industry, the Embrase team is clearly in a class of their own. Their assistance in positioning, channel development and overall marketing support were instrumental in both our launch and the funding of our company. I cannot recommend their services enough to firms in need of marketing and sales assistance.

- Irv Shapiro
CEO

Despite our rapid growth, we sometimes struggled to present and position the company in a way simple enough for our sales people to use repeatedly, and in a format that our audiences would quickly understand our value proposition. Embrase guided us through a straightforward process that quickly resulted in a critical refinement of our offer and market positioning. A must-do exercise for all companies in high-growth industries.

- Carl Holmquist
President

With deep domain knowledge matched to solid marketing expertise, the Embrase team has injected fresh ideas into our business as we focus on growth and expansion into new markets

Embrase is a can-do firm. Shirt sleeves are rolled up and they work quickly to crack the nut on tough problems. Refreshing.

Peter Diedrich

What a pleasure to work with Embrase. They helped us identify and vet potential partners for our business. They are fast and to the point.

Alejandro Bitar
President

It is difficult to put into words the value Embrase have provided to me and my team. Our vision was to create a relevant, latest technology IP provider business from the ground up to service Australia & New Zealand. An ambitious task indeed, however, with the market intelligence and go to market strategies developed by Embrase, we have been able achieve outstanding results. I have found the entire process has given us the confidence to go beyond our initial goals with renewed enthusiasm. We fully intend to continue working with the team at Embrase, on a long term basis, to fully extract the real value these guys bring to the table. Highly recommend others do the same!

- Steve McLean
CEO & Founder

We knew SmartAction was delivering something special in the customer interaction arena, but we had struggled to present our story in a way that prospects could clearly understand where we fit. Embrase's deep industry knowledge, combined with their focus on creating concise positioning, enabled us to quickly take a more focused approach to the market -- and to improve on how we position ourselves. From day one with Embrase, we knew we were working with someone who could rapidly understand our offer, and address our challenges.

- Norm Pensky
VP Sales & Marketing

From start to finish, interactions with the Embrase team were simple, clear, direct and motivating. It would be a pleasure to work together again soon.

Frédéric Le Bouar
Marketing Director

Embrase has helped us with our strategy at different times over the past few years, and in between they are essentially our outsourced marketing team. It is great to have quality resources available as we need them.
