Social media management app Postling has achieved a measure of startup success, rethinking its user base and closing a $350,000 angel round, all within just a few months.
A member of Philadelphia-based accelerator DreamIt Venture’s fall 2009 class, Postling helps small businesses navigate the social web and manage their brands’ presence online. The product is a simple-to-use, all-in-one dashboard that rounds up the usual APIs. Users can even manage multiple brands from one account.
The company soon plans to add a real-time tracking feature, according to Co-founder Dave Lifson. “We’ve done a partnership with Collecta where local businesses will look at search terms and see any mention of those results in social media, blogs, mainstream media… we’re tying together the results to create a steady stream, and with a single click of a button, you can tweet it, comment on it, reblog it. It’s an amazing curation engine. No one is doing anything like this.”
Lifson also revealed that one week later, Postling will launch an RSS feed reader, a homegrown product they’ve built along the same lines and with the same featues using using XMPP . “We want to solve problems for people we really care about – small businesses,” Lifson said. “The number one thing they want is to know what people are saying about them online right away.”
In addition to real-time technologies, Postling hopes to integrate geolocation data — increasingly vital to small and local businesses — in the near future.
The differentiating factor between Postling and its competitors is that, instead of peddling their wares to marketing agencies, the Postling team has recently decided to cut out the middleman and give the product directly to small businesses who wish to take control of their own social media marketing. This decision, said Lifson, is a large part of what helped them get the funding they needed — and get it quickly.
Funding via AngelList
Hot on the heels of a $150K friends and family round earlier this year, the team became the second-ever startup to be funded by
AngelList, a VentureHacks-founded team of investors that also found funding for a Y Combinator stealth-mode team a few weeks ago.
Here’s how AngelList works: Startups fill out applications; if one makes the cut, the application is circulated among the angel investors involved, and e-mail introductions are made between interested parties. In the case of Postling, several introductions were also made at South by Southwest Interactive in Austin last month. The result was a cool $200,000 round of funding secured in a few meetings held over the course of six days.
The all-star team of investors for this round include Dave McClure, who invested in Mint (
).com; Chris Yeh, who invested in PBWorks; Paige Craig, who invested in Plancast; David Rose, who invested in Gowalla (); and Gary Vaynerchuk, who founded Wine Library TV.
So, how did they do it? With a team that included two Etsy co-founders, the company’s personnel foundation was solid. The product was marketed on a freemium basis, which means Postling had a revenue stream out of the gate — something investors generally like to hear.
And when the team realized they were competing in a crowded space, they gave their product a different spin — working with small businesses rather than ad agencies — to ensure Postling would stand out in the market
