Blended Sense a media technology company out of Austin TXIn a time where digital communication is an essential part of daily business, we have 2 of the largest drivers of the US economy at risk. Small business owners and the Creative Freelancer.Small Business owners do not have the time, resources, or the know-how to create and produce thedigital assets they need to run their business and communicate with their target audience to thrive in today’s marketplace. Creative Freelancers are isolated and they struggle with customer service, accounting, and project management. This leaves 1 of 2 creatives struggling with cash flow. What we have built is a digital platform called Creative Intelligence. Our technology matches the right creative teams to the right projects and automates all of the pre-and post production logistics to de-risk the relationship between creative pros and small businesses. Our matches are hyper-local and create a recurring relationship between the two. We are one of the only companies that operate on a subscription basis for creative solutions to SMBS. | Seed / Jan 01, 2021 |
