Growth is a fusion of creativity and analysis. It combines innovative ideas with data-driven insights. However, sustainable growth stems from an exceptional product or service. That's the foundation—growth is the catalyst that amplifies something truly special.
We're committed to this principle. If you believe that you’ve created something great and are passionate about its potential, we look forward to the opportunity to partner with you.
After founding and growing one of the first social networks (hi5 with 200 million users) and a demand generation agency (Adlogica) in the last two decades, I came to a realization: Scaling sustainable growth is essential to turn great products into great businesses.
However, like a muscle, it needs to be nourished and strengthened. I have experienced the challenges of scaling growth firsthand with my own companies and saw how it impacted many businesses around me. Marketers were great at uncovering new channels, identifying unique audiences, and personalizing messages. But they often were missing the right data to fully prove what was working. The revenue functions—sales, marketing, finance, and customer success—were usually siloed, making revenue attribution almost impossible.
Our team set out to solve this challenge for marketers. We aimed to create a revenue attribution platform that would enable marketers to unify disparate data sources, deobfuscate the buyer’s journey, and optimize marketing performance. More importantly, we wanted our platform to be easy to set up and use as we had seen far too many marketers fail because their toolsets and processes did not allow them to make informed decisions with the best data.
The Sona Growth Platform, named after the Sanskrit word for gold, would change that and become the gold standard for revenue attribution.
First, Sona does not require complicated setups or prolonged integrations. Everything is managed by the Sona team in as little as a few hours. Second, Sona goes far beyond just standard dashboards with vanity metrics. Dashboards are instead configured to get into the meaningful metrics (not simply vanity metrics) where businesses can be evaluated in an authentic manner, and solve problems in a way that drives the business forward. Sona aims to paint a more accurate picture of the truth and allow internal experts to make the best decisions with the highest quality data. Third, Sona won’t contain superfluous features. It will be lightweight and do one thing extremely well: track precisely how every dollar of investment is performing.
We believe that a successful growth trajectory at scale requires a well-orchestrated strategy; coordinated execution; unified and synchronized growth data; and integrations with go-to-market tools. There’s a lot that needs to come together, and we will be your partner to help you in this journey.
Sona is the revenue attribution platform that I wish I had as a young entrepreneur, and it’s the platform that every revenue leader should have in their tech stack to unlock sustainable growth.
