It can often appear that the more companies spend on digital marketing, the less engagement and ROI they get back. Meanwhile, consumer trust in advertising is plummeting, and third-party cookies are rapidly disappearing. Mention Me offers a marketing platform to make it easy and effective for companies to conduct referral marketing.
Referrals are one of the best ways to grow a business and can be the most valuable marketing channel, and the company helps businesses make the most of this channel, supporting referral programs in 16 languages. However, Mention Me's biggest draw is the ability to A/B test, iterate and measure campaigns so that they work best for the cohort they target. The company already has over 450 customers, including FarFetch, Ovo Energy, Ted Baker and ZipCar.
Mention Me's vision to make every brand think advocacy-first, and is supported by its fast-growing partner network. Backed by Octopus Ventures and Eight Roads through recent funding raised, and operating within a market expected to significantly grow in upcoming years, the company is well placed to attempt to reach this goal.

Mention Me applies 4DX (The Four Disciplines of Execution) which helps align everyone in the company to their own "Wildly Important Goal". This ensures that everyone knows what everyone else is working on and helps bring transparency and honest communication about priorities. It means we surface conflict sooner and everyone can see how we're doing against our goals. We also share company performance data regularly (weekly and monthly meetings) so everyone can see.

Responsibility is almost never granted - it's always taken. We love people taking ownership and giving them the autonomy to do their job. In the product side of the business we believe in autonomous product teams who have the skills and resources to follow their own destiny and decide on the scope and ambition of their work as they solve real customer problems.

Our product, design and engineering teams work as cross functional teams, and we give the teams a lot of autonomy to work out what the right problems to go after are - and then solve them in the best way possible. It's certainly not as easy as being given exactly what's needed, but it allows for a lot more variability and the opportunity to solve a problem in the best way possible.

While referral has been around forever and a day, figuring out how referral works in the digital age is a new thing. We're proud we've become the market leader here - but the challenges of trying to figure out what the future of referral looks like mean we can't easily look to what others have done. We have to carve our own path and that means we have challenging work ahead - and a lot to celebrate when we do it well!
