Funding Announcement
Funding rounds are newsworthy events for a startup. However, they don’t come frequently, so it is important to maximize the impact of the announcement.
A funding announcement serves as an opportunity to:
-
Position an early-stage company as a leader within its industry
-
Introduce journalists and the public to the brand
-
Build brand credibility

Testimonial
"As a new technology company, we brought 3Points on to help us build and execute our PR and marketing strategy from scratch. Together, they helped us build our brand. On top of traditional PR, pitching, and external communications, they went above and beyond to help us develop our brand guidelines, our positioning, and how we look and communicate our brand. The team is extremely talented and we are fortunate to have such a great partner and extension of our team, especially as our business continues to grow and evolve."
