SKEEPERS Acquires MyFeelBack and Mediatech-CX; Launches the Ultimate Low-Code, Omnichannel Customer Feedback Platform, CX Management

SKEEPERS

NEW YORK, NY & BOSTON, MA – August 31, 2021 – The SKEEPERS Group, provider of people-smart SaaS solutions that enable brands to generate value for and from their customers, has launched a new addition to its product suite, CX Management. The cutting-edge low-code platform – a combination of recently acquired international startups MyFeelBack and Mediatech-CX – streamlines the customer feedback process for brands to inform data-driven decision-making. CX Management is a plugin solution that collects customer experience data in measurable and actionable ways. The platform is designed to collect customer feedback via personalized online surveys, strategically distributed at various aspects of the customer journey on the delivery channel that best suits a brand’s audience (website, mobile app, SMS, email, chatbots, etc.). The questionnaires have a high response rate, with 60% completed on average; twice as high as the average response rate of 33% for customer survey channels. With easy-to-navigate data systems, the platform generates customized reports so brands can identify what areas they are doing well in and what areas they need to improve. In addition to aggregating data from a brand's digital properties, CX Management allows brands to gather customer feedback in-store, post-purchase. For instance, when customers use loyalty cards, customized coupons or receive a receipt by email. The omnichannel approach provides brands with the full scope of the customer experience – offline and online. “This solution addresses the most burning questions brands and marketers have such as why are customers abandoning their cart or why did a potential customer leave the site in under a minute,” said Pascal Lannoo, CMO at SKEEPERS. “CX Management will bridge the gap between a brand’s perceived notion of a customer’s experience versus the reality, which can be boiled down to one question: how loyal are your customers to your brand? Thanks to its Net Promotion Score function, the answer to the question can be quantified.” CX Management easily integrates with a brand’s existing marketing technology ecosystems including ContentSquare, Salesforce and HubSpot. Early adopters of the platform include brands such as Nespresso, L’Oreal, Clarins, MetLife, BRP and Hilti, looking to better serve their online and offline customer experiences. “We were looking for customer insight on specific products to help us from a product development perspective. Thanks to the CX Management platform, we received valuable customer feedback that helped us identify areas of improvement on the product selection through post-purchase surveys. Having this feedback allows us to pivot our efforts in real time to continue to grow our customer base and satisfaction in an impactful way,” said Anna Kaster, International CRM Director, Clarins. The launch of CX Management follows the company’s recent expansion and introduction of its solution TEESTER to the US market, reinforcing SKEEPERS’ broader mission in building products that strengthen the relationship between brands and their customers. For more information, please visit https://www.skeepers.io/. About SKEEPERS SKEEPERS is a fast growing scaleup that provides people-smart SaaS solutions that enable brands to generate value for and from their customers. We help brands build a new balanced relationship to grow in a context where consumers have taken the lead.

EBY - The Authority in Seamless Underwear - Announces $6 Million in Series A Funding and the Launch of their Limited Edition Seamless Luxe Collection

EBY

Women’s empowerment & tech apparel company EBY announces today that they have raised $6M in Series A funding. Co-Founded by entrepreneur Renata M. Black in 2018, EBY is the ‘authority in seamless underwear’ - utilizing uniquely applied no-slip-grip technology to their seamless panties and bralettes. The direct-to-consumer brand also works to enable women to support other women with the one decision they make every morning - the underwear they decide to wear. 10% of proceeds from EBY underwear sales go to the Seven Bar Foundation to empower women through microfinance: small business loans to women in poverty that lead to incredible outcomes. Colt Ventures, a Dallas based investment firm, led the company’s $6M Series A financing. Colt is a diversified firm that is active in biotechnology, oil & gas, technology, consumer/retail, special situations, and real estate. The firm has a long track record of successful exits and has made notable investments in e-commerce food delivery company Deliveroo, online video platform Rumble, and marketing automation platform Eloqua. "Now more than ever, we are excited to invest in a female led company such as EBY that is bursting with market potential and has a notable social mission to support women globally. Just like Colt Ventures, EBY is laser focused on the future. We were highly impressed with Renata’s bold vision and the business she has built to date. We are excited to support her as the company enters its next growth phase.” - Sundeep Agrawal M.D., General Partner EBY’s fast growth has garnered investment from other notable investors including Silicon Valley venture capitalist firm Azure Capital (which boasts a portfolio that comprises of Native Deodorants, Bouqs and Sleep 8), Robert DiRomualdo (Chairman of Ulta Beauty), Ken Goldman (former CFO of Yahoo), and Duncan Neiderauer (former CEO of the New York Stock Exchange). EBY plans to use the funding to open new channels, make key new hires, and expand their influencer marketing efforts to support their rapid growth, which has seen 10,000 5-star customer reviews in under three years. They will be launching several new product lines over the rest of 2021, including their Limited Edition Seamless Luxe Collection, launching today - ultra-comfortable, premium seamless panty and bralette sets ranging from $21-$69. Seamless Luxe pieces will be available in two, limited edition colorways: Sakura - a beautiful hand-painted floral print, and Roseata Fleur - a luxury, lilac-like purple. The print was created in partnership with emerging graphic artist Laura Matson, in keeping with EBY’s mission of empowering women in business. In addition to the Seamless Luxe Collection, EBY will launch additional premium collections, a period underwear, and a mesh collection throughout the rest of the year. Body-inclusive EBY offers seamless underwear in sizes XS-4XL, servicing over 100 million plus-size customers who cannot shop at some of the largest retail stores in the U.S. Its flocking technology acts as a second skin and has garnered EBY with a reputation as a best-in-class seamless product. EBY’s membership program also offers consumers an underwear subscription box with exclusive product and members-only pricing. The company’s core mission is female empowerment - not only through their offerings to their loyal subscribers and shoppers, but also by supporting women in poverty through the power of microfinance. By the end of this year, EBY will have impacted over 15,000 women and children out of poverty into business. “EBY is in a unique place in a competitive market as an all-size inclusive, tech-commerce brand with a social mandate. It’s not just about revenue and growth, it's about impact and creating lasting relationships with our customers.” - Renata M.

Tech cross-border M&A on record pace in First Half of 2021 according to data from Velocity Global and PitchBook

Velocity Global

Deal multiples return to 2019 levels Cross-border software deals skyrocket Cross-Border M&A Monitor: Tech Sector released today Cross-border tech merger and acquisition deals accelerated in the first half of 2021, on a record pace in transactional volume. That data from PitchBook was released today in the Cross-Border M&A Monitor: Tech Sector published by Velocity Global, the leading provider of global employment solutions. The late surge of activity in 2020 continued through the first half of this year with approximately 1,000 cross-border tech deals closed, for an aggregate of $139.9 billion. “The deal multiple increased in the first half of this year and returned to 2019 levels, which indicates investor confidence in global economic recovery,” said Rob Wellner, Velocity Global chief revenue officer. “Increased multiples drive an even greater need for pre-deal preparation and successful integration after close.” Software value already tops 2020 The value of cross-border M&A deals for Software companies in the first six months of 2021 already topped full-year values for 2020 at over $100 billion. “The pandemic accelerated digital transformations, funneling budgets to build or buy the necessary tools,” added Wellner. “The acquirers are tech and non-tech alike, with tech adding to their stack, and non-tech adding to their in-house capabilities.” Pandemic Operations Drive Cross-Border M&A Interest As evidenced by the increase in median deal size in cross-border tech M&A, dealmakers paid up with confidence. Cross-border acquisitions require businesses to navigate a distributed workforce, and the global pandemic prompted companies of all sizes to invest in the proper resources. “Integration will always have complexities like country-specific labor laws and regulations, but companies are more willing than ever to invest in cross-border diversification and leverage tools to manage a distributed workforce,” said Wellner. “Work from home is really no different than work from another country as it relates to workflow and employee engagement.” Download the Cross-Border M&A Monitor: Tech Sector here.
