A strategic marketing agency for growth-stage B2B tech startups

About Us
We don’t just brainstorm ideas. We roll up our sleeves and make them happen.

Plans for your strengths
There’s a reason why “salient” is in our name — because we identify the most striking, most important, most unique features of your business and use them to create B2B marketing strategies that drive your brand forward.

Marketing from every angle
Our senior marketers specialize in everything from digital marketing to executive visibility, product marketing, content marketing, demand generation, competitive intelligence, executive thought leadership, and more.

Unmatched B2B tech expertise
Whether your business focuses on adtech, edtech, fintech, retailtech, martech, ecommerce, or another innovative B2B tech sphere, we have a deep understanding of the nuances that can make or break your marketing success.

Unparalleled experience
Our strategic marketers have nearly 200 combined years of experience. We’ve worked on both sides of B2B tech — in startups and at agencies that market them. Plus, we're fully remote so we can hire the best in the world.

Solutions for every stage
Some of our clients have no in-house marketers. Some have a small overloaded staff. Some have junior marketers who need to “learn how to fish.” We have frameworks and resources to be an all-in partner for all growth stages.

A focus on business goals
True B2B marketing success is greater than the sum of its parts. A one-time media hit or a single product launch isn’t enough. We create holistic, scalable strategies that tie back to clients’ specific business objectives.
