DALLAS - Marylandian -- Sureshot, a marketing technology and integrations company, has announced that it is opening a funding round to meet the fast-growing demand for its martech solutions and services. The announcement comes at an exciting time for the company, which recently experienced 250 percent year-over-year sales growth in Q1, as well as the addition of Chris Petko, a sales and customer experience (CX) expert, as the new Vice President of Revenue.

The new round of funding will be used to fuel growth initiatives, including product development and new sales and customer service hires at Sureshot's headquarters in Dallas, and satellite offices in the US and Canada. Leading Sureshot's Funding Round to date is a $2 million dollar investment from Hybrid Capital.

We have great solutions, but we also have these amazing CX teams with deep marketing expertise that work with our customers to solve their marketing problems.
