Wildfire Announces New Social Marketing Suite!

It’s time for a big announcement! Wildfire is excited to introduce our brand new Social Marketing Suite, an all-in-one solution for marketers to grow, engage, and monetize customers using social media. Our new Social Marketing Suite provides best-in-class social promotion software, simple yet robust Facebook page management, social messaging, and sophisticated real-time analytics. Several major brands already use our Suite to manage their social properties including the Facebook marketing team, Electronic Arts, and Lady Gaga.



We talk to hundreds of marketers every week and we hear that same concerns over and again when it comes to social marketing:

  • social marketing is complicated, there are so many different tools; why can’t I have everything I need in one easy place?

  • I need results! How can I generate measurable, meaningful results?

  • How do I know if I am doing well? I need to be able to benchmark against my competitors and my industry.

We’ve spent the past year working on a product that specifically addresses these concerns and are excited to officially unveil today what we believe will be the gold standard in social media marketing software.

We’re very excited about the early interest in our suite. Facebook’s marketing team has chosen to use Wildfire’s new suite to manage ten different fan pages; Electronic Arts and Virgin Atlantic are also using us to manage multiple social properties and we’re already getting great feedback from them:

“We have used Wildfire for marketing campaigns in the past and were very impressed. With the release of Wildfire's new Social Marketing Suite we are looking forward to going way beyond campaign management. It's a powerful, easy-to-use tool for social marketing and we’ve seen great results." Kyle Thorne, Social Relations Manager at Virgin Atlantic

“At EA SPORTS, we use social media as another platform to connect with our passionate fan base. Wildfire has helped us to deliver engaging, new experiences that create deeper relationships with our consumers.” Craig Malanka, Director Digital Communications

So what exactly is Social Marketing Suite, bit by bit? Here's the breakdown:

Wildfire Gets a New Crib!


Almost exactly one year ago, we excitedly announced our move into a real "cool kid" office, complete with an elevator and real conference rooms! When our then 40 person team walked into the space at 167 Hamilton Avenue (in Palo Alto, CA) everyone's mouths dropped and nobody thought we'd ever fill it. Ever.

One short year later, there are 120 of us, and our weekly all-hands team meeting is an exercise in spatial reasoning. It's time to move! We're so excited to announce that come Monday, June 20th, the official Wildfire HQ will be at 1600 Seaport Blvd, in Redwood City, CA! Coincidentally, our move lines right up with Facebook's relocation to Menlo Park from their former headquarters on California Avenue in Palo Alto, so while we're neighbors now, we'll be even closer after the move!



In addition to being in good company, we're amped about our new digs— our new home has a world-class 38K square foot gym, a rock climbing wall, an Olympic size pool, and 2 baseball diamonds! This is, *of course*, in addition to the on-site cafeteria, spa, indoor and outdoor volleyball, and NBA regulation basketball court. Needless to say, our team is abuzz with excitement.


So, if you're on the market for a job with benefits (the professional version of a friend with benefits) where you can play basketball, have swimming contests, work up a sweat in the gym, and climb walls, Wildfire is it. Naturally, if you're also looking for an exciting career in a fast-moving (and obviously aggressively growing) social media tech company where you'll be challenged and exhilarated daily, that's a plus too! Check out open positions here.


If you find yourself in the Redwood City/Shores area, give us a shout! We love visitors! Holler at twitter.com/wildfireapp or on our Facebook page!
