Remind launched in 2011 as a free product for teachers to communicate with students and parents outside of the classroom. The company began to monetize operations six years later, selling to school and district administrations.
Over the past year, Remind has pulled cross-functional teams together to focus on revenue, as well as the product's impact on students. The company has started to reach out into larger school districts and has ramped up outbound marketing efforts accordingly.
"With LeanData Routing, we've gotten time to first touch down from 3-4 days to 1-2 hours. That is incredibly meaningful. Administrators are busy, and if you don't catch them within a certain time span, you may lose them forever."
-Arjun Naskar, Head of B2B Marketing
