With more channels to manage and more content creation requirements than ever before, it is ContentCal’s ability to make the entire content marketing process simple that fuels our growth. I’m thankful for all the support we’ve had to date from our customers and investors, alongside the hard work from our team, and look forward to continuing to grow the business with this new investment.”

ContentCal was launched in 2014 when Packham saw a gap in the market to significantly improve the social media content creation and publishing processes for businesses who didn’t have or couldn’t afford the expertise in-house, through software and automation.

ContentCal’s products allow businesses to centralise and automate content ideation, creation, publishing and reporting across their social channels, blogs, internal communications and advertising platforms, while integrating with 1,500 other business applications, helping them to balance the requirement to publish more content than ever before with the need for quality content creation.
