Summary
Marko Marketing Limited is a Liverpool-based tech start-up founded by tech entrepreneur Ben Abernethy in October 2024. The company has developed an affordable, AI-powered marketing platform designed specifically for small businesses that struggle to access effective marketing tools due to budget and resource constraints. The innovative platform consolidates multiple marketing functions into one easy-to-use system, including content creation, social media scheduling, analytics, SEO tools, and email marketing capabilities.
The £35,000 loan supports Marko Marketing’s launch phase, enabling comprehensive product development, marketing activities, and engagement of IT contractors to assist with ongoing software improvements. The funding provides essential working capital for a newly established technology business entering the competitive marketing software market.
“This investment from River Capital is crucial in helping us bring our innovative marketing platform to market. We’ve designed Marko to remove the complexity and high costs associated with effective marketing, making these tools accessible to businesses of all sizes.
