Email Marketing Manager – Austin, TX
“Like most great software companies, Promo Labs was started by a small group of forward-thinking entrepreneurs who needed a better way to run their own business. Based on their experience building the most successful company in the promotional products industry, the team at Promo Labs is launching a new line of apps to help sales professionals run their business. Well funded by Austin Ventures and Silverton Partners, Promo Labs’ products will provide sales professionals the marketing, sales, and back office tools required to compete in the $20 billion promotional products market.
