How Hornetsecurity Engaged With 100k Prospects With Cognism

We are excited to launch a new case study from one of our valued customers. Hornetsecurity is the leading email cloud security service for businesses. Founded in 2007 in Hanover, Germany, it has since expanded, recently opening an office in Pittsburgh, USA.

With around 200 employees, Hornetsecurity is represented globally at 10 locations and operates in more than 30 countries through its international distribution network. Its services (which include spam and malware filters, advanced threat protection and email encryption and archiving) are used by approximately 45,000 customers globally.

We interviewed Jeff Locke, North American Operations Team Leader at Hornetsecurity’s Pittsburgh office. He told us about the lead generation challenges that his company faced and how Cognism was the perfect solution to overcome them.

We have produced a case study based on Jeff’s interview, which supplies more detail about how Hornetsecurity used Cognism to:

  • Find thousands of new prospects in niche target markets
  • Launch perfectly-timed, multi-step email marketing campaigns
  • Open up conversations with relevant buyers and build brand awareness
  • Convert high-value leads into sales, generating new business revenue
