We came to Blue Seedling with a complex challenge – going beyond an eQMS vendor to an AI-powered innovation partner – and they delivered something extraordinary. They crafted a crystal-clear message and a bold, modern new look and feel that immediately resonated with our target audience.
Asi Dayan
VP Marketing, Dot Compliance

Dot Compliance, founded in 2016, is a pioneer in the electronic Quality Management System (eQMS) industry. Built on Salesforce, their platform streamlines complex quality and compliance processes for hundreds of life sciences companies worldwide.

In 2023, Dot Compliance became the first eQMS provider to incorporate generative AI capabilities through their AI agent, Dottie. But they faced a challenge: despite their evolution into an AI-powered compliance company, they were still primarily perceived as just another eQMS provider.

Dot Compliance felt like their brand wasn’t keeping pace with their technological innovation – and they needed a partner that could help them redefine their brand identity. 

How we did it – comprehensive brand transformation

Dot Compliance selected Blue Seedling for our expertise in positioning enterprise B2B companies, deep understanding of AI go-to-market strategy, and proven track record of creating distinctive visual identities for leading brands in the data and AI space.

Blue Seedling conducted a three-month brand infrastructure engagement focused on two key areas:

  1. Positioning and messaging: Through in-depth interviews with leadership and market research, we developed a new narrative for Dot Compliance – including core positioning, messaging blocks, and vision. The process culminated in a day-long workshop in Tel Aviv, where key stakeholders collaborated to synthesize core concepts and align on the new brand story. 
  2. Visual identity: We adapted and modernized Dot Compliance’s visual identity to communicate their data and AI leadership while maintaining existing brand recognition. This included all of the visual building blocks for a world-class brand:
  • A completely redesigned website, including a suite of new website pages showcasing the transformed identity
  • A comprehensive brand book defining brand expressions, color palette, typography, product logos, and artwork guidelines
  • A glow-up for Dottie 🙂 
  • Updated sales collateral including one-pager and sales deck
  • Templates for blog posts, digital ads, customer decks, and more

A transformed brand ready to lead

In just three months, Dot Compliance emerged with a brand identity that perfectly captured their AI-forward mission. The new identity generated immediate enthusiasm among the Dot Compliance team. Early A/B tests showed the new messaging significantly outperforming previous versions with their target audience, validating the strategic direction.

Most importantly, Dot Compliance emerged with something truly unique that will fuel their next stage of growth. 

Blue Seedling didn’t just meet our brief; they helped us create something truly unique that will fuel our next stage of growth.
Asi Dayan
VP Marketing, Dot Compliance

The bottom line: “Blue Seedling are true brand magicians”

The launch of the new website and brand identity garnered rave reviews from customers, prospects, partners, and employees alike. “Blue Seedling are true brand magicians,” says Dayan.

Armed with market-winning positioning, marketing, and visual identity, Dot Compliance is set to continue its mission of revolutionizing quality and compliance for the life sciences as a data- and AI-first innovation partner.

It was a no-brainer for us to partner with Blue Seedling to help us clarify and evolve our brand messaging to be the foundation for the next milestone in our growth trajectory. Despite what seemed like a challenging task with an impossible timeline, Blue Seedling jumped in with energy and enthusiasm and delivered a clear and compelling positioning framework. The Blue Seedling team was a pleasure to work with and found common ground across a wide range of perspectives to deliver something that is resonating with our target audiences.
Genevieve Haldeman
Vice President, Corporate Marketing, Cloudinary

Cloudinary is a unicorn (and centaur) in the Israeli tech scene with a remarkable growth trajectory. Their flagship product, which optimizes images and videos for software developers, defined a category and built a following of over 1.5 million developers over the past decade.

But as with many successful startups-going-on-scaleups, Cloudinary reached a point where they needed to revamp their positioning and messaging in order to achieve their next stage of growth. Over the years, Cloudinary’s portfolio had expanded beyond developer tools and now included solutions for business users, such as digital marketers.

Cloudinary needed a new way to describe what they did better than any other company in the world. And they needed a partner who could help them own their category with world-class positioning – fast.

How we did it – in record time

The positioning leaders at Blue Seedling are experts at distilling a company’s vision and differentiation. And we’ve honed our process with dozens of startups and scaleups, enabling us to provide unmatched time-to-value. “It was a no-brainer for us to partner with Blue Seedling,” said Genevieve Haldeman, Cloudinary’s Vice President of Corporate Marketing.

For a mature market leader with diverse stakeholders such as Cloudinary, it was key to get to know the product and the market – really, really well. We interviewed 50+ stakeholders, including the entire executive leadership team, individual contributors at all levels of the organization, customers, investors, and partners. We also held two in-person positioning workshops in California and Tel Aviv.

In the weeks following, our team developed, refined, and perfected Cloudinary’s new positioning and messaging. As a result, in just 8 weeks, we delivered a comprehensive positioning and messaging platform, including:

  • A new, bold positioning statement
  • Messaging for a dozen different personas
  • Strategic insight on how these can translate for their existing sales and marketing collateral, such as their website

The results

 Cloudinary subsequently ran an A/B test of their homepage, which showed statistically significant improvement in web conversions – an increase by over 50% – with our recommended messaging.

The newly updated positioning and messaging accomplished its goals: preparing Cloudinary for the next stage of growth, educating key stakeholders on Cloudinary’s primary value proposition, and empowering the sales and marketing teams to win more deals.

Netta was very helpful for Panther’s initial marketing push, from strategy and coordination to optimizing our messaging and content. She was a pleasure to work with and I would definitely recommend her to help you push your marketing efforts forward!
Jack Naglieri
Founder & CEO, Panther

Panther, a San Francisco-based startup, developed a security analytics platform to help teams detect and respond to breaches in the cloud. In 2019, they raised a $4.5M Seed round from leading investors Innovation Endeavors and S28 Capital, and was looking to lay out its marketing infrastructure, including positioning, brand, and demand generation, in order to gain initial traction and get to product-market-fit.

Through Blue Seedling’s marketing coaching, Panther successfully built out its initial brand and demand generation engine. Market adoption and a Series A followed in quick succession.


Following their Seed round, Panther hired a content lead and a marketing manager, and had technical team members contribute to marketing efforts, as well. The CEO was leading marketing, but was looking for experienced marketing guidance and leadership to enable him to focus on more specific aspects of positioning, product-market-fit discovery, and sales. He was not ready to hire an in-house CMO or VP Marketing just yet, and instead partnered with Blue Seedling’s Netta Kivils for marketing coaching.

During the engagement, Netta worked with Panther’s marketing team members and guided them through the creation of their first marketing calendar and the buildout of their initial marketing infrastructure. This included building a marketing database of hundreds of leads, setting up an email marketing program, sending out the first email newsletters, and publishing content on Panther’s brand-new blog.


The results: Initial traction leading to rapid growth and a Series A

Panther’s audience and traction gradually expanded through content and email marketing, webinars, and successful marketing partnerships with other companies in the space, such as Snowflake. They signed up fast-growth cloud tech companies such as GitLab, Dropbox, Canva, Figma, and Signifyd. Investors took notice and in September 2020, less than a year after raising its Seed round, Panther announced a $15M Series A led by Lightspeed Venture Partners.

Through Blue Seedling’s marketing coaching, Panther successfully built out its initial brand and demand generation engine. Market adoption and a Series A followed in quick succession.

Moving up the growth ladder

In their first phase of growth, IONIX was propelled to success with their unique attack surface management (ASM) solution. They offered a key differentiator by focusing not only on digital assets that companies were directly connected to, but also indirectly connected to via digital supply chains. 

As more competitors began to also focus their offerings on this category of ASM, IONIX decided to invigorate the brand – both the look and feel and their positioning and messaging. The goal was to further differentiate themselves for their next stage of growth. With a tight deadline of launching in time for RSA in just 8 weeks, IONIX brought on Blue Seedling due to our demonstrated expertise and experience delivering real time-to-value.

How we did it

We followed our tried-and-true positioning and messaging playbook, tailored for IONIX: 

  • Market research and interviews with key stakeholders
  • An in-person positioning workshop
  • Intensive, reiterative work in the following weeks to perfect your new positioning and messaging

Following primary and secondary research, a 1-day in-person workshop in Tel Aviv, and 4 weeks of iterations, IONIX’s updated positioning and messaging is a strong reflection of their differentiation and business value. Blue Seedling also created new marketing and sales collateral, including a new website, in time for a splashy launch at RSA.

The result

IONIX revealed their updated brand at RSA with huge success. The new messaging landed in the market and their unique differentiator helped them stand out, setting IONIX up for the next stage of growth as the winner of their category.

Concurrently, a multichannel integrated marketing campaign created buzz around the holiday and the site launch. This included PR, a promo video, email marketing, and an IRL company-wide party complete with pizza “segments” and microsegmentation-themed cocktails (fully documented for social media, of course).

The results

The perfectly-executed launch of ‘Microsegmentation Day’ on October 6, 2022 (specifically timed to coincide with Cybersecurity Awareness Month) positioned Zero Networks as the leader in the microsegmentation space. 

In the weeks following the launch, they were flooded with demo requests from new leads. And they continue to thrive and build momentum in the microsegmentation market.

Blue Seedling worked with us at Hysolate for four months, while our VP Marketing was on maternity leave. They did a great job both keeping the lights on with existing projects and initiating new projects and managing the team. The Blue Seedling team gets shit done!
Marc Gaffan
CEO, Hysolate

Hysolate, a cybersecurity startup backed by some of the world’s leading investors (including Bessemer Venture Partners, Team8, and Innovation Endeavors), was on an exciting growth trajectory in 2020. When COVID-19 hit, Hysolate experienced unparalleled product and growth opportunities, but also significant go-to-market challenges. Hysolate did not want to lose marketing momentum while their VP Marketing was on maternity leave, and engaged Blue Seedling’s Netta Kivilis as acting VP Marketing to take over their marketing activities and manage their marketing team and resources.

Blue Seedling provided acting VP Marketing services to Hysolate, stepping in during the midst of COVID-19 in 2020 without missing a beat. During the engagement, Blue Seedling deftly navigated the tension between new, unforeseen go-to-market challenges caused by the pandemic, and increased demand for a new product offering thanks to dramatic market shifts like the rise of remote work.


The Whole Story

COVID-19 presented Hysolate with a challenging go-to-market landscape: in-person conferences and events, which drove a significant portion of their new Sales opportunities, were no longer happening, and the company had to find viable alternatives by investing in other marketing channels. On the other hand, the “side effects” of COVID-19, namely remote work and accelerated digital transformation, created exciting product opportunities for Hysolate.

Hysolate wanted to bring a new product to market quickly to address product opportunities created by COVID-19, and figure out an updated go-to-market strategy to hit its growth goals.

Hysolate engaged Blue Seedling’s Netta Kivilis who served as acting VP Marketing, owning all marketing activities: from budgeting and planning, through managing the in-house marketing team and external resources, to partnering with Sales, Product, and Customer Success, and participating in board meetings. During the short engagement, Netta got up to speed quickly, launched several new demand generation campaigns based on ABM and virtual events, and ran a leadership positioning and messaging workshop for the new product.

Following the engagement, with the return of an in-house marketing leader, Hysolate launched its new product offering as planned, and continued to expand worldwide.
