Falcon Social Announces Georgia Aquarium, Hess and HLK as Clients


Falcon Social, a leading enterprise social media management platform, today announced it has added the Georgia Aquarium, Hess Corporation, an energy company, and full-service digital agency HLK to its rapidly growing and highly diverse client portfolio. The company closed 2014 with 443 percent revenue growth.

Based in New York and Copenhagen and with a worldwide sales and customer success team, Falcon Social provides a fully integrated and scalable social media SaaS (News - Alert) platform. The company recently secured $16 million in Series B funding, announced on March 24.

One of the more than 90 new clients to sign on with Falcon Social since December is the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta. As the western hemisphere's largest aquarium, it has welcomed more than 21 million guests since 2005.

Rosie Judd, Director of Digital Media, Georgia Aquarium, described the challenge of engaging with such an enormous and international visitor base by saying, "Georgia Aquarium's social media presence and engagement has been steadily increasing, creating a need for a social management tool that could help us more ffectively manage our various platforms." She added, "Since using Falcon Social for the past few months, we have been very pleased with how we are able to more efficiently respond to fans, delegate internal tasks, track campaigns and customize listening projects. We are also excited to dive into the Build feature and utilize it for future campaigns."



Headquartered in New York, the Fortune 100 Hess Corporation is a leading independent global energy company. It was recently ranked the number one oil and gas company by Corporate Responsibility Magazine and also recently adopted the Falcon Social platform. In creative communication circles, the Falcon Social platform is now being used by full-service digital agency HLK, which has offices in St. Louis and Denver.

Speaking of the three very different new clients, Falcon Social CEO and Founder Ulrik Bo Larsen said, "This just goes to show how any organization in any industry can benefit from our social media management platform and adapt it to their specific interactions with their clients and market. We are very pleased to have been selected by them." Ulrik added that Falcon Social is expanding both its New York City and Copenhagen offices in 2015. He said, "Now that we have our Series B funding, we can continue to improve upon our product and services. We've already come so far, and can now step it up to a whole new level."
