Advertising & MarketingBeginning with only 5 employees, eCoast was founded in Portsmouth, NH in 2000. We began as an outsourced demand generation vendor that focused specifically on the networking industry. The company consistently expanded its client base and drove industry trends by continuously introducing new marketing, sales, and channel support programs. In the fall of 2009, eCoast was acquired by the Maryland-based equity partners Slate Capital Group and New Markets Venture Partners. They saw significant value in the company’s steady growth, extensive blue-chip technology clients, and positioning within the industry as the premier provider of high value outsourced lead generation.
