John Sculley, Former Apple CEO and Co-Founder of Zeta Global, joins Cheddar to discuss a new funding round done by Zeta Global. The company is now estimated to be worth $1.3 billion, after raising $140 billion in August.
Sculley talks about what Zeta Global is looking for when it comes to acquisitions. Since 2007, the firm has bought almost a dozen companies, and now potential targets are coming to the company directly. Sculley says Zeta's growth rate is almost 40% each year, and it's very profitable. He believes smaller companies want to be advised by the cloud marketing company.
Zeta Global serves about 70% of the Fortune 500 companies.
The company's goal is to get bigger at a fast pace and continue growing. Sculley talks about the marketing duopoly of Google and Facebook, and why the two tech companies have had such success in the marketing world.
