Mina EV
Strategic marketing partnership for an EV startup — from early-stage momentum to acquisition by Allstar (Fleetcor).
From startup momentum to market authority.
The Context.
Mina EV was an ambitious startup operating in the competitive electric vehicle and fleet charging space.
The vision was bold. The product was strong. What they needed was structured marketing leadership to build authority, generate leads and establish credibility quickly in a fast-moving sector.
Anchor & Dash stepped in as strategic marketing partner during Mina's early growth phase.
The Challenge.
Limited internal marketing resource with pressure to move fast
Complex technical offering requiring clear commercial messaging
Need for rapid brand credibility in a crowded EV landscape
Requirement to generate leads while simultaneously building authority
No existing marketing infrastructure to build from
This was about building a marketing engine capable of supporting serious growth — quickly.
The Outcome.
Within a short period Mina EV secured 20+ trade and industry articles, generated significant inbound leads through PR and content, and built genuine authority within core EV and fleet publications.
Most significantly — Mina EV was successfully acquired by Allstar (Fleetcor), affirming the commercial value of the business. That outcome reflects not just product strength, but the brand authority and market positioning built through structured strategy and systems.
"Laura at Anchor & Dash is our entire marketing and PR department. In a very short time she's helped us secure a huge amount of trade and industry PR — 20+ articles across key publications which have generated huge numbers of leads. And that's not to mention the white papers, webinars, photo shoots, triggered CRM campaigns and social media campaigns she's run on our behalf." — Chris Dalrymple, Mina EV
