explanation
Less formally, let me explain that you must explicitly license the rights to the material according to our licensing, using the CC-BY-SA  and the GNU  licenses, as explained in WP:COPYRIGHT and WP:Donating copyrighted materials; be aware that these licenses  give everyone in the world an irrevocable license to reuse and alter the material, even for commercial purposes.. Do it exactly as outlined above.

But a Wikipedia article needs to be written like an encyclopedia article, not a press release--it must not give reasons or instructions for using the service, or extensively discuss the qualifications of the people leading the organization in any detail, Rather, it must talk about what the organization has  accomplished. For this material, even if you own the copyright and are willing to give us permission according to WP:DCM, the tone is not be encyclopedic and the material is not suitable. Thus, there is in my opinion little purpose in giving permission; it will be necessary to rewrite the material so extensively, that you might as well start over. (And my opinion is based on many years here helping people write articles just like yours.)

Include only material that would be of interest to a general reader coming across the mention of the subject and wanting the sort of information that would be found in an encyclopedia. Do not include material that would be of interest only to prospective clients --that sort of content is considered promotional. Do not think in terms of what you wish to communicate to the public, but an uninvolved person not particularly in the market for such a service might wish to know. And keep in mind that the goal of an encyclopedia is to say things in a concise manner, which is not the style of  press releases or  web sites, which are usually more expansive.

Additionally, a WP article need references providing substantial coverage from  3rd party independent published reliable sources, print or online, but not blogs or press releases, or material derived from press releases. The usual sources for articles like yours' is substantial published reviews of the site in major independent trade magazines. The article will not be accepted without such references.

One more thing, and it's important: since the name you have used includes or refers to the subject of the article, you must choose another username. As explained in WP:USER, only individuals may edit. When you have a username that is or includes the name of your organization, you imply that you are editing officially, and have a superior right to edit the page. But that is not the way WP works--all editors are considered equal--and your contributions like those of any editor must be justified by sources. I'm sure you do not intend to give such impression, but that's why we have the rule. Therefore, please choose another name. On that user   page,  you should disclose your conflict of interest.
