How to Put an End to Inaccurate Interpretation of Customer Data?

At the time of this announcement, Lynn spoke to MarTech Series about his vision for the CDP market.

Lynn said, “Brands have mass amounts of customer data at their fingertips, but when they try to gather insights on individual customers, they end up with an inaccurate interpretation. This is because the data is siloed and fragmented with no single unifying key that paints a holistic picture of the customer. Marketers are beginning to understand that simply having the data isn’t enough — they need to invest in best-of-breed solutions like Amperity. Only then will they be able to realize a 360-degree view of their customers and deliver the personalized journey consumers have come to expect. The results Amperity customers like TGI Friday’s, GAP, Alaska, Wynn and many others are realizing are unparalleled and we expect this trend to continue.

“Our industry is filled with data-driven companies, but occasionally you encounter one with the vision, the talent, and the unique technology to transform the way the world’s largest brands do business — that’s Amperity,” said Girotto.

Lynn added, “The fact that Amperity’s platform has been around for just 18 months and has been able to attract brands like GAP, Lucky Brand, TGI Fridays, Alaska Airlines, Wynn, and more says everything you need to know about Amperity — and that’s just scratching the surface. The results these brands are deriving are setting a new standard for companies looking to truly know their customers and transform their experience. I am excited to join Amperity on their mission to empower brands with a modern platform that solves for disparate, inaccurate, and splintered customer data and that, for the first time, delivers a unified view of their customers.”

“We embarked on a search for top talent to fuel our marketing efforts during this momentous time in our company and market — and we found it,” said Kabir Shahani, CEO and co-founder, Amperity.

Kabir added, “Lynn not only has senior experience leading marketing and brand teams at iconic companies — she has the strategic know-how to take our hyper growth company to new heights while helping us better serve our customers. The opportunity to transform marketing and CX for consumer brands is massive, and we’re in a race to reach and educate stakeholders that are ready for our transformational capabilities.
