“Dennis’ experience makes him the ideal person to guide our organization at a pivotal time in our company’s history,” said Tom Heiser, Acoustic Chairman. “We are thrilled to have Dennis join, and I’m excited about his vision for continuing to accelerate Acoustic’s innovation and to help our customers make meaningful connections with their audiences.”

After separating from IBM in July 2019 to form a stand-alone company, Acoustic has continued to invest in creating the modern integrated platform that marketers need to achieve measurable results and to form tangible, humanity-infused connections with their core audiences. Self will lead Acoustic through the next phase of its evolution as the largest independent, full-scale marketing cloud: a significant task that will further champion Acoustic’s competitive differentiator as the only platform in its category entirely focused on serving marketers. Self’s experiences across high-growth and customer-centric companies are exceptionally aligned with the position Acoustic has quickly established in the marketing technology sector.
