Engagement Days, Months, Uncertain Real-time, based on actual Purchase
Data and Analytics Limited/ lot’s of unknowns - “Actual” Buyer vs. “Looker”- Real Purchase drivers

Vendors and Consumers are not receiving “Value”
Traditional Marketing is “Broken”
Consumers “Know”
What they want to buy Why they are going to buy When they will buy
Yet, “Dont know their value”
Vendors “Think They Know”
Who to sell to How to “market“ to highly targeted users
What drives consumer behavior
Yet, “Are wrong 98% of the time”
