SHOPT | Overview
With countless programs, retailers, brands and budgets, shopper marketing can be extremely difficult to plan and manage. Despite the complexity, the practice is still being driven by a variety of offline tools. The result? Hours spent on non-productive administrative tasks with little time left to analyze and innovate. With lack of technology enablement impacting performance, Shopper Marketing Optimization (SMO) has become critical to CPG revenue growth.

ActionPack | Overview
Online retailers do everything in their power to get their visitors to click the buy button, but after the click, the attention to customer experience falls flat. Customers receive their purchase in a brown shipping box with a static black-and-white packing slip. Recognizing that unboxing is a critical touch point within the online purchase journey, Cierant developed ActionPack—actionable packing inserts that individually engage customers in-the-pack.

Healthcare communications managers may have once measured their performance by their ability to get member communications out quickly, compliantly and affordably, but these performance benchmarks are no longer proving adequate. The Individual market created a retail like healthcare experience where payers have to vie for consumer attention and loyalty by demonstrating differentiated value. This is compounded by liquid consumer expectations, where consumers are
taking best-in-class customer experiences and comparing them to all other brand interactions, regardless of industry or product category.
