We personalize every customer interaction - that's how Rebuy enriches online stores. Today we have John Erck, Co-Founder and CEO of Rebuy Engine, an e-commerce personalization engine.
John had experience with Shopify and app development. But he wanted to build something new, so he and his co-founder came up with the idea for Rebuy. A personalization and recommendation engine that helps transform an online store from a basic online store into an intelligent, data-driven one.
This engine gives intelligent product recommendations to customers just like the experience big players such as Netflix, YouTube, and Amazon provide to their consumers. According to John, at Rebuy, everybody gets to refine the leader in themselves.
In the first part, he talked about:
* Gratefulness
* Overview of the brand
* Democratizing personalization technology
* Example of Netflix and YouTube
* What led him to Rebuy
* His Shopify experience
* His motivation for Rebuy
Join Ramon Vela and John Erck as they break down the inside story on The Story of a Brand.
