Monetate Growth Continues to Surge Driven by Online Marketers' Demand for Real-Time Personalization

Monetate, a leading provider of cloud-based personalization technologyfor online marketers, reported Q3 2012 as its strongest quarter to date, as the looming holiday season drove demand for its targeted personalization capabilities.

Monetate’s revenue for the first three quarters of 2012 surpassed the company’s cumulative growth over the previous three years.

The introduction of the firm’s Certified Partner Program, continued international expansion, and increased demand from the travel and financial sectors, helped spur Monetate’s growth in Q3. The company added 30 new enterprise brands in the latest quarter, including Sur La Table, Tommy Hilfiger, and Lee Jeans.

“We think Monetate will be hugely valuable to Sur La Table in three key areas: testing, merchandising, and geotargeting/localization,” said Kevin Ertell, Vice President, ecommerce at Sur La Table. “We’re planning to take advantage of that combination to provide much more relevant merchandising to our customers. And we’ll be able to test multiple campaign variations and try lots of cool stuff without burdening valuable IT resources.”

Using Monetate, marketers have the ability to combine static, historical customer interactions with more immediate situational data, such as device and location information, to better understand their customers and display the content that meets their individual needs. This data can also be “stacked” with external data sets, such as the U.S. Census or real-time weather data, for even more custom marketing opportunities.

“We’re entering the next phase of the Big Data revolution,” said David Brussin, CEO and founder of Monetate. “Marketing based on historical data is no longer a competitive advantage. Utilizing real-time data allows marketers to create an in-the-moment, responsive action on the website so that the customer can find what they need faster, with their preferences and past experiences informing the immediate online presentation. Our ability to create this kind of experience through the Monetate platform is driving the demand for our technology.”

Growth and Recognition

Monetate also launched its Certified Partner Program in Q3, signing Brooks Bell as its first Certified Partner. The program has quickly expanded with other partners, including Clearhead, Keystone Solutions, Lima Consulting Group, and True Action.

In Q3, Monetate was also named as one of the Philadelphia 100, which honors the Philadelphia region’s fastest growing private companies, and one of Pennsylvania’s 100 Best Places to Work.
