“Basketful’s mission has always been to make it easier for consumers to find and buy the things they need. Our tools combined with SmartCommerce’s broad reach and deep data capabilities will accelerate fulfillment of that mission,” noted Eugene Burd co-founder of Basketful.
Basketful cofounder Jim Lesch added, “Consumers amplify the messages that matter to them, and filter the ones that don’t – so effective marketing requires getting the right message on the right product to the right consumer at the right time and in the right context – and our tools and insights engine combined with SmartCommerce data and reach will help accelerate that for CPG brands.”
The companies have already begun integrating technologies, and SmartCommerce will begin providing enhanced services to clients in Q4 this year.
