The Knight
Pini Yakuel- founded Optimove in 2009 and has led the company, as its CEO, since its inception. With two decades of experience in analytics-driven customer marketing, business consulting and sales, he is the driving force behind Optimove. His passion for innovative and empowering technologies is what keeps Optimove ahead of the curve. He holds an MSc in Industrial Engineering and Management from Tel Aviv University.
Always Ahead of the Curve
Optimove prides itself on innovation. A most obvious example would be the Self-Optimizing Journeys that maximize customer lifetime value by autonomously identifying all the campaigns a customer is eligible for, evaluating all journey possibilities, probabilities and potential gains, and serving the next-best-action for each. Another example is Optimove’s database infrastructure, enabling brands to access their always up-to-date unified customer data, share it with internal systems and teams, include it in proprietary models, and use it to create bespoke customer attributes.
Aiming to Innovate
Optimove constantly aims to upgrade its own technology and products, as well as its own service. In that respect, the company harnesses the power of AI and Machine Learning for Self-Optimizing Journeys, in which the customer’s journey is virtually managed. This means that prioritizing campaigns in marketing is no longer a complex issue. It’s a nonissue.
In terms of upgrading Optimove’s level of service, it has initiated migration of its data integration, transformation and sharing processes to Snowflake’s Cloud Data Warehouse. Combining Optimove’s sophisticated data calculations and transformations with Snowflake’s scalable cloud-based infrastructure, will provide Optimove users with faster, direct access to their single-customer-views and predictive analytics.
Empowering Clients
The Optimove software orchestrates the automated execution of all pre-scheduled and activity-triggered customer communications, over a wide range of marketing channels, putting a true multi-channel personalization powerhouse at the tips of marketers’ fingers. The Optimove relationship marketing hub empowers marketers to target, manage and refine hundreds of granular, homogeneous customer segments, increasing customer satisfaction and engagement – and maximizing customer lifetime value.
When Global Expansion is Just a Matter of Time
In recent months, Optimove has penetrated APAC, opening a Singapore office and employing representatives in India. Optimove has multiple clients in the region, for whom it aims to provide fast and effective means to increase their growth. The company is also strengthening support for additional verticals.
