Who They Are

At Aki Technologies, we help shopper marketers drive real-world results, like foot traffic and sales, by reaching the right shoppers in the right moments with the right mobile ads. Our company was founded by ad tech pioneers who believe that mobile advertising can deliver truly incredible results—if you connect with shoppers during the most receptive moments. Stop by our booth to learn about the many leading brands that have embraced Aki’s moment marketing science and discover how we can help you uncover the optimal mobile moments for your campaigns.

What They Sell

In a time when shoppers spend at least three hours a day on mobile devices, we help shopper marketers identify the moments when they are most likely to capture mobile attention. Our AI-powered moment marketing science uncovers patterns in ad receptivity so you can cut through the noise to deliver more personal and relevant mobile ad experiences along the path to purchase. By reaching shoppers in the optimal moments—with the optimal message—we’ll help you get on the list, drive in-store traffic and sales and increase orders.

Why It Matters

According to Forrester Research, smartphones will play a role in 90% of all digitally-influenced purchases by 2020. This is already a phenomenal opportunity for marketers but, with all the information and distractions mobile consumers face, simply getting on screen isn’t enough to drive ROI from mobile campaigns. In today’s competitive, hyper-connected landscape, you need a solution that identifies the best opportunities for influence and dynamically delivers the creative that best serves your KPIs. That’s why we created moment marketing science.

What You Should Ask Them

  1. How does Aki define audiences to more accurately reach and influence shoppers?
  2. How does moment marketing science work, and why does it give shopper marketers a mobile advantage?
  3. How does Aki measure campaign success, including foot traffic and sales?

Ibotta
Solutions Experience Gallery Sponsor #1
1801 California Street, Suite 400, Denver, CO 80202
(303) 593-1633

Who They Are

Ibotta is a consumer-facing mobile shopping app that has provided millions of dollars in cash back rewards to shoppers on their everyday purchases. For brand and retailer partners, Ibotta is the most efficient way to generate incremental purchases on a pay-per-sale mobile platform.
 
Ibotta also powers white-labeled load-to-card cash-back programs for large grocery retailers, including Kroger. This works like load-to-card coupons, but instead of discounts cash-back is added to a shopper's account for use on a future trip.

What They Sell

Ibotta partners with the world’s leading brands to generate incremental purchases in a 100% pay-for-performance model. Ibotta is holistically different from legacy coupons in that we are 100% mobile, we deliver brand engagements versus simple margin giveaways, and brands only pay Ibotta when a verified sale occurs. Ibotta collects item-level purchases across all retailers and channels, allowing brands to target based on past purchase, demographic, and consumer poll responses in a way no other tactic can match.
 
For retailers, Ibotta's white-label cash-back offers are better than digital coupons because rewards are re-invested in that retailer’s stores on a future trip. Positive rewards result in bouncebacks, higher loyalty, and decreased shopper defection.

Why It Matters

Ibotta reaches both new and competitive shoppers by delivering dynamically segmented offers to different audience types.
 
Ibotta's receipt capture plus loyalty card data from 100+ retailer integrations captures every transaction, providing robust purchase insights.
 
Ibotta's deterministic purchase data can help you understand if/how top of funnel media is translating to in-store sales.
 
Click/Collect and E-commerce/M-Commerce are changing the way consumers are shopping, and Ibotta can be a shopper marketing tool to help bridge the online and offline gap.
 
Cash-back is a clear evolution for load-to-card and the largest retailers are moving this direction because they recognize the benefits of rewards relative to discounts

What You Should Ask Them

 
  1. How can Ibotta become a holistic marketing partner for my brand?
  2. How can retailers partner with Ibotta and get cash-back offers in their loyalty program?

Who They Are

What They Sell

Founded in Sweden in 2006 and now working with 300 clients across 50 countries, Nepa quantifies what matters most to your shoppers and your bottom line and recommends specific actions to grow your business. Combining quantitative and qualitative data along with deep analytics and advisory services, we help you close the gap between consideration and purchase.
At Nepa, our proprietary approach to Omnichannel Path to Purchase Analytics, Marketing Mix Modeling, Customer Experience Measurement Solutions, Brand & Ad Tracking Measurement and Custom Research & Analytics means you get the answers you need to fuel accelerated growth.

Why It Matters

Profitable growth depends on sound strategies and tactics, which in turn depend on understanding (a) how shoppers navigate today’s omnichannel path to purchase, and (b) which touchpoints drive conversion and influence brand health. While it’s essential, it’s not easy: The path is not linear, shoppers can experience more than 40 online and offline touchpoints per category, and shopper journeys can be influenced by shopping mission, shopper segment, retail destination, and other factors. That’s why it’s important to work with a partner who has conducted multiple P2P studies for leading global brands.

What You Should Ask Them

  1. How do you provide a “touchpoint conversion power” metric that allows for comparison between online and offline touchpoints and guides strategy and tactics?
  2. How can you help us understand planned vs. unplanned purchases and our opportunity to influence unplanned elements (category, brand, product, etc.)?
  3. Can you provide specific insights to support JBPs across key retailers, whether they release customer data or not?
