SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (PRWEB) August 09, 2018 -- Aki Technologies, the moment marketing science company that predicts when and how a mobile consumer is most likely to respond to a marketing message, today announced its continued momentum with the hiring of a key sales personnel. Cassandra Farris-Murray is now Sales Director based in Bentonville, Arkansas; Steve Kelly is Sales Director in the new Boston office; and William Mulligan will serve as Senior Director of Data Strategy, a newly created role, working from the Chicago office.
"Brands are seeking out a more personalized, consumer-friendly approach to mobile—exactly what we're enabling through our moment marketing methodology—and we've continued to grow to meet that demand," said CEO Scott Swanson. "I'm excited to welcome Cassie, Bill and Steve as the newest additions to this incredibly talented and dedicated team."
The new members of the sales team bring notable expertise to Aki. Bill was previously director of Data Strategy at Verve, where he connected consumer behavior with point of sale conversions.
