Zesty.io Brand Epicenter "The days of 'Kid Tested, Mother Approved' products are long gone," said Randy Apuzzo, founder and CEO of Zesty.io. "Influencer marketing is the ticket to brands being backed by hundreds of mothers on the internet and thousands of tweets from cereal-loving kids." Most consumer products are sold off physical shelves through a retail partner network or through third-party marketplace vendors like Amazon.com. This method of sales makes products very accessible but creates a universal problem for brands to understand or engage with their customers: After a sale, what happens to the customer? Do they go to a competitive product? Do they remember why they bought your product? How do they feel about your brand? Zesty.io Brand Epicenter captures post-sales engagement opportunities that pave the way to successful influencer marketing campaigns. By creating engaging customer profiles and amplifying social media advocacy, brands connect with customers. The results are organic sharing and word-of-mouth referrals that support incremental sales growth, creating a win-win for both the brand and their retail network.
