MarTech and E-commerce Data Management
Marketing technology, or MarTech, is a term that encompasses specific software applications used to build, automate, track, and improve marketing efforts. Many kinds of industries rely on MarTech to increase the efficiency of their marketing efforts—and to better understand what resonates (or does not) with different audiences. (2)
Data management plays a critical role in the ever-evolving landscape of e-commerce, through its transformative impact on customer engagement and business growth. Helms and Roquet delve into how, by adopting efficient data handling approaches, e-commerce vendors can unlock valuable insights and enhance the overall customer experience through personalized recommendations and targeted marketing efforts.

With Finch's platform, Roquet aims to address these challenges by centralizing data, enabling agencies to deliver clear insights and enhance client relationships.
Empowering E-commerce through Collaborative Storytelling
Roquet emphasizes the significance of storytelling in conveying the value of data. "If you understand the data, you own the narrative and can drive collaboration and shared success," he asserts.
Roquet remains committed to driving innovation and empowering businesses to thrive in an ever-evolving digital ecosystem. By providing transparent, data-driven insights, the platform fosters stronger client-agency relationships and facilitates more meaningful conversations around strategy and performance.
