 About Bazaarvoice
 
At Bazaarvoice, we create smart shopping experiences. Through our expansive global network, product-passionate community & enterprise technology, we connect thousands of brands and retailers with billions of consumers. Our solutions enable brands to connect with consumers and collect valuable user-generated content, at an unprecedented scale. This content achieves global reach by leveraging our extensive and ever-expanding retail, social & search syndication network. And we make it easy for brands & retailers to gain valuable business insights from real-time consumer feedback with intuitive tools and dashboards. The result is smarter shopping: loyal customers, increased sales, and improved products.
 
The problem we are trying to solve : Brands and retailers struggle to make real connections with consumers. It's a challenge to deliver trustworthy and inspiring content in the moments that matter most during the discovery and purchase cycle. The result? Time and money spent on content that doesn't attract new consumers, convert them, or earn their long-term loyalty.
 
Our brand promise : closing the gap between brands and consumers.

    • Partnering with the client’s marketing and merchandising staff and working through their organization to find the key decision makers
    • Working through the legal aspects of the contract with the client’s lawyer while leveraging our internal counsel to close the deal
    • Demonstrate passion and energy both externally with the customer and internally with cross functional teams
    • Consistently build and manage an effective pipeline and communicate proactively with leadership throughout each phase of the renewal/sales process
