Overview
Our founders built one of the first content personalization engines for websites. It was cool and it sold! Unfortunately, most B2B companies lack buyer research processes these days. Without deep understanding of their buyers, marketers struggle to tailor content experiences. So that product didn't get used broadly, and that was frustrating.
