Marketers constantly look for ways to influence our decisions and spend billions of dollars every year on advertising and useless schwag in order to do so. Expert marketers know how to influence people to obtain new customers and evolve quickly to stay ahead of competition. Studying human behavior and decision-making processes led Jignesh Shah on a new digital path on how to influence others.
Jignesh Shah is the chief executive officer of Rybbon. Rybbon is a digital gifting platform enabling marketers to deliver customized electronic gifts like gift cards and digital content. Jignesh launched Rybbon to solve a recurring problem associated with incentivizing customers and prospects. Incentives today are predominantly physical items like pens, shirts, cups and many other items you pick up at conferences or sales booths. These physical items don’t fit well with digital channels we use to consume services and Jignesh says you should change your way of thinking.
In this episode I talk with Jignesh on why he started Rybbon and what is his most difficult task. Jignesh explains how the company originated, a failure they overcame and how it became a success after modifying their tactics. Jignesh goes on to explain some of the data driven decisions the company makes and how that influences sales and marketing tactics at his company.
