When we re-named our company Wize Commerce (the company was founded in 1999 as Nextag, LLC), some people got it and I’m sure some people did not.

Thus, the new name is meant to reflect a company that has evolved dramatically over the last 10 years, and to reflect a broader mission for our technology and our team.

Before there was a Kayak for air travel comparison shopping, Nextag was there in “retail” comparison shopping and today millions of users can compare product details and prices across thousands of merchants and tens of millions of products. We don’t sell our own consumer products, instead, our sites and proprietary software drives sales to thousands of merchants—Amazon, Macy’s, Sears, and many many others—with the objective of providing them with the best ROI for their marketing spend.

What we’re good at, in other words, and what we believe our clients appreciate the most, is that across digital ecosystems and channels – from search, to social, to mobile and more- we know how to make money for merchants better than anyone, and we pass that value onto them. (more…)

The Wize Commerce team has been hard at work with our Silhouette launch clients in recent weeks, with many merchants running new customer acquisition engagements.  With their input, we are pleased to announce that today we released the Silhouette Performance Reporting module.  Wize Commerce clients now have access to self-service reporting to monitor marketing performance in the Silhouette.

Silhouette Reports provide a 360 degree view of the conversion funnel – with key traffic acquisition metrics such as impressions and click thru rate, Silhouette performance metrics such as conversion, and merchant site conversion metrics including orders and sales.  Together we work with clients to optimize business results, and calculate and improve marketing ROI and overall cost of sale.  Of course the reporting is configurable and can be viewed online or exported.

Check back often for Silhouette product enhancements.
