Leading Internet Flower Retailer Uses Omniture to Identify Consumer Purchasing Trends and Adjust Product Promotions in Real-Time
OREM, Utah – July 25, 2007 — Omniture, Inc. (NASDAQ: OMTR), a leading provider of online business optimization software, today announced that ProFlowers, the nation’s largest grower-direct Internet flower provider, has selected Omniture to measure merchandising effectiveness and consumer response to online promotions in real time. Because their products are perishable, ProFlowers relies on Omniture to understand how to best manage inventory, determining in real time, which products to promote and when to essentially “slow down” product sales based on visitor response—optimizing merchandising operations while maximizing online revenue.
“Much of our business is focused around two major occasions: Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day. The ability to view and analyze site performance data in real-time during these time periods is critical,” said Stuart Ridge, director of site optimization at ProFlowers. “With Omniture, we have tools which help us control the balancing act of driving maximum revenue while effectively managing our inventory.”
“Consumer purchasing trends can change and evolve based on several factors not immediately apparent to retailers,” said Gail Ennis, senior vice president of marketing at Omniture. “Omniture empowers companies with the real-time information they need to adjust online strategies to match, and many times anticipate, customer behavior—ensuring companies’ online channels more easily convert shoppers into buyers.”
