Internet Tech Firm Powers Client’s Rapid Ascent to “Hot 100”
When WorkingPerson.com was recognized as a Hot 100 Best Web Site, the company’s CEO, Eric Deniger credited the firm’s rapid growth and
e-commerce success to its Internet technology and marketing partner, AVID Commerce.
“Climbing to the top rank of e-retailers requires a mix of great merchandising and advanced Internet technologies, supported by data driven online marketing”, said AVID Commerce Managing Director Stephen Antisdel. “Landing a spot on the Hot 100 list puts WorkingPerson.com in some very rarified company of premier online retailers including Cabelas.com, Coach.com, Amazon.com and Gap.com.”
“Working with AVID allows WorkingPerson to focus on the customer and running the business to drive value and build our brand. AVID continues to take a granular approach to our site functionality and marketing efforts and the metrics for our site have exceeded expectations”, said WorkingPerson CEO Eric Deniger.
Commenting on the common characteristics of the Hot 100 winners, Internet Retailer magazine’s Editor-in-Chief, Kurt Peters said the group demonstrates a “willingness to innovate and set the standards in online retailing”.
Peters added “WorkingPerson.com has adopted a number of web site innovations and is a great example of how you don’t have to be a huge conglomerate to excel on the Internet.”
AVID Commerce provides WorkingPerson.com with website design, platform, site search, content, and online marketing services.
