Praveen Rao will head The Tech Company. He comes with more than two decades of diverse experience in integrated marketing, campaign management and sales.

‘With over a decade and half being spent in the data driven marketing world, I am excited to steer this venture that will resolve the last mile digital connects for all the offline customer touch points on a real time basis’, says Praveen Rao

Why is ROX relevant and contextual?

Traditional return on investment (ROI) metrics are no longer sufficient on their own to determine any brand's success. Evaluating whether your value proposition, capabilities, and portfolio of products and services will create shareholder value requires laser focus on how well you’re meeting higher expectations around the customer experience. Organizations need to map consumers’ purchase journey, isolate the touch points and factors that drive experience, and then invest more in the parts of the company that will move the needle on those interactions and yield measurable results — or return on experience (ROX). ROX also needs to address whether the company is driving the behaviours in the organization that are key to designing and delivering better online and physical experiences.

Bridging the offline-online realities

Brands deploy multiple offline customer experience campaigns using on-ground activation, retail conversations and field sales interactions, but with limited impact and unclear ROI.  The Tech Company’s platforms will port contextual and intuitive customer information gathered through offline campaigns, on a real time basis to the brand’s ad platforms and digital front-ends, enabling actionable insights for the brands.

Tribes as a combined entity has a portfolio of Blue Chip clients such as Puma, ITC, Nokia, Wonder Cement, Nissan, HMSI, Nerolac, Google, Facebook, Western Union, One Plus, Marico, Exxon Mobil etc to name a few.
