"We're seeing innovative marketers around the world use display ads to reach customers and prospects who are in market, based on the data and behavior they know about those individuals and leveraging that data to reach people who are engaged, under-engaged, or not reachable through promotional email or social marketing strategies. It's very exciting to see this extra communication touch point result in increased revenue for our customers."

"The Responsys solution has allowed us to provide a more personalized message across CRM and display for live event fans," said Kathleen Engler, Senior Marketing Manager at StubHub. "Early results are positive, and we will continue to expand relationship retargeting so we can better engage with fans."

"Display is a major step forward in our ability to target and integrate all of our digital channels for the right outcome for the customer," said Louise Brockbank, Chief Marketing Officer at vividwireless. "The integration of targeted display ads into our customer and prospect communications is a first for the Australian market, as well as for Responsys and vividwireless."
