We sat down with Anthony Bucci of Revzilla
to talk about how this online retailer uses Monetate.
How does RevZilla.com use Monetate?
At RevZilla.com we are laser-focused on making our site the best Monetate was also very easy for us to implement on RevZilla.com. It’s a

proved to be the most effective strategy for us to date.
Something we were immediately excited about with Monetate was the
ease of international targeting. RevZilla.com is licensed to ship to some Monetate has also been a great way for RevZilla.com to easily–and

What do you like most about Monetate?
International Targeting
I spearhead marketing and creative at RevZilla.com so I love the fact
that Monetate allows me to focus full time on content and message
quality, instead of splitting my focus with implementation strategy. And
the lack of any IT overhead with Monetate removes a major limiting
factor from my to-do list. RevZilla.com has a very diverse core customer
base which varies by riding style, age group, and other unique factors.
Monetate lets us speak to all of those riders in ways that are relevant to
them, either through a vernacular to which they can relate or through
the brands they are currently researching or to which they have
previously been loyal.

Any final thoughts?
Using Monetate means our time to market around site changes and
messaging modifications is lightning fast compared to an in-house
implementation. We built RevZilla.com to inherently be more agile
than the average online retailer, but the added boost to deployment
through Monetate continues to be a win for us.
Monetate has also been a great way
for RevZilla.com to easily—and measurably—
implement ideas on the site, then
quickly quantify their performance.
