We’re trying to resolve two things. One is the conversion rate; every ecommerce retailer is struggling with that. The other is the margin. With a long-time learning about what Session AI has to offer, I think it’s a perfect solution that resolves those two problems.

How PacSun uses in-session marketing
With Session AI, PacSun can now predict the likelihood to purchase in 5 clicks for anonymous consumers and use that intelligence to engage and convert them in-session.
