Host Cyndi Edwards introduced Datable Technology Corp. (DAC:TSX.V; TTMZF:OTCQB) as a firm that helps brand names retain customers by capitalizing on data collected on them.
Mike Ridgewell explained that "Datable offers bespoke solutions that can really kickstart a brand's direct-to-consumer needs, whether it be standalone shopper promotions or full blown loyalty programs, and the platform allows us to do that easily, effectively and efficiently."
In his 30 years of client side experience and having seen numerous direct-to-consumer solutions, former Disney executive Ridgewell said Datable's PLATFORM 3 "genuinely impressed him" when he first saw it, enough for him to then invest in and become an adviser to the company.
Another former decades-long Disney executive, Marc Reintjes, also bought shares of Datable after comparing its offerings to competitors'. He described PLATFORM 3 as "the best platform out there for engaging customers and developing loyalty."
Datable has contracts with 25 major global brands, including Molson Coors, Toro, Universal, for about $5.5 million, said Kim Oishi, the company's chairman and owner of 10.7 million shares.
Chris Thompson, analyst for eResearch, highlighted the company's current and future growth as the primary reason to buy Datable today. In Q3/21 the company generated 91% more revenue than it had in Q2/21, and revenue is expected to double with Datable's recently announced acquisition of Dabbl. Also, he said, Datable's market valuation is low, so "there's room to grow."
Dabbl owns a database of first party data and a sizable community of consumers, encompassing more than 1.3 million downloads, Oishi said. With Dabbl, Datable will be able to land new customers.
Oishi explained that acquisition will continue to be one of the company's growth strategies. The other, a major goal for Datable in 2022, is getting its brand clients with smaller budgets, around $20,000 per month, to spend more each month, about $1 million.
Reintjes noted that generally Datable works with many of its client brands in one of their segments, say home entertainment with Universal, and looks to expand into their other divisions. He added that Datable clients are responsive to scaling up.
Ridgewell echoed the belief that clients want to use Datable in other retail areas under their corporate umbrella and are moving more and more into the direct-to-consumer space.
"In these times, marketing leaders want more," he said. "They want more revenue, more impact, more consumers, more engaging promotions, more insights, more data and more ways to measure the efficacy of what they do.
Brands see the strategic advantage in really owning the consumer relationship, acquiring data and having a direct dialogue with those consumers so to understand their journeys, how they shop, how they buy and how they can influence those journeys for greater impact."
