Our take

Attentive is a leading eCommerce SMS marketing tool that enables brands to leverage the boom in mobile shopping by creating data-driven, personalized text message campaigns.

With a focused strategy, the company is expanding its reach into new markets, rivaling messaging giants like WeChat and WhatsApp. Already making strides in the UK and running initiatives in Canada and Australia, Attentive is boldly replicating its success. However, to stay competitive, the company must keep pace with the anticipated surge in eCommerce tool innovation over the next decade.

As the eCommerce market continues to grow, favoring tech-forward solutions aligned with emerging 'Commerce 3.0', Attentive, a unicorn with solid backing, is well-positioned to achieve further success in this lucrative and expanding industry,
