Consumers love their brands.
Now more than ever, consumers cultivate real connections with brands: they have the same passions, morals and ideals. They will follow their brands anywhere they go, but this process can get complicated.
Today’s chaotic consumer landscape yields less brand loyalty.
With so many sources available for consumers to validate their decision to purchase, consumers are now only loyal to brands if the they feel there is real value. They instead prefer to shop how, where, and when they want, on their own time and at their own convenience.
Consumers expect relevant, reliable, and real-time information when deciding from which brand to purchase, but this information is presented poorly on behalf of the manufacturer. Instead, the dealer controls the touchpoints where the consumer is likely to purchase, constraining the brand experience.
Welcome makes expertise available, wherever it is, to consumers, wherever they are.
Our passion today is driven by the same idea that led to the inception of Welcome. CEO and Co-founder, Dan Herman, grew up chatting with friends via text and instant message. When his mom, not known for being tech-savvy, began to text more often than call, he knew this wasn’t just the current trend: it was a shift in behavior.
Then Dan had his epiphany: “how do we make the relevant expertise available, wherever that is, to consumers, wherever they are?”
We have created technology-driven solutions that allow you to bring the full omnichannel experience to life.
Combine the personalization of the past with the ubiquity of the present, thus creating a better, more relevant experience across every consumer touchpoint.
Where people are concerned, why is more important than what.
It’s not enough to know what your customers are doing – in order to know how best to respond, you need to understand why.
Utilizing data to your advantage
The data systems today only tell you the facts. With our robust intelligence, we take the facts and transform them into stories about your customers, enabling you to better understand your customers while they shop.
You can now leverage cross-retailer, cross-product and cross-touchpoint intelligence to help you better understand the differing needs of each customer.
Our data is delivered to you in such a way that you can easily digest, understand, and act on the information given to you, so that you can be more proactive with customers and provide the personalized experiences they crave.

How it works in the real world
Ashley was shopping in her local Walmart looking for a tablet, but she was having trouble narrowing down her options. As she was comparing two different SONY tablets, she saw a display sign offering “Text SONY. Ask any question.” So she pulled out her cell phone and texted the keyword to CHATID. She was connected with Melissa, a SONY customer service representative, who was able to advise which product was faster. Satisfied that her questions were answered, Ashley bought a tablet and left the store feeling good.
How it works in the real world
At the bus stop on her way to work, Ashley was flipping through Vanity Fair and saw an Estée Lauder ad with Kendall Jenner. At the bottom of the ad, Ashley saw an option that read: “Text Estée Lauder. Ask any question.” She had been wanting to switch lipstick brands because her favorite line was discontinued. When at work, she google-searched “Estée Lauder lipsticks” and narrowed her options down to two she liked, but she still had some questions. Ashley took out her Vanity Fair magazine from her tote and texted “KENDALL” to CHATID; she was immediately connected with Mia, an Estée Lauder representative. Ashley asked Mia which lipstick shade she would recommend based on her complexion. Five minutes later, Ashley had received a great recommendation from Mia and had purchased three lipsticks, all in separate shades.
How did we achieve this?
Even if your omnichannel infrastructure doesn’t include a mobile app, you can still interact with a customer on their smartphone device with Welcome.
