Remembering faces at events isn't so different understanding a shopper's journey online. They both require seeing and knowing a person.
Tina Cuatto, Director of Product Management at DealerOn, joins the crew to discuss website personalization and its impact on the automotive industry. From her early days as a Public Affairs intern at the Smithsonian to her current role, Tina shares her journey in navigating fast-paced industries and her focus on making technology more human. With a background in journalism and a love for the arts, Tina brings a different perspective to how she helps dealerships create more personalized, intuitive online experiences for their customers.
