(Nasdaq: NOGN) (“Nogin”) and Hawke Media announced a powerful partnership that is expected to revolutionize the digital marketing landscape.

"This collaboration is an exciting opportunity for us to expand our reach into the digital marketing space while also giving our customers access to cutting-edge performance marketing capabilities. Further, the combination of Nogin’s Machine Learning driven segmentation, deployment of on-site and off-site customer engagement programs and use of our AI-powered site merchandising will create magnified returns on the expertise that Hawke Media brings to our clients."
Existing clients of Nogin and Hawke Media do not need to do anything to benefit from this new partnership. Agreements will remain as they are, and representatives won't change. Clients will receive the added benefits from more expert knowledge, and a deeper bench of expertise moving forward. Nogin's focus on growing ecommerce brands by providing enterprise-level technology along with on-demand, fractional expertise in all the essential functions of ecommerce has made it a leader in a rapidly growing segment of the digital commerce industry. With this new partnership, Nogin is looking forward to giving customers even more value and expertise. Nogin and Hawke Media believe that this will lead to better results and improved outcomes for everyone involved.
"At Hawke Media, we are always looking for ways to provide innovative solutions for our clients," said Erik Huberman, Founder, and CEO of Hawke Media. "By partnering with Nogin we can now offer our clients an integrated solution that helps them grow their businesses quickly and efficiently."
The combination of these two industry leaders is expected to significantly advance digital marketing solutions, and provide access to a set of capabilities that ensure customers have no “ceiling” with respect to scalability in any aspect of their digital commerce journey.
