  • Emerged as an e-Commerce technology leader with a mission of deploying best-of-breed technologies that help brands, retailers, advertisers and agencies sell more efficiently and profitably online.

“Across the board, 2017 was a phenomenal year for ConversionPoint Technologies,” said Robert Tallack, CEO of ConversionPoint Technologies. “After many significant and exciting developments, the year culminated with bringing Sellpoints into ConversionPoint to tackle the online retail and Amazon challenes of e-Commerce marketing. We’re now looking forward to another strong year of growth, driven by a number of ambitious goals.”



The company’s four main areas of focus in 2018 include:

  • Increasing revenue, market reach and expand customer bases for all three ConversionPoint units by offering a SaaS-model platform across all of its e-Commerce solutions
  • Pursue acquisitions that support e-Commerce technology focused on delivering high client ROI
  • Support M&A program by completing a large private capital raise in the first quarter

“We have laid out a detailed 2018 roadmap to add talent, functionality and UI enhancements to all of our e-Commerce platforms,” continued Tallack. “Every feature and innovation offered by this extraordinary group of companies will be focused on one thing: increasing ROI for client brands, advertisers and agencies.”


Sellpoints CEO, Brian O'Keefe, commented: “As part of ConversionPoint, we now have an enhanced capability to add value to our customer relationships and further enhance the user experience on our OMNI platform. We see many positive developments ahead.”

Haig Newton, CEO of Push Interactive and CTO of ConversionPoint, added: “Our Push e-Commerce technologies have been thoroughly ‘battle tested,’ and they work in ways totally new to most companies. In 2018, we’re planning to add additional AI functionality, as well as integrate Sellpoints’ unique knowhow and capabilities.”

According to Wilson Rondini, managing partner of Falcon Capital: “The rapid evolution in e-Commerce over the last year has been incredible, and for many, overly challenging with little reward. ConversionPoint attacks the major e-Commerce pain points head-on with brilliant technology solutions that generate measurable ROI. With an amazing winning team at the helm, we see ConversionPoint as the perfect investment for the new economy.”
