Retention Science is a marketing platform built to retain and target existing customers. The company uses lots of algorithms and data to capture a 360 degree view of a site visitor and boil down what matters the most to that specific visitor across web and email platforms.

Another one of our Top 50’s, and one of the most successful companies in the United States, Honest Company uses Retention Science for their email marketing efforts. With the service, Honest is able to capture information about their subscribers preferences, like time of day emails are opened and time spent reading each email, and tailor their efforts to be more effective. Clearly, it’s working. Retention Science also works on marketing campaigns for Target, Neiman Marcus and Vitamin Shoppe.
