Harrison’s role will be to convert EasyExport proprietary transaction data into actionable international sales and marketing information, available exclusively to EasyExport merchants.

“The advanced techniques available to data scientists today permit them to chart a merchant’s path to success in much the same way advanced optics enable feats of long-range accuracy,” said Harrison. “Anyone can identify the 10 or 20 most promising international markets for a particular merchant. For me, the excitement of joining EasyExport lies in the ability to do so much more. We will be able identify hidden areas of opportunity, recommend pricing strategies and drive marketing campaigns.
