Frustrated with the industry’s weak reaction to e-commerce's enormous opportunities, John applied his deep client-side knowledge to help brands win online. He told colleagues in 2015, ‘The market needs it; it doesn’t exist, so we’ll create it.’  In 2022 he sold the market-defining Digital Shelf Analytics platform that he built to a Silicon Valley unicorn.
