PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Artisan Mobile, creator of the industry’s first Mobile Experience Management (MEM) platform, today announced that Rue La La, a leading private sale shopping destination, has signed on as a customer for Artisan® Optimize. Rue La La selected Artisan because of its native app A/B testing capabilities and the ability of the technology to support frequent application updates driven by clear consumer usage data.
With hundreds of thousands of Members active on its mobile channel, Rue La La’s app consistently engages users, regardless of time or place, granting immediate access and seamless shopping experiences. Recent programs with Rue La La succeeded in capitalizing on user traffic, increasing conversion rates by up to 40%.
"We are excited to be working with Artisan Optimize to directly impact the results of our mobile app," said Gerry McGoldrick, VP, Marketing, Rue La La. "Through their technology we are learning what drives conversions and, more importantly, we are able to make changes quickly and easily to keep consumers engaged."
Artisan Optimize is the first solution to enable real-time A/B testing of existing native mobile applications without the need to write code or submit changes to an app store.

Artisan Optimize is also capable of A/B testing more complex areas such as navigation schemes, workflows, and business logic.
"Just like we’ve seen with websites, small changes can make a big difference in results when it comes to mobile apps," said Bob Moul, CEO, Artisan. "With Artisan Optimize, we’re taking the guesswork out of evaluating app design and performance, giving our customers deep insights into user behavior and the ability to rapidly iterate designs to drive maximum results."
