"As a registered dietitian and a clinical nutrition expert, I'm very proud and excited to launch our plant-powered immunity supplements and interact with our customers as the first Genie in the Bottle hologram! Our goal is to capture nature's special ingredients into quality supplements to help our consumers conquer their health and live their best lives,” comments Noora Mousa, Vice President of ‘TruLyfe’ and the company’s first Genie to be featured on the platform. “The Genie in a Bottle program will allow me as a registered dietitian to empower customers with digestible knowledge they need and will give customers their own dietitian in their pocket”
Evan Gappelberg, Chief Executive Officer, NexTech AR noted, “I believe that our Genie in the Bottle AR marketing program for eCommerce is truly game-changing technology that will forever change how brands interact with customers. This AR for eCommerce offering ties together many of our capabilities including integration with our newly-acquired AirShow application, leveraging our eCommerce sales and marketing machine which is already scaling into Amazon, eBay, Walmart.com, and others plus using Noora’s product knowledge and the ability to offer Noora as our “test” Genie. Not only do I see brands flocking to the ‘Genie’ but I also see this as a fantastic offering for consumers-- who doesn’t want a dietician Genie on demand?”
He continues, “with the golden age of eCommerce upon us everyone is shopping online and brands are looking for a way to communicate with these customers in personalized and engaging ways. We feel that our Genie In the Bottle bridges this gap for brands and represents a major business opportunity for us in house but also to resell to large global brands which we already have great relationships with and are looking for a channel to communicate with their customers.”
