Description
Rob Pace is the Founder and CEO of HundredX, a revolutionary customer feedback analytics platform.  HundredX believes that legacy surveys are broken and that social media amplifies the “loud” versus the “crowd”.   So to source honest data from real customers, HundredX partners with over 1,000 non-profits who receive funding from HundredX when their supporters provide the feedback business leaders need to hear.   This creates a unique “data for good” business model that has resulted in HundredX being recognized as one of the top mission based corporations in the U.S. With a keen understanding of the importance of customer satisfaction, Rob has spearheaded the development of an innovative technology that enables organizations to harness and analyze valuable customer insights in real time. His visionary leadership and unwavering commitment to improving the customer experience have made HundredX a trusted partner for companies across various industries.
