Rick (@Sitecordial) here on Day 3 of #C2I to speak to the Marketers and Business decision-makers on the importance of Ignition. I come from a long marketing background in both the traditional and digital space and I have had in-depth exposure to Perficient’s Ignition open source accelerator and I can confidently tell you that all my […]
