SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Oct 16, 2013) -  Phizzle, Inc., the fan-centric marketing automation technology provider, today announces a strategic partnership with GoodData®, the leader in cloud business intelligence, to deliver micro-targeted fan engagement analysis and dashboard visualizations on Phizzle's marketing automation platform.

We selected GoodData as our strategic partner for BI to provide critical insights needed to optimize efficiency and strategic decision-making across organizations.
