About Glowtify:

Glowtify is an AI-powered SaaS platform designed to help ecommerce businesses simplify their marketing strategies and build strong brands. In just six months, we’ve scaled to $21K MRR by addressing a critical gap in the market: current tools overwhelm merchants with data but lack strategic guidance. Glowtify bridges that gap by offering an all-in-one solution that integrates analytics and generative AI for content creation. With seamless connectors to platforms like Shopify and Google, we make advanced marketing accessible to non-technical users, targeting SMBs that generate $100K+ annually in a $68 billion industry.

1. What’s the main problem your startup is solving, and how are you tackling it in a way that stands out?

Current marketing tools inundate merchants with data but provide no strategic guidance, causing 98% to stall below $1M in revenue. Relying on expensive agencies often leads to disappointment. Glowtify addresses this problem with a platform and not an agency.

Glowtify is an AI-powered ecommerce marketing platform offering: 

  1. Proprietary business intelligence database
  2. 2 way connectors: Seamlessly integrate with Shopify, Facebook, Google, Klaviyo,…
  3. Brand builder: Develop and strengthen brand identity
  4. AI recommendation engine: Optimize marketing strategies with intelligent insights
  5. Content Creation and Publishing: AI Generated content and publishing

 

2. How did your product come to life, and what makes it different from what’s already out there?

Glowtify was created to solve the problem of ecommerce businesses stalling below $1M due to data overload and lack of strategic guidance. Unlike traditional tools or agencies, our AI-powered platform simplifies marketing strategy and content creation, offering seamless integrations, a brand-building engine, and intelligent recommendations, all built on 15 years of ecommerce marketing experience to help businesses grow efficiently.

 

3. Can you share a key lesson or challenge e you’ve faced on your entrepreneurial journey and how did you work through it?

A key challenge we faced was building a platform that bridges analytics and AI-driven content creation, which hadn’t been done before. It was easy to get distracted by new AI possibilities, but we learned to stay focused on solving real customer pain points and delivering value quickly. By understanding our users’ problems deeply, we kept our innovation aligned with what truly mattered to them.

 

4. What are you most excited to learn or experience during the L-SPARK Accelerator?

I’m most excited to be challenged by experienced entrepreneurs who have successfully scaled businesses. I look forward to refining our management approach and sharpening our vision and mission to ensure we are positioned for sustainable growth and impact.

 

5. What’s been your biggest milestone so far, and how has it shaped where you’re headed?

Our biggest milestone so far has been establishing a new revenue strategy within L-SPARK, aligning all co-founders around this focus. This alignment has given us a clear path forward, and we’re now fully committed to accelerating our growth and scaling revenues rapidly

 

L-SPARK is very excited to work with the team at Glowtify to help them grow their solution and drive tangible impact for businesses everywhere. Meet the team this upcoming November 13th-14th at SAAS North Conference in Ottawa, and learn more about how they’re innovating in the space of AI Marketing tools.
