In 2009 Zack started Imply Labs. He cultivated the concept of predictive buying through social media analysis, formed a team and licensed the technology first on GiveEmThis.com, a personalized gift engine. After selling that company, he returned to get his MBA at BYU.
In addition to being featured in Wall Street Journal, NYTimes, Wired Magazine, Mashable and other major publications, he has been a partner in five other startups focusing on marketing, sales, biz dev and strategic planning and advised dozens of entrepreneurs.
In 2008, Zack also started Courage to Hope, a non-profit that is still assisting battered women's shelters in Ukraine.
