Fishbowl<\/a>\u00ae<\/a><\/sup> Inc<\/a><\/u>., the leading provider of marketing and analytics solutions to the restaurant industry, has named Mike Dodson<\/a><\/u> as its new Chief Executive Officer. In this role, Dodson will continue Fishbowl\u2019s mission of being an industry leader by offering innovative products, world-class analytics, and actionable, insights-driven services.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are thrilled to welcome Mike as the new CEO of Fishbowl,\u201d said Marc Bala<\/a><\/u>, Managing Director of Symphony Technology Group (STG). \u201cFishbowl is poised for tremendous growth. Mike\u2019s outstanding expertise in the restaurant technology segment and his client centric focus make him the ideal CEO to lead Fishbowl into this next phase of growth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dodson joins Fishbowl with an extensive, proven track record of driving business growth in the restaurant technology sector. He has shown an ability to merge innovation and customer service in a variety of capacities, including serving as an advisor to emerging technology companies such as Resy and Rewards Network, and as Chief Revenue Officer \/SVP of Global Sales and Restaurant Relations at OpenTable. In that capacity, Dodson was a key member of the executive team who took the helm of the company following the dot-com crash. During his tenure, Dodson scaled OpenTable from less than 800 restaurants in only four cities to a global enterprise that now serves more than 40,000 restaurants, navigating it through an IPO, and ultimately, the successful acquisition of Priceline Group.<\/p>\n

Prior to OpenTable, Dodson served as Vice President and General Manager of Merchant Services, with a focus on merchant acquisition and card-member spending for the western United States.<\/p>\n

\u201cFishbowl has served the needs of the restaurant industry for two decades as both an innovator and an industry resource,\u201d remarked Dodson. \u201cI was fortunate enough to partner with them at the beginning of their journey during my time at OpenTable. I am very excited to join them now as CEO as we evolve with new strategies to leverage our SaaS platform and analytical solutions to create competitive advantages for restaurant brands of all sizes. We will continue our strong tradition of service to our numerous clients, and provide them with the support they expect and deserve.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
