SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Jan. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Invoca, the call intelligence company, today announced Invoca for Performance Marketers, a new platform built to help enterprise brands and performance marketing partners drive more revenue through inbound phone calls - a channel that will drive over $1 trillion in U.S. commerce in 2016.
