English term or phrase: curate

In fact, the ability to ***curate*** marketing and experiences unique to each individual has become table stakes for organizations in the digital age. Nearly 40 percent of consumers said they have left a business’s website and made a purchase on another site or in store because they were overwhelmed by too many options when trying to make a decision. Flooding consumers with options — even options that are relevant and interesting — can overwhelm them and instill a lack of confidence in purchase decisions. This can drive consumers away from the site, often for good.
