Developed in 1978 to promote team problem solving skills, the Odyssey of the Mind competition includes students in all 50 states and a number of foreign countries, amongst them the United Kingdom, Japan, China, and Russia.

DENVER, CO – March 27, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —

Acclaimed authority in retail and hospitality industry, Des Hague has been a devoted proponent of Stamford Youth Foundation (SYF), a local community-based organization working to foster youth development and social engagement through its broad array of programs and activities. As the board member of this agency, he is particularly delighted to take the opportunity to congratulate the SYF teams with their participation and victory at the annual Odyssey of the Mind tournament. Competing against more than 160 teams from throughout the state, SYF saw three of their ten teams advance to the World Finals last year. Odyssey of the Mind is a rigorous academic competition for students from kindergarten through college, held in every US state, with finalists competing nationally.

Board member of the Stamford Youth Foundation (SYF), Hague has been running the Corporate Donations Fundraising, applying his decades of experience in raising money for non-profits on a global scale to the local organization, which allowed them to send their teams to the prestigious tournament. “I couldn’t be more proud of SYF’s success in the Connecticut State Odyssey of the Mind competition,” said Des Hague. “It is a tribute to the hard work of both our students and our teacher coaches who share in the victory. I’m happy to be associated with a great organization like the Stamford Youth Foundation and look forward to the upcoming world finals.”

Developed in 1978 to promote team problem solving skills, the Odyssey of the Mind competition includes students in all 50 states and a number of foreign countries, amongst them the United Kingdom, Japan, China, and Russia. Students are presented with five long-term problems to solve, each incorporating the use of critical thinking skills. Areas covered by the tournament include mechanics, literature, architecture, and much more, challenging the creativity of its young participants. Teams of five to seven members select from five given problems, work together for several months on a solution, and then deliver it as an eight-minute presentation at the state tournament. With the support of Mr. Hague’s corporate fundraising efforts, this year’s Stamford Youth Foundation saw two of their teams place first in their assigned problem and division. Both teams also received the special Jill Riggles Award for Excellence in having placed first in the spontaneous portion of the competition.

Des Hague is an internationally renowned corporate executive and inspirational speaker who can tap into vast experience in the public and private sectors. Over the course of his career he repeatedly demonstrated an impressive level of excellence in leading companies onto a path of growth and success. Hague invests much of is time and energy in supporting worthy causes, as a private individual as well as throughout his professional life. In his position at CEO of Centerplate, the largest event hospitality company in North America, where he managed 43,000 from 2009 to 2014, he established a corporate fundraising program that collected more than $100 million in charitable donations that benefitted a large number of non-profit organizations, including the Stamford Youth Foundation.

The new mobile reality dictates that businesses must be present when ever and where ever consumers are searching for information. They must begin thinking in terms of micro-moments – when users are most open and accepting to brands (old or new) to make a purchase.

Charlotte, United States – March 27, 2017 /PressCable/ —

Recently, several leading Charlotte Digital Marketing agencies were invited to a Google event hosted by the Charlotte Chapter of the American Marketing Association. The topic was, “Google Tips for Optimizing Your Mobile Strategy.” This was a great subject for number of reasons. One, there was an actual Google mobile optimization specialist that could answer them honestly. Secondly, she could give it to the audience straight. “The Good, Bad and Ugly” of what agencies were not taking advantage of that can give clients an edge on their competition.

She was here to provide facts and stats directly from Google to back it up (which are shared throughout). The event began with a simple question from the speaker, “Will everyone please unlock your smartphone and hand to the person to your left?”

She might as well have asked everyone to hand over bank cards and pin numbers. No one participated. What the speaker wanted to demonstrate was the importance of mobile in everything people do – so much that in most cases most were unwilling to hand over a smartphone to a complete stranger for 15 seconds.

Far more interesting is that by comparison, Google estimates that the investment by businesses into desktop is still almost 20 to 1 when compared to mobile. Quite frankly, no one would have had no problem handing a laptop.

The Old Retail Reality

In store shopping time has decreased by 57%. However, the value of each visit to the store is up 300%. Because of this, Google has coined a new term – finger traffic. They believe that the world has now moved from a foot traffic world to a “finger-traffic” universe.

People are now averaging six hours a day per person on smartphones versus one hour five years ago and everyone’s looking for answers all the time no matter where they are. Business owners, especially retailers are impacted the most as they need to make sure that they hit every touch point available. Interesting enough, with all this digital interaction, Google still reported that 92% of retail still occurs in store.

Why? Because what a customer does before they enter the store has changed dramatically. This occurs across devices and social media platforms so there is no single path to purchase. In fact, Google now states that 72% of people use phones to do research before purchases.

Believe in Micro-Moments

The new mobile reality also dictates that business owners must be present when ever and where ever consumers are searching for information. So, they must begin thinking in terms of “micro-moments.” This is when users are most open and accepting to brands (old or new) to make a purchase.

Consumers no longer care about the store in which they’re making the purchase. What matters most is who gets to them first with the best price and the most positive reviews. So platforms like Review sites like Yelp can play an important role to their success. Micro-moments are ultimately about quick customer decisions about what customers “want.”

This includes:

Watching what they’re into moments – 53% of online video viewers watch online video to be inspired or entertained. YouTube is the number one platform for 18-34 year-olds choose to explore their passions. Seek Knowledge moments – 65% of online consumers look up more information online now versus a few years ago. 66% of smartphone users turn to their phones to look up something they saw in a TV commercial.Ready to go moments – 2X increase in “near me” search interests in the past year. 82% of smartphone users use a search engine when looking for a local business. Ready to do moments – 91% of smart phone users turn to their phones for ideas while doing tasks. 100M+ hours of “how-to” content have been watched on YouTube so far this year

Ready to buy moments – 82% of smartphone users consult their phones while in store deciding what to buy.

People now care less about brand loyalty (especially millennials), just a solution that fits their need when they want it. These micro-moments can quickly determine the winners from the losers. If an organization can anticipate the consumer’s decision and be ready when they’re ready through organic or paid mobile search, they could win the sale and increase brand awareness. For example, B2B can play a major role in “Ready to do moments.” If someone needs to get something done at work that may be utility related like choosing a software program or or seeking information that helps them present with confidence, that business needs

to have a dominant presence in Google Search Engine Results, Pay Per Click and/or YouTube.

Speed Kills

Website user experience is vital to overall success with special emphasis on time to load. Google reports that 53% of potential customers abandon a website that takes over three seconds to load. Last year this number was 40%.

When it comes to mobile optimization, speed can kill a business or ascend it to new heights – so spend the appropriate amount of resources in Google Analytics to ensure that a site is functioning properly. Google Page Speed Insights is a free tool that can determine a website’s current speed. It will even give instructions on how to fix it.

Finally, don’t cringe the next time someone asks to borrow a smartphone – they’re only in the midst of an emergency micro-moment.

Advertise.com has been delivering high-quality traffic to advertisers and publishers around the globe for 13 years.

LOS ANGELES, CA – March 27, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —

Amidst booming high-tech industry, Los Angeles, an Intenet marketing firm Advertise.com led by its CEO Daniel Yomtobian, staying faithful to their longtime dedication to bringing innovations to the online advertising industry, has developed a new InText publisher monetization tool. Set to revolutionize modern ads by enabling profitable keyword search options in users’ page content, this new, text-based advertising product will help website publishers boost their revenue by targeting users’ incoming search behavior and page interests.

The appearance of the solution is both simple and elegant: InText automatically identifies and highlights commercial keywords that advertisers bid on, then triggers relevant text ads when a user scrolls over a highlighted keyword. Because the user sees a related ad in the context of their browsing session, it is likely to be more useful and less intrusive.

“By implementing a keyword-targeted ad unit for related content sites, we hope to create a pleasant viewing experience for the user that is also flexible to the various needs of our publishers, explains Daniel Yomtobian, CEO and Founder of Advertise.com. “So we made InText very easy to implement with a simple JavaScript code—requiring no change to a website’s structure or general design.”

InText joins the network’s comprehensive suite of publisher monetization products, including Banner Ads, Adentify, InterYield, ExitYield, ConversionPlus, and XML Ad Feed. Similar to other products in the Advertise.com portfolio, InText generates revenues for publishers at highly competitive CPC rates.

Advertise.com has been delivering high-quality traffic to advertisers and publishers around the globe for 13 years. With advertising solutions such as contextual pay per click, display, mobile, video and remarketing traffic, Daniel Yomtobian and his team offer full-service digital solutions suitable for businesses large and small. The company follows its mission to provide advertisers with quality traffic that converts, and publishers with competitive listings that yield high revenues. More than ten thousand businesses have used Advertise.com to drive traffic to their website, and 240 million visitors (as verified by comScore) are delivered to publisher websites every month.

Advertise.com was originally founded by Daniel Yomtobian in 2001 as ABCSearch.com, and rebranded in 2009. Yomtobian, who was born and raised in the suburbs of Los Angeles, California, started experimenting with the Internet almost two decades ago when a family friend suggested he learn web design. What started as a two-day HTML course developed into a hugely successful career resulting in a company that Daniel is rightly proud of: “We launched Advertise.com to provide advertisers and publishers with a new value proposition—effective, affordable, and easy-to-use advertising campaigns all under one roof.”

Prior to founding Advertise.com, Daniel launched the online media and advertising company, WayInternet, as well as the search engine, Findology. Today, Daniel is considered a pioneer in the online advertising industry and is acknowledged for his innovative concept. He was recently described by C-Suite Quarterly as a “…young leader [who] will continue to play an important role in shaping the online world of tomorrow.”

The agency recommends a dynamic approach, combining an apology with a proactive solution to a client’s problem.

NEW YORK, NY – March 27, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —

Empirical evidence on the impact of customer reviews has shown that 86 percent of potential buyers will be prompted to hold off purchasing goods or services from a brand that has undesirable reviews on their services online. Leading reputation management firm, IC Media Direct recognizes that negative reviews can have a direct financial effect on businesses. With another survey showing that 9 out of 10 people say they take online reviews ‘very seriously,’ the agency has responded by providing advice on how companies can recover after receiving negative feedback online.

Having enhanced the brand image of Fortune 500 companies, celebrities, politicians, and athletes, IC Media Direct has built an outstanding track record in efficient reputation control. The agency uses a clear strategy for diminishing the unwanted impact of criticism. First, determine if a comment is legitimate. Some information spread online is created by competing brands. The best course of action for this scenario is to request to have the review removed citing its unlikely authenticity. Next, find out if a review is opinion based. In this case, a company has a powerful opportunity to share factual, positive information about themselves, while also diluting the effect of the review. When a customer has left factual, yet negative feedback, then it is time to respond fully and genuinely. The agency recommends a dynamic approach, combining an apology with a proactive solution to a client’s problem.

With respect to difficult situations with existence of significant interaction online, IC Media Direct advises addressing the complaint offline where possible by asking for the customer’s details or requesting to contact them privately. Experts at the firm have noted that this can reduce the impact of any further mistakes and the pressure on the business manager dealing with the complaints.

IC Media Direct is a full-service public relations and content marketing agency, specializing in online reputation management. Its extensive experience with successful recovery from negative online reviews has helped companies and individuals project a positive image and build an efficient message with a strong impact on their audience. In 2015, the agency published a game-changing handbook on Google brand repair and has been awarded the New York Excellence Award by the SBIEC for two consecutive years. IC Media Direct regularly attends well-known industry conferences including Affiliate Summit, ad:tech, and LeadsCon, where it shares its expertise and techniques with businesses from all over the world.

Amaradio suggests that individuals should turn to their churches, a surprisingly exceptional source of consultation for responsible and faithful wealth management.

ALISO VIEJO, CA – March 27, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —

Leading force in financial management, public orator and writer with an impressive array of publications on smart budgeting and faithful control of personal resources, Tony Amaradio, offers insights into key responsibilities associated with debts and faithful money management. Ideally, no family or individual wants to spend more than they bring in. However, when debts are accrued, an obligation to pay them back is also taken on. By implementing diligent fund management and dedicated stewardship, unwanted debts can be resolved through a spiritually fulfilling process that benefits the entire family.

Those overburdened by debt are often forced to turn to consolidators and creditors for assistance. In doing so, only the symptoms are treated, not the formed habits that caused the financial shortcomings. Amaradio suggests that individuals should instead turn to their churches, a surprisingly exceptional source of consultation for responsible and faithful wealth management. With non-mortgage debt eclipsing $2.4 trillion nationwide, religious establishments, Christian radio stations and community outreach groups have begun supplementing financial counsel into their spiritual messages. The senior pastor of Southeast, one of the largest nondenominational churches in the country with over 18,000 worshippers each weekend, believes it is his obligation to do so, “For a church not to provide a service for people who are suffocating from too much debt would be equivalent to burying our head in the sand.” More than 39,000 churches currently offer a mix of basic budget planning, household cost cutting, and deficit management techniques.

Faith based debt reduction provides rules to force changes in spending and saving, and turns to the Bible for context and motivation. In order to be a good steward, God requires the responsible management of capital, as it is all his, “The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.” Psalm 24:1. Amaradio notes that the largest difference between Christian and secular financial planning is the importance placed on tithing and generous giving. Even in times of economic hardship, one-tenth of all household income should be given to the Lord. Philanthropy is also seen as a way to show devotion, and if at all possible, should be incorporated into any budget as a priority. Debt consolidation, however, is not recommended, because it benefits the lender more than the borrower, and statistics show that over three quarters of credit card debt grows back after being consolidated. By committing to a faith based, written plan, overspending habits can be successfully changed and debt can be successfully paid off.

Tony Amaradio is a financial expert, philanthropist, and the founder of two innovative firms, Select Portfolio Management, Inc. and Select Money Management, Inc. After years of assisting clients in establishing, planning, and managing assets, Amaradio recognized the need for a comprehensive, integrated wealth management system. As a result, his handpicked team is responsible for the development and implementation of the most advanced financial and tax strategies available today. In 2009, he and his wife co-authored, “Faithful with Much: Breaking Down the Barriers to Generous Giving.” The inspirational book received exceptional reviews, and shares the couple’s compelling journey to understanding God’s will about money and possessions.

Since its launch almost twenty years ago, the company has drastically shaped online reputations of countless businesses, helping them to enhance their image and increase their revenues.

NEW YORK, NY – March 27, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —

The recently held Search Marketing Expo West (SMX West) is considered one of New York’s most sought-after marketing events of the year, which draws upon national and global market trends. Help-My-Reviews.com – in attendance at this keystone event – offers insights into the latest online reviews management news. This year’s event will be held at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center, just minutes from the San Jose International Airport (SJC). The market leader in reputation and negative review management, Help-My-Reveiws.com, will join the marketing experts in attendance and will present their unique strategy of reviews monitoring to improve online ratings.

Founded in 1996, Help-My-Reviews.com operates from two locations, New York City and Washington, D.C., serving businesses across the United States. Since its launch almost twenty years ago, the company has drastically shaped online reputations of countless businesses, helping them to enhance their image and increase their revenues.

Online rating tools first emerged in 2004 and primarily focused on helping customers find great restaurants in their neighborhood. The service was soon extended to other sectors, such as doctors’ offices, hairdressers, or tax accountants. Today, more and more rating platforms emerge on the Internet, with more than 130 million users going online every month to find recommendations for local products and services.

The marketing professionals at Help-My-Reviews.com know how important online reviews have become for successful business endeavors. Based on that recognition, the talented team has developed an innovative strategy that increases review star ratings as well as the resulting reputation of the business online. Thanks to their brand-new approach, Help-My-Reviews.com can guarantee that any business, regardless of the industry, will exclusively get reviews that are four and five stars.

According to statistics, out of every 100 customers, 95 are happy and only 5 are not. The challenge businesses are facing is that on average only one out of every 95 satisfied customers will leave a positive review. Unhappy customers, on the other hand, are 40 times more likely to leave feedback online, which leads to 1-, 2-, or 3-star reviews. A short video on the “How It Works” page of Help-My-Reviews.com ‘s newly redesigned website explains the process of how review reputation management changes a business’ ranking, placement, and revenue.

Help-My-Reviews.com is a pioneer in review monitoring and online reputation management that combines decades of experience with cutting-edge technologies and customized marketing strategies.

Platforms offering numerous online collaborations and, more importantly, workflow automation are increasing in popularity, largely due to their ability to provide prompt access to accurate and consolidated data and information.

SANTA BARBARA, CA – March 27, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —

As technological advancement increases with time, drastically changing the way businesses operate, Santa Barbara-based property developer Kenny Slaught talks about the value of innovative solutions in the real estate market. As he emphasizes that technological advances have brought America’s real estate industry into the digital age, making the property management sector both more efficient and profitable, Slaught further elaborates on the role of technologies in the housing industry on his blog at KennySlaught.com.

Platforms offering numerous online collaborations and, more importantly, workflow automation are increasing in popularity, largely due to their ability to provide prompt access to accurate and consolidated data and information. New intuitive software and mobile applications, says the owner of one of the most successful property management enterprise in Santa Barbara, give investors and builders a greater selection of lending and borrowing opportunities across a variety of real estate asset classes and geographies. Having been in the market for only a few years, crowdfunding portals have rapidly grown over 150 startups nationwide, specializing in real estate. Today, approximately 7% of the U.S population is an accredited investor. In a highly urban setting like Southern California, this number reaches 20%. Software platforms, such as CrowdEngine, RealtyShares, CrowdForce, among others, made it possible to legally raise money from the general public, with some going as far as attracting 90% of equity requirement through direct community contributions.

California’s crowdfunding or peer-to-peer lending projects emerged after the adoption of the Jumpstart Our Business Startup (JOBS) Act in 2012, which significantly democratized the ways, in which sponsors raise funds for real estate acquisitions and development. The new regulation allowed the previously banned practice of advertising or openly soliciting private funding from accredited individuals and firms. Anyone with a net worth of $1,000,000, excluding ownership of their personal residences, or with an annual income of $200,000 or a household with $300,000 per annum, if filed jointly with a spouse, can become an accredited investor. Kenny Slaught notes that the amendments gave the green light to individual borrowers and lenders to participate in debt and equity financing, where loans generate income in the form of interest, without an official financial institution involved as an intermediary. The online marketplace has created a new avenue for property owners and funders to browse new investment offerings, perform due diligence, access dashboards to track how assets and financial products are performing.

Founder of Investec Real Estate Companies, Kenny Slaught has been in the industry for more than four decades. A dedicated investment strategist, he manages more than 3 million square feet of property throughout California. With total transactions valued above $1.2 billion, Investec has grown to become one of Santa Barbara’s leading real estate firms. An avid philanthropist, Mr. Slaught is involved with many non-profit and community organizations, including Hospice of Santa Barbara, the Music Academy of the West. Contributing to the benefit of youth in the area, he dedicates considerable time to these and other worthy causes.

ICMediaDirect used its time at ASW 2016 to emphasize one of its core capabilities: online reputation management strategy.

NEW YORK, NY – March 27, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —

Renowned Internet reputation management authority, ICMediaDirect presented its most recent online marketing strategies at the Affiliate Summit West (ASW) 2016. Held in Las Vegas, NV, the ASW is a renowned conference for affiliate marketers to share current field developments, attend educational sessions, and engage with other industry professionals. A leading PR visionary, the New York based firm was added to the 2016 lineup to share its unique insight on importance of online reputation management and strategies to implement with other seminar participants.

ICMediaDirect used its time at ASW 2016 to emphasize one of its core capabilities: online reputation management strategy. The full service PR firm has earned worldwide recognition for creating effective digital branding campaigns for businesses in every vertical. One of the organization’s marketing specialists shared that staying ahead of search engine trends plays a major role in the company’s continued success. “When it comes to building any brand, first impressions are everything. Even one negative search result about your company can tarnish your corporate image and dilute consumer loyalty. We use our Internet marketing experience to your advantage, leveraging the very latest Google algorithms. Our job is to consistently modify tactics to yield maximum results for our clients.”

The ASW offers more than a chance to share data with colleagues. Each year the conference also offers exhibitors, panelists, and attendees invaluable networking opportunities as participants from virtually every industry convene to develop and strengthen professional partnerships.
