GovSpend Helps Companies to Recession-Proof Their Business

A government cannot stop spending even during a recession because it has a responsibility to ensure the continued delivery of services to its constituents.

Deerfield Beach, FL – August 20, 2020 /MarketersMedia/ —

After the financial crisis of 2008, the US market entered into a boom phase that ultimately became the best and longest bull run since World War II. However, periods of robust growth and economic prosperity are inevitably followed by a downturn as ups and downs constitute a natural part of the business cycle. “Over the past two years, many analysts have been warning businesses and consumers to prepare for a recession. Typically, making an accurate prediction on this matter is a futile exercise unless some particularly disruptive event occurs, a prime example being the current pandemic,” says GovSpend, a leading technology company that has built the most comprehensive database on government spending. “As the public health crisis causes the US economy to slow dramatically and severely curtails access to international markets, American enterprises are in desperate need of sales opportunities to remain solvent. Doing business with the 90,000 US governmental agencies (federal, state, and local) is among the few viable routes for companies to pursue. Since the early cases of the virus were reported in the United States, GovSpend, which helps corporations sell to the government, has experienced dramatic growth.”

Unlike traditional buyers, a government cannot stop spending even during a recession because it has a responsibility to ensure the continued delivery of services to its constituents. US government agencies will be among the few organizations that will actually be spending more money in the months ahead, GovSpend notes. The administration has already authorized over $2 trillion in additional federal spending – an amount that does even include the additional state and local relief packages. With a recession looming, companies can dramatically improve their fighting chances if they secure customers in the public sector. GovSpend offers three resources that can immediately assist firms in winning government business and not only weather the current storm but uncover opportunities for future growth.

The platform developed by GovSpend houses a massive database of government purchase orders, revealing what agencies are buying, from whom, and at what price. The company also offers GovQuote, which is a free resource where government agencies post requests for quotations (RFQs), and it has proved immensely helpful, allowing enterprises to win government business within mere hours. Another invaluable tool is GovSales University – an online set of classes educating companies on how to sell to the government. This powerful collection of resources provides commercial organizations with all of the information they need to win business from the government. One recent example demonstrates the advantages of diversifying into the public sector: an agency posted an RFQ for 174 laptop computers and awarded a $154,000+ contract within just 48 hours.

Founded and led by veteran business executive Jeff Rubenstein, GovSpend is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions provider that has achieved national recognition for building a unique database. Its proprietary platform aggregates purchasing data directly from local, state, and federal government agencies, offering vendors and buyers powerful search, analytics, and reporting capabilities. GovSpend has made it its mission to maximize the efficiency of the purchasing process in the government marketplace, enabling all parties to derive tremendous benefits by identifying the most attractive propositions.

Daniel Yomtobian Observes the Prognosis for the Digital Advertising Sector

Digital advertising has enjoyed a decade of robust growth.

Los Angeles, CA – August 20, 2020 /MarketersMedia/ —

The entire world has been affected by the global pandemic over the past months, including many aspects of life and business. While economies in many countries are expected to suffer contractions, the digital advertising sector discovered new opportunities to thrive. “Advertising has always been an industry quick to evolve with the times, devising new formats to reach consumers in an increasingly connected world,” notes Daniel Yomtobian, an entrepreneur and corporate executive with an established reputation in the online media space. “While the timing and strength of a global economic revival remain uncertain, the digital advertising market has held up relatively well and is expected to stage a swift recovery once business activity returns to normal. Moreover, there are indications that social distancing measures and quarantines are driving changes in consumer behaviors, most notably a strong pivot towards online and mobile services. This is likely to create additional opportunities for digital advertisers and help them rebound faster.”

Boosted by the proliferation of mobile devices, the rise of social media platforms, and the boom in online shopping and streaming services, digital advertising has enjoyed a decade of robust growth. As Daniel Yomtobian points out, it now accounts for more than half of total ad spending, and its share is projected to increase further. Before the pandemic started affecting the market, digital ad spending was forecast to reach $335 billion in 2020, rising to $517 billion by the end of 2023, according to estimates published on Statista. In a report released last August, Grace Research Data said the global digital ad market would deliver a compound annual growth rate of 11.3% between 2019 and 2026 to hit $664.7 billion in value. Although forecasts are being revised to account for the impact of the pandemic, most analysts and industry players expect the sector to weather this storm relatively well with support from several verticals. While travel, hospitality, and traditional entertainment have been battered, there has been excellent news from other quarters: food delivery, software (especially messaging and video conferencing solutions), streaming services (films, gaming, and music), home improvement, and hobbies are areas that have seen a spike in popularity and a related increase in digital advertising budgets.

Market analysts and economists are wary of committing to projections for a specific recovery timeframe, but most appear to expect some relief during the second half of the year and a pronounced upturn in 2021, Daniel Yomtobian comments. In the digital advertising sector, there are signs of tentative optimism, as suggested by a recent poll from the European division of the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB). A large proportion of the respondents, which included both buy- and sell-side operators, reported a 25% drop in second-quarter spending and trading, but the majority were upbeat about the third quarter of 2020. Among buy-side participants, 60% expect some degree of improvement, the proportion rising to 67% for sell-side respondents. Additionally, the poll revealed impressive growth during the pandemic in ad spending across several verticals: healthcare topped the list with 42%, fast-moving consumer goods and entertainment each registered an increase of 35%, retail saw a 23% rise, and electronics achieved a 22% uptick. In another sign of guarded optimism, eMarketer made only a slight revision to its 2020 forecast for global advertising expenditure, amending its previously projected growth rate from 7.4% to 7%, or from an estimated $712 billion to $691.7 billion.

Starting out as a web designer, Daniel Yomtobian quickly realized that his true passion was online advertising. Considered a pioneer and innovator in this space, he has dedicated himself to helping advertisers and publishers maximize their ROI and successfully monetize their solutions. In 2014, C-Suite Quarterly described him as a “…young leader [who] will continue to play an important role in shaping the online world of tomorrow.” Daniel Yomtobian studied business marketing at California State University-Northridge.

Daniel Yomtobian Evaluates the State of the Programmatic Advertising Sector

When it comes to advertising technology, programmatic has emerged as one of the most important developments in this field.

Los Angeles, CA – August 20, 2020 /MarketersMedia/ —

Because digital is constantly increasing its share of total advertising spend, advertisers need to know how to work with new formats. They also have to deliver their artistic work to the target audience in a way that brings profit. Since the earliest days of the industry, ad space buying has been pivotal to the success of brand campaigns, and placement has become even more crucial in the digital age, which has led to exponential growth in programmatic advertising. “The current global pandemic has undeniably affected all sectors of the global economy, and the advertising industry has been no exception. As companies grapple with eroding revenues, previous growth projections are being downgraded, but a streak of optimism remains,” comments Daniel Yomtobian, an entrepreneur and business leader with an impressive track record in the online media space. “The disruption created by the pandemic has only accelerated the digital transformation and the demand for online services, which should play to the advantage of advertisers when the economy rebounds towards the end of 2020, as anticipated.”

When it comes to advertising technology, programmatic has emerged as one of the most important developments in this field and a designated key driver of future growth for the industry. As defined by the Digital Marketing Institute, “Programmatic ad buying […] is the use of software to buy digital advertising. Whereas the traditional method includes requests for proposals, tenders, quotes, and human negotiation, programmatic buying uses machines and algorithms to purchase display space.” The results of this automation are a hugely expanded reach, far greater transparency, advanced targeting, sharply improved relevance, real-time reporting, and data insights. Given these benefits, it is hardly surprising that programmatic has become one of the fastest-growing ad market segments, and once the global economy returns to normal, spending in this area should quickly recover, according to Daniel Yomtobian. It will probably take slightly longer to reach the levels forecast in the pre-pandemic days, but growth is inevitable, especially with the additional boon provided by the arrival of 5G and the continuous launch of direct-to-consumer streaming services.

In 2019, the market for programmatically sold advertising topped $100 billion in value, according to Zenith. The company forecast an increase to $127 billion in 2020, with another $20 billion added by end-2021. Moreover, it projected that the share of programmatic within total digital media spend would rise from 65% in 2019 to 69% in 2020 and cross 72% in 2021. Commenting on the outlook, Zenith global brand president Matt James said, “The ongoing death of the cookie means that the industry needs to rethink the way we design targeting and personalization while respecting consumers. High-quality, first-party data is more vital to the success of programmatic marketing than ever before.” James also highlighted a number of issues, noting, “Although programmatic ad spend continues to grow at double-digit rates, it is being hindered as the industry struggles with privacy and supply-chain challenges. Once these challenges have been addressed, programmatic marketing has the potential to accelerate again during the next decade.”

Daniel Yomtobian Highlights the Key Metrics to Track in Social Media Campaigns

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / August 20, 2020 / For better or worse, social media have become woven into the fabric of modern life to the extent that no brand can afford to ignore these platforms when creating its marketing campaigns. Despite the incredible opportunities presented by social networks, there are also significant challenges for advertisers, especially in terms of deriving actionable insights from the enormous amounts of data generated through social media participation. Daniel Yomtobian, a highly respected entrepreneur and business leader in the online media space, comments, "Tracking metrics to determine the success of a brand campaign or the effectiveness of a marketing strategy can be a daunting task since there are too many numbers to consider. However, advertisers now have access to sophisticated analytics tools, which leaves the question of which metrics carry weight in social media. The challenge is to identify the relevant data because the important numbers will be those closely linked to the specific business goals attached to the social strategy."

The huge body of social media metrics may seem like rough waters to navigate, but this multitude can be grouped into four main categories: awareness, engagement, conversion, and customer metrics, Daniel Yomtobian explains. While every element in these categories can offer valuable insights, its overall usefulness will be determined by its contribution to the business objective in focus. In the awareness category, the most important metrics for social media strategists to track are brand awareness, audience growth rate, post reach, potential reach, and social share of voice. Generally speaking, this category provides numbers that reveal the current audience a brand has and the potential new additions. Engagement metrics are perhaps the most widely tracked group, possibly because these numbers are the easiest to obtain, but they are considered of little use when it comes to measuring return on investment (ROI) or customer lifetime value (CLTV). These so-called "vanity metrics" include likes, shares, comments, followers, views, impressions, traffic, and bounce rate. Even though they may not be helpful in measuring business goals, engagement metrics are still important because they allow brands to optimize their content.

With regard to determining the effectiveness of a social media campaign in terms of generating sales or prompting another desired action, the metrics in the conversion category are deemed the best indicator, says Daniel Yomtobian. Among the key stats to track here are conversion rate, bounce rate, social referral traffic, click-through rate (CTR), cost per click (CPC), and cost per thousand impressions (CPM). The collective data will provide insights into the value of the content for the target audience and determine whether marketers are getting solid returns on their investment. As for customer metrics, these are essential for any brand that wants to be perceived as credible, trustworthy, and committed to keeping its clients happy. In addition to tracking customer testimonials, marketers should also consider utilizing customer satisfaction and net promoter scores, using these additional data to pinpoint areas in need of improvement and refine their message.

Daniel Yomtobian rose from the ranks of web designers to become one of the most prominent CEOs in the online media space. His passion for innovation and product development has been recognized through multiple awards, among them the SFV Business Journal Top 40 Under 40 Award. In 2014, C-Suite Quarterly described him as a "…young leader [who] will continue to play an important role in shaping the online world of tomorrow." Daniel Yomtobian has been instrumental in the success of several business ventures, focusing his efforts on his number one goal – driving advertiser value.

Elizabeth Prairie, Owner of the Digital Marketing Agency Social Static, is Featured in Forbes Article about TikTok

In the Article, Which Was Published on August 14, 2020, Prairie Discusses Five Growth Hacks for the Popular Video Sharing Social Networking Service

SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY / ACCESSWIRE / August 20, 2020 / Elizabeth Prairie, Owner of the Digital Marketing Agency Social Static, is pleased to announce that she has been featured in a Forbes article about the best growth strategies for TikTok.

To learn more about Social Static and the social media marketing services that they offer, please visit http://www.socialstatic.co.

In the article, which ran on August 14, 2020 and is titled "Five TikTok Growth Hacks You Need To Know," the author noted that TikTok has definitely taken the world by storm. In addition to teens who use the platform to share their dance moves and other entertaining short videos with their friends, Prairie knows that TikTok can also be an effective marketing strategy for businesses.

Prairie, a self-described "Digital Nomad" has seen firsthand how challenging it can be for business owners to generate organic exposure on other social media websites like Instagram. However, she told the author of the article, TikTok can be an effective way for business owners to get the word out about their companies-all with no dancing required.

As Prairie noted in the article, the first step for an effective TikTok experience is for business owners to be authentic and find their audiences.

"TikTok is all about being genuine, it's about having fun and not taking yourself too seriously," she said, adding that users will recognize this and be more likely to press "follow" or "like."

"Unlike most of your content platforms, your content can (and should be) fun and playful. Show your personality through your videos, and let your audience get to know you in ways you don't usually show through a photo grid on Instagram."

Another way to effectively harness the power of TikTok, Prairie noted in the Forbes article, is to use hashtags. As Prairie explained, using a hashtag will not only mean the person will get on the page for that hashtag; it's also how the TikTok algorithm will know who to show the content to.

"So, if you're posting personal finance tips, using a hashtag like #personalfinance will get your video in front of the eyeballs of your perfectly curated target audience: users who have already engaged with related videos in the past," the article noted.

The other TikTok hacks that Prairie discussed in the Forbes article are: to sign up for the free Pro Account on TikTok in order to access analytics; to optimize the bio as much as possible and to research what is currently trending on the platform.

About Elizabeth Prairie:

Elizabeth Prairie is the Owner of the Digital Marketing Agency Social Static.

Living With an Alcholoic during Covid | Couples drug rehabs Admits Skyrocket

A 2016 study published in the Industrial Psychiatry Journal said that an obsession with drinking causes alcoholics to forget their loved ones, such as their children, grandchildren, and other family members

Huntington Beach, United States – August 20, 2020 /MarketersMedia/ —

Heavy drinking by family members can destroy the foundations of a family, and families often experience the effects of alcoholism on their children, grandchildren, and grandchildren.

The psychological effects of living with an alcoholic, including anxiety and depression, are often accepted by the spouse. Alcohol addiction can consume people, causing them to lose sight of their family responsibilities.

A 2016 study published in the Industrial Psychiatry Journal said that an obsession with drinking causes alcoholics to forget their loved ones, such as their children, grandchildren, and other family members. Study co-author Dr. Michael J. Schoenfeld agreed.

Previous research has shown that wives of alcoholics show negative emotions towards their partners with alcohol problems. These emotions damage the woman’s family by lowering self-esteem and reducing the overall quality of life. Alcoholic men contribute to a stressful and traumatic domestic environment that plagues their wives.
Experts consider alcoholic men and women codependent, according to a 2008 study published in the journal Family Relations. The authors defined a codependent wife of an alcoholic as a woman who continues to behave alcoholically to feel safe, increase her self-esteem, and gain a sense of identity.

The family is getting used to alcoholism to stabilize their system, and the family will begin to assume the duties and roles of alcoholics, Lander said. Alcoholics don’t usually work, but some families do, “and they will start to take on the duty and role of alcoholics,” she said, according to the study.
Calling an employer to apologize for a spouse’s hangover minimizes the real problem facing the family, and job loss can be a crucial element for some families, Leonard said. In an interview with DrugRehab.com, he said he disagrees with the term codependency.

Couples Inpatient Treatment
The most comprehensive couples drug addiction rehab program is the couple’s inpatient rehab. Couples’ inpatient drug addiction treatment requires the addicted couple to stay in residence generally in the recovery facility where they experience their treatment, and the amount of time they are there depends on how hard they work on handling their addictions and gain healthier patterns of behavior.

Couples inpatient rehab will first include detoxification, with or without the use of medications and pain pills; their composition will depend both on whether the addict’s body can handle any more chemicals, and whether those operating the program believe going ‘cold turkey’ when withdrawing is the best barrier to later substance abuse.

The addicted couple will likely enjoy their days learning to take accountability by having jobs appointed to them once the detoxification is over, going to individual and group therapy sessions, and getting at the heartfelt causes underlying their dependencies. The whole program can last for a month or a year, depending on the severity of the addiction. Couples inpatient drug addiction rehabilitation is the last resort and the most successful.

Healing techniques in couples inpatient treatment facilities may involve journaling so that the addicted couple can learn self-observation talents and how to identify the situations in which their desires for drugs are triggered.

Living with an alcoholic is not easy, especially when it is your love partner. Choosing the right path and couples program could be the difference between life or death.
