Crossroads Public Relations and M-pact Marketing Partner to Launch aiMatch

Integrated Public Relations and Marketing Program Helps New Ad Technology Company Build Immediate Industry Awareness

Raleigh, NC (Vocus) May 12, 2010

Crossroads Public Relations and M-pact Marketing today announced the successful launch of aiMatch, an early-stage online advertising technology company. Together, the two firms created an integrated marketing and public relations program to support the company’s official launch and limited availability of its online advertising technology platform.

The two companies started with a key messaging workshop, which served as the foundation for all other programs and deliverables. M-pact went on to develop aiMatch’s brand identity and design, including corporate name and logo as well as website design and marketing message. Crossroads Public Relations was responsible for creating and distributing the company’s launch press release and managing all media relations in the US and UK.

"Having taken a previous company to global market leadership, we understand the importance of marketing and PR to reach our goals and deliver our unique message to the industry," said Jeff Wood, CEO of aiMatch. "Their partnership provided aiMatch with a comprehensive scope of services to fully meet the needs of our growing company, a driving force behind our successful launch. We look forward to a continued relationship with both firms as we expand aiMatch's reach in the online advertising industry."

Building on that successful launch, M-pact and Crossroads will continue to provide integrated marketing and public relations support, serving as an extension of the aiMatch team.

“Working with aiMatch was especially exciting for us, since we were able to provide them with a full range of marketing services to help launch the company,” said David Buffaloe, President of M-pact Marketing. “We look forward to working collaboratively with aiMatch and Crossroads PR to provide the full scope of marketing strategy and execution to build on the success of the launch and grow the business.”

“It is exciting to be working with both aiMatch and M-pact Marketing again,” said Shawn Ramsey, Founder and CEO of Crossroads PR. “The launch of aiMatch was a great opportunity for Crossroads to leverage our knowledge in the online advertising and digital media space. We are now focused on helping them build even more recognition and expand their reach in those industries.”
