CPX Interactive Supports the Lustgarten Foundation

CPX Interactive executives, Mike Fleischman ( EVP of Business Development), Gary Bembridge ( EVP of Sales) and David Shay ( EVP of Marketing) attended The Lustgarten Foundation’s annual Holiday Rock & Roll bash last week to benefit the fight against pancreatic cancer. They were among 1,000 guests who enjoyed a rock-and-roll and blues performance by JD & The Straight Shot, as well as a performance by the Radio City Rockettes.

“The Lustgarten Foundation’s commitment to fighting pancreatic cancer over the last 10 years has been amazing,” said Mike Fleischman, CPX Interactive’s EVP of Business Development. “The tremendous support of companies like Cablevision really helps drive awareness and provide funding for accelerated research to help find a cure for this deadly disease.”

Fleischman worked directly under Marc Lustgarten while at Cablevision and looks forward to supporting the Lustgarten Foundation in the future through CPX Interactive.

CPX Interactive Wraps Up ad:tech NYC

ad:tech New York 2009 was a great success this year. With more than 250 exhibitors, the Javits Convention Center was packed with the largest gathering of online marketers.

ad:tech is an opportunity for brands, agencies, publishers and service providers to come together to share, network, learn and do business.

So much hard work went into the setup for CPX Interactive!

CPX Interactive had a great booth location with tons of traffic.

“A lot of our clients are here,” said, Mike Zacharski, VP of Publisher Development for CPX Interactive. “It’s a great time to meet face to face with our advertisers and publishers.”

Some of the main discussions at ad:tech New York included maximizing international markets, increasing digital spending, increased focus on internal communication and innovation with branding.

Thanks to everyone for making this ad:tech New York a success! Check out our video of ad:tech Day 1 ! Or check out our pictures on Flickr.

The ‘Art’ vs the ‘Science’ of Getting the Click

In his article Online Ads Not Working for You? Blame the Creative, Kunur Patel discusses a study that finds that ad placement may be less important than design when it comes to making the big impact that advertisers want. We agree completely.

CPX has been developing conversion-oriented creatives for clients for years. We regularly find that creatives we develop for advertisers have significantly higher click-thru and conversion rates than creatives they have run in the past. While online delivery is focused on numbers, metrics and technology, it is important to remember that there are still underlying principles of advertising that apply.

Among Patel’s suggestions: Highlight the brand throughout the ad, Make each second count, and Stay simple.

Coming Next Week: ad:tech New York

Next week, CPX will be exhibiting at and attending ad:tech NY for the fifth year. New York is one of ten ad:tech shows that are put on each year in seven different countries.  It is “the largest gathering of online marketers,” with more than 200 speakers and more than 250 exhibitors. The event will take place at the Jacob Javits Center in New York City from November 4-6.

Attendees are also given the opportunity to have a place in the exhibition hall, which is free to the public, and provides people with access to a variety of companies in one space. For the first time this year, ad:tech New York will be held at the Javits Center. CPX Interactive will be at booth #1500 (highlighted in black below), right in front of the registration area. Be sure to stop by and say hello!
