It was great to see so many of our partners and advertisers who were in town for Ad:Tech last week. We thoroughly enjoyed the quality time spent dining and dancing around town for the week.

After two weeks straight of conference fanfare it’s time for us here at Revenue to buckle down and get back to the grind. Our May email newsletter launched today so be sure to sign up and check it for updates from our editor-in-chief regarding the content we are currently developing for the July/August issue, along with the Affiliate Tip by Gary Marcoccia, Five Questions with Skip Brand from JiWire and the Ask Jim Kukral column.

For our May/June advertisers who have website banner ads included in their campaign, please be sure to deliver your new ad files this week. The May/June print issue will hit the street shortly. And if you’re interested in advertising in the July/August Issue 18 now is the time to secure your ad placement. There are limited premium ad placements so please follow up with our ad sales team to confirm availability. The ad-closing deadline for this issue is May 25. Otherwise it’s just another week of twists and turns here in the Bay Area as we navigate through a freeway meltdown and an improbable NBA playoff run by our beloved Golden State Warriors, who are giving their best shot to the heavily favored Dallas Mavericks.

On that note, whether you are considered a David or Goliath, show me that you are a performance marketer that comes through in the clutch.
