EL SEGUNDO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Wpromote, one of the nation’s leading digital marketing agencies, today announced that it has acquired Prime Visibility, a New York-based digital marketing agency with two decades of experience. The acquisition, which closed on March 31, 2017, establishes Wpromote’s East Coast presence, expands its offerings into new industries, and increases the firm’s staff to over 330 employees.
Prime Visibility is an award-winning digital marketing agency specializing in paid and organic search, display advertising, social media, email marketing, and web development for clients in the financial services, technology, and Ecommerce industries. Prime Visibility has two offices in New York.
“Our shared commitment to advancing our clients’ business goals through innovative digital marketing campaigns made this combination compelling strategically and culturally,” said Michael Mothner, Founder & CEO of Wpromote. “As The Challenger Agency, we will better be able to serve our national client base—both through our new physical presence on the East Coast and our expanded capabilities in industries like financial services. This builds on our track record of successful acquisitions, and we could not be happier to welcome Prime Visibility’s professionals into the Wpromote family.”
“Our team is so thrilled to be joining Wpromote, and we are all looking forward to what the future holds for our people and our clients,” said Andrea Snyder, Managing Director, Northeast at Wpromote. Snyder was formerly Vice President of Agency Operations at Prime Visibility. “This partnership will build upon our strong work to date, and by joining with Wpromote we will be able to deliver unmatched service and capabilities, underpinned by our combined team’s cross-industry expertise.”
A team of 30 employees from Prime Visibility will continue to serve clients in the financial services, technology, and Ecommerce industries, including CIT Bank, De’Longhi, Silicon Valley Bank, and Publishers Clearing House. The acquisition, which is Wpromote’s second in the last 12 months, will extend Wpromote’s geographic presence to seven locations nationwide.
Prior to establishing a New York office, Wpromote most recently expanded into Denver this past January, adding to its offices in Chicago, San Francisco, Houston, Dallas and its Los Angeles-based headquarters.
