Leave a comment


“What makes the SEO industry in New York [so challenging] is the big pool of competitors who are constantly evolving their strategy. This implies that you must always stay on top of your game and strategy.” — GVATE LLC founder and CEO Olu Ajanwachuku


DALLAS (PRWEB)

SEOblog.com, a site dedicated to educating SEO professionals and connecting business owners with digital marketing experts, has released its exclusive 2019 ratings naming the best 15 SEO companies in New York City and Chicago.

SEOblog.com ranked SEO service providers in New York City and Chicago based on dozens of key quantitative and qualitative factors. SEOblog industry experts examined each digital marketing agency’s website, experience, market presence, client list, portfolio, expert certifications and authorship among other factors in its ranking system.

SEOblog has provided a broad view of companies in a particular city or focus area on various directory pages to help business owners find the expert help they need to grow. This was a new, free offering added by SEOblog earlier this year.

New York City and Chicago are two of the largest metropolitan areas in the United States, with each featuring numerous top SEO service providers that provide a very competitive landscape.

“Chicago’s SEO industry is unique because of the midwestern-engrained work ethic of the people and businesses,” said 97 Switch founder/web designer Jeremy Greenberg. “The best SEO strategy takes time to build up, and Chicagoans frequently understand in many areas of life that the best results are seen when the benefit is sustainable over long periods of time. This means Chicagoans often invest resources for long-term benefit, which is seen within many businesses’ marketing strategy.”

SEOblog.com rankings are updated regularly as the market shifts and new players emerge. SEOblog.com has published more than 1,500 agency listings with more added every day. There is no fee to participate, and the website welcomes all qualified agencies to apply.

“What makes the SEO industry in New York [so challenging] is the big pool of competitors who are constantly evolving their strategy,” said GVATE LLC founder and CEO Olu Ajanwachuku. “This implies that you must always stay on top of your game and strategy.”

Leave a comment



BASEL, Switzerland (PRWEB)

The partnership between Clinerion and OncologyInformationService (O.I.s)) will create a platform for oncology which integrates O.I.s)’s real-world databases with Clinerion’s patient data network, via Clinerion’s patented patient data analytics technologies. The partners aim to establish a real-world evidence (RWE) database from a network of cancer treating institutions which will also allow real-time query of the participating institutions’ electronic medical records (EMRs). This platform will leverage the aggregated data to deliver:

ꟷ epidemiological, clinical and health care research analyses, real world data comparison of treatment algorithms, health economic analyses, identification of target patient groups as requested from pharmaceutical companies for value dossiers and HTAs,

ꟷ an estimation of eligible patients for clinical trial design, identification of sites treating targeted patients, and identification of eligible patients for CROs,

ꟷ real world data analyses for quality of care assessment and epidemiological analysis for medical associations and working groups,

ꟷ quality measurement in cancer care referring to clinical outcomes for treating institutions, and

ꟷ integration of genomic data to complete the clinical data collected in the network.

O.I.s) provides a deep knowledge of treatment algorithms in oncology and hematology and approved methodologies for collection and analyses of treatment algorithms based on longitudinal real-world data from patient files in treating institutions. O.I.s) will provide the Clinerion partnership with access to its established RWE cooperative group consisting of patient organizations and a network of oncologists/hematologists, its real-world databases and its approved methodologies for collecting and analyzing RWE data.

In the partnership, Clinerion will provide PNEx technology as the platform to query both partners’ databases, taking advantage of its fast data collection and real-time update capability.

Respond Fast launches next-generation voice technology using smart speakers for consumer engagement

Leave a comment


https://www.prweb.com/

Respond Fast

“This is the shiny new toy in direct response marketing,” notes Respond Fast founder Mike Gunderson. “Move over, QR codes. Now, VACTA is the ticket to engage your customers and prospects, gather valuable marketing data and lift response.”


HAYWARD, Calif. (PRWEB)

Respond Now, LLC announces the launch of Respond Fast, a Voice Activated Call-To-Action (VACTA) service that uses smart speakers to tap into offline marketing, information sites, surveys, reviews and other interactive platforms. It also helps track campaign attribution.

Respond Fast uses a unique phrase or code printed or announced on offline advertising media, such as a direct mail piece, print ad, collateral piece, TV/radio spot, billboard, signage and product label/packaging. Responders simply say, “[Alexa/Google], Launch Respond Fast,” then are prompted to provide their phrase or code tied to a campaign or prospect outreach. Relevant marketing messaging and calls to action follow.

Depending on the nature of the interaction, the smart speaker can fulfill the request, or gather information needed to follow up via phone, shipping, or digital communication (e.g., text, email, website).

Shiny New Toy With Staying Power

“This is the shiny new toy in direct response marketing,” notes Respond Fast founder Mike Gunderson. “Remember how cool it was to access information via a scanned QR code? How about the novelty of email offers when they first came on the scene? Now, VACTA is the ticket to engage your customers and prospects, gather valuable marketing data and lift response.”

He adds, “It’s frictionless. You see the code, speak it, and voila, you’re connected to a fulfillment protocol. This type of immediacy and ease is fueling the meteoric rise of smart-speaker use, and helping ensure this shiny new toy will maintain its luster for a long time to come. All across the country, smart speakers are fast becoming the preferred method of searching.”

Voice Poised To Revolutionize The Landscape

A late 2018 Contentmarketinginstitute.com article reinforces Gunderson’s view: “How Voice-Activated Tech Will Change Content Marketing…Move over mobile marketing: A little voice is whispering that your time as ‘the next big thing’ is almost up… Actually, that whisper is more of a shout, and it’s ‘Echo’-ing across the digital landscape, as voice-response technology is rapidly emerging as the most disruptive force to hit the industry since the internet became a visual medium.”

An early 2018 study by Capgemini Digital Transformation Institute estimated that already 24% of respondents preferred a voice assistant to visiting a website. Within a couple years, that figure is expected to rise to 40%. The study points out, “Voice assistants will revolutionize ecommerce.”

A March 2019 Techcrunch.com report speaks to the smart speaker boom. In the US, the number of owners grew 40 percent over 2018, “to now reach 66.4 million — or 26.2 percent of the U.S. adult population.” Another 2019 Techcrunch report, citing global growth, notes that smart speaker growth from 2018 to this year will be “82.4 percent, from 114 million units in 2018 to 207.9 million in 2019.”

Listen Up, Brand Marketers

Just as the internet revolutionized marketing perspectives and practices in the nineties, voice-activated assistance is stepping into those shoes today. Notes the Content Marketing Institute article: “…brands can – and should – start to integrate voice-response technology into their marketing plans…there are already over 1 billion voice searches conducted every month, and comScore estimates that, by 2020, 50% of all searches will be voice-based…43% of companies already invest in technology to enable voice marketing, according to a survey taken at the 2018 Digiday AI Marketing Summit.”

Gunderson Direct VP of Accounts, Jeff Tarran, points out, “By 2021, projections predict that smart speaker sales will outpace tablets. No marketing executive can afford to ignore this trend.”

Clear Attribution, Easy Integration Fuel Marketer Interest

Besides lifting response, Respond Fast provides clear attribution and easily integrates into new or existing campaigns. Plus, users can get 100% attribution to their voice campaign offer, creative, audience and marketing channel to accurately chart how each marketing campaign performs. Respond Fast offers easy options for total tracking.

Quickly Set Up Campaigns And Review Results

Setting up a Respond Fast VACTA program is fast and easy. Through one convenient dashboard, users can create the offer, decide how to deliver it, launch the campaign, analyze results and refine/improve subsequent efforts.

Individualized direct mail and the like can further enhance relevant targeting and response using a “unique offer code” for each printed piece. In essence, it’s the voice-activated version of a Personalized URL (PURL), where every recipient gets directed to their personal web landing page.

Visit RespondFast.com for more information, or just tell your smart speaker to “Launch Respond Fast” and use keyword “Trial.”

OLDSMAR, Fla. (PRWEB)

Documented processes, ongoing evaluation and continuous improvement: these are the hallmarks of quality in product development. After months of work and a rigorous audit process, PlateSmart Technologies has been recognized for its commitment to quality with ISO 9001:2015 certification.

“ISO 9001 certification is the international gold standard for excellence in quality management,” said John Chigos, CEO, PlateSmart. “Our customers and technology partners already know the high-quality standards to which we hold our license plate recognition (LPR) solutions — the original software-only LPR solutions. This certification is just another way we continue to set an example for LPR industry.”

ISO 9001 is a set of quality-management standards developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Compliance with ISO 9001 means a company has documented processes for product development, deployment and support that ensure customer expectations are met. It also ensures that the company routinely evaluates these processes and implements improvements as necessary.

PlateSmart worked with Perry Johnson Registrars, an accredited third-party certification body, which after conducting a two-stage initial quality management system process-based audit, granted the company ISO 9001:2015 certification.

“ISO 9001 is more than a certification — it is a mindset,” Chigos said. “PlateSmart is committed to quality and continuous improvement every day. The certification also helps bring standardization to the entire industry by keeping companies honest in their claims and avoiding misleading statements such as ‘99-plus percent accuracy.’”

sonnen and PanTech Design, Partner to Launch the Next Generation of Energy Automation

Leave a comment


https://www.prweb.com/

Adapt Energy and sonnen ecoLinx working together for a better energy future.

Adapt Energy and ecoLinx, together, maximize solar, battery storage, and overall energy use in a home. They are the intelligence behind energy automation.


GRAPEVINE, Texas (PRWEB)

Sonnen, Inc. and PanTech Design are pleased to announce the next generation of energy automation with Adapt Energy and the sonnen ecoLinx intelligent energy management system. Originally launched at CEDIA Expo and Solar Power International in 2018, Adapt Energy was the first software platform to expand energy management into the home automation market by enabling ecoLinx integration with Crestron® and Control4® systems. This year, sonnen and PanTech Design return to both trade shows with significant additions in software and hardware functionality, which will provide homeowners with greater flexibility and control of their energy usage.

From the beginning, Adapt Energy and sonnen ecoLinx provided innovative features including severe weather tracking and response, configurable backup power reserve, and intelligent load management. At CEDIA and SPI 2019, PanTech Design is unveiling the Adapt Energy Panel, an industrial-grade hardware solution that provides direct circuit breaker control. This gives the Adapt Energy and ecoLinx duo greater load management capabilities to power down loads during peak demand times and ahead of a power outage which enables the ecoLinx backup reserve to charge faster.

Another addition to the ecosystem is native integration with Curb® energy monitoring. Curb® brings real-time data on energy use at an individual circuit level directly in the Adapt Energy app. Further historical detail can be accessed in the Curb app. Homeowners will be able to leverage this rich data to make informed decisions about energy consumption and effective use of stored backup power during power outages.

PanTech Design and sonnen will also be showcasing new scheduling functionality and native Nest® and Ecobee® setpoint control. These features enable homeowners to manage daily energy consumption by adjusting temperature to pre-cool the home and power down devices during peak demand times to reduce grid strain and enhance ecoLinx’s time-of-use functionality.

Blake Richetta, Chairman and CEO of sonnen, Inc. commented, “At sonnen, energy automation and ecoLinx are the future of smart homes and a smarter, safer and more dynamic energy infrastructure for homeowners, builders, developers, and the energy industry. With Adapt Energy we are able to control energy down to the individual breaker level, enabling greater energy control, better management of energy supply and demand and ultimately leading to a cleaner, healthier, and smarter energy future for us all.”

Troy Morgan, CEO of PanTech Design added, “Adapt Energy and ecoLinx, together, maximize solar, battery storage, and overall energy use in a home. They are the intelligence behind energy automation. And without the intelligence to know what to shut down and when, to move the needle in the right direction, you’re not going to see the full potential of what energy automation can do.”

Sonnen, along with PanTech Design, will be showcasing a live demonstration of Energy Automation at the CEDIA Expo in Denver, CO, September 12-14 (Booth #3547) and Solar Power International in Salt Lake City, UT, September 23-26 (Booth #2909).

About PanTech Design

PanTech Design is a veteran software development firm specializing in residential automation systems and are the creators of Adapt for Crestron® and Adapt Energy.

About sonnen

The sonnen Group is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of smart energy storage systems and a pioneer of clean, decentralized and networked energy system technologies.

Inspiring Rags to Riches Story from Factory Worker to Iowa Business Leader in “Staney Reeg, Take This Job and Love It” Published by Lone Wolfe Press

Leave a comment


“I just did not want to deal with failure, and I never wanted to go back to one of those factories. That is part of the blessing that has motivated me to become one of the top producers in our industry.” Stan Reeg


DAVENPORT, Iowa (PRWEB)

Iowan businessman and natural story teller Stanley Reeg shares his unexpected and dramatic journey from small town factory worker and son of an alcoholic to a life of wealth, community leadership and philanthropy in “Stanley Reeg, Take This Job and Love It” as told to Rich Wolfe, the prolific author of fifty-two books covering sports and the media. The riveting, fun and fast paced autobiography details the amazing life events that took Reeg from abject poverty to becoming a self-made multi-millionaire in the unlikely world of investments. And along the way, the values and strategies that he employs can serve as practical guidelines for anyone who is interested in finding their bliss and financial success.

“Stanley Reeg, Take This Job and Love It” (http://www.takethisjobandloveit.org) documents Reeg’s road to wealth, which was not the direct, guided path of most in the industry (through education and advantage), but was one of absolute determination, tireless effort, and perhaps just a bit of good luck. Reeg’s compelling “rags-to-riches” tale began in the tiny farming community of St. Donatus, Iowa, home to 140 people. As a ten year old boy, one of seven children living in a house with no furnace or water, with a father whose salary from the local John Deere factory went to drink and a mother whose anxiety led her to several stays in a sanitarium, Reeg wanted a different life for himself and somehow just knew that he would “get rich.”

Overcoming his dysfunctional upbringing, Reeg turned to his faith and to positive thinking to pursue that dream, working his way up in factory jobs, while also doing various side jobs. When the factory where he worked for 21 years closed, he took it as a blessing, and enrolled in a career assessment class where, much to his surprise, he was told that he was best suited to be a securities broker. Undeterred by his lack of experience or a college degree, he landed a job at a prestigious investment firm, and soon became a top producer.

Going on to become one of the countries’ leading financial advisors, Reeg shares specific investment strategies for the many clients he helped to build wealth over the years, as well as those he implemented for himself. Relaying the secrets of his success, Reeg writes, “I might not be the smartest guy, but I can outwork others. I put in the effort.” And he never forgets where he came from, “I just did not want to deal with failure, and I never wanted to go back to one of those factories. That is part of the blessing that has motivated me to become one of the top producers in our industry.”

Beyond asset management and investment strategy, Reeg reveals how he encourages his clients to enjoy the fruits of their labor.

Reeg, himself, enjoys a full life and shares the many interests he has pursued, telling amusing tales of his experiences as an avid exotic car collector, traveler, and golfer. He also demonstrates the gratitude he feels for his success, recalling the many people who helped him on his road to success and by giving back through various charitable donations. Readers can follow along this road from hardship to success when they open the unique dust jacket which transforms into a comic-inspired poster mapping out Reeg’s life and travels through Eastern Iowa.

Reeg motivates, educates, and amuses in this plain spoken reminiscence. His ever present optimism will be an inspiration to anyone whose circumstances seem hopeless, and his lessons in searching for the career that best suits you, and then working harder than the next guy to succeed, is a roadmap for all people looking for fulfillment in the job of their dreams.

Stanley Reeg is a successful and experienced financial advisor with more than thirty years of experience in the industry, and began his investment career with Dain Bosworth in 1985. With clients in multiple states, he is the Managing Director of Investments for The Reeg Team at Robert W. Baird and Company, splitting his time between offices in Davenport, Iowa and Scottsdale, Arizona. Married to his wife Betty for fifty years, they call DeWitt, Iowa home and winter in Scottsdale, Arizona. Together, they can boast 2 sons, Todd and Eric, who enjoy successful careers in the financial services industry.

Also a small town boy, author, Rich Wolfe is a native of Lost Nation, Iowa. Rich played basketball and baseball at Notre Dame, and was the first Davenport Assumption all-state athlete and the first Iowan to play in the Cape Cod College League. He has written 52 books including two top selling profiles of the Chicago Cubs, as well as histories of the St. Louis Cardinals, Philadelphia Phillies, and Iowa Hawkeyes and a best-selling biography of Tim Russert. Says Wolfe, “After writing 52 books, I thought I had seen and heard it all until I met the amazing Stan Reeg and heard his incredible rags-to-riches story.

Simplifying the transaction and making it more convenient has always been our mission and passion.


DETROIT (PRWEB)

Real estate lawyers Linda Orlans and Alison Orlans announced the opening of an eTitle office in Detroit. The mother-daughter team strategically launched the new office to support real estate agents and developers who need property settlements done quickly and efficiently with clear title.

“Simplifying the transaction and making it more convenient has always been our mission and passion,” said Alison Orlans, president and CEO. “We’re committed to providing our clients the security and tools they need to have the best experience possible.”

eTitle’s specialized tools offer clients real-time updates on the status of their settlement package and 24/7 closing opportunities, creating new levels of service delivery. This high-level technology is then paired with top professionals who deliver high-quality service, reshaping the way land title is traditionally done and providing one that offers unmatched knowledge and detail.

While clients can close anywhere and anytime through eTitle, the new office gives local real estate agents and developers a landing place for downtown closings. eTitle is excited to provide local support to clients who are shaping the future of the city.

“It’s our people who make the difference. Not only did we grow up in this area, but we understand the complex land issues that come with Detroit,” said Linda Orlans, founder and executive chair. “We want to evolve past the typical land title company and bring resources and extensive expertise to our clients for a modern approach to title.”
