New Media Gateway Announces Partnership with ShareThis, Marketers to Integrate Campaigns to Social Networks
May 2009
New Media Gateway Inc., an online marketing technology company specializing in tools that improve sales and marketing processes, announces their partnership with ShareThis. With the popularity of social marketing on the rise, this partnership will offer New Media Gateway's clients an extra opportunity to stretch their marketing efforts to new audiences.
ShareThis is a widget that allows organizations to take content such as an email message and allow it to be shared by target audiences on nearly all social networking sites via email, SMS (text message) or instant message.
New Media Gateway is integrating the ShareThis application into its Digital Marketing Center (DMC) and website Content Management System (CMS) products, which means once a customer posts new calendar events, articles, blogs, listings or sends out newsletters, emails or landing pages a viewer can pick that information and share it to friends, family and groups- all which can be re-syndicated virally. ShareThis, with the help of New Media Gateway, will provide tracking reports on click activity giving clients the ability to fully measure the extent of the viral marketing efforts.
"We at New Media Gateway are ecstatic about the opportunity to be
working with ShareThis. ShareThis is going to be a critical component
for our existing and prospective customers to ensure they can leverage
one of the oldest, and most effective, forms of marketing:
word-of-mouth marketing. This partnership successfully empowers
marketers to monetize social media, which has been the constant
struggle since day one. Users of our Digital Marketing Center and
website Content Management System offering can now virally broadcast
email campaigns, surveys, landing page offers, as well as articles,
listings, event calendars, podcasts, RSS feeds, blogs, image and video
gallery content. In summary, we are very excited." said Vice President
of Marketing, Greg Colunga.
Since marketers are beginning to use social marketing as an extension
of all their campaigning efforts, New Media Gateway wants to add
features like ShareThis to their existing products to maintain the best
and most innovative solutions. This partnership is just one of many New
Media Gateway has taken on in the last 10 years. "We are always looking
to improve our offerings by providing the latest and greatest
technology," said President and CEO Tim Storer, "We know the importance
of social media and are excited to be providing this new feature to our
clients."
