New York, NY (PRWEB) November 29, 2012
MediaWhiz, a leading integrated digital media agency, today released results from the first six months of managing clients click-to-call campaigns in partnership with RingRevenue. Total calls into MonetizeIt, the MediaWhiz affiliate network, nearly quadrupled from the second to third quarters of 2012 as a result of the integration of RingRevenues patented call performance-marketing technology. Calls driven through the network increased 64 percent during that time period.
Were very impressed with the performance of our click-to-call campaigns run in partnership with RingRevenue, said Peter Klein, senior vice president of media services at MediaWhiz. Results of the partnership indicate it offers a lucrative opportunity for advertisers and publishers to increase their lead-conversion rates.
MediaWhizs partnership with RingRevenue began in February 2012.
The partnership has helped MediaWhiz double the number of advertisers earning revenue from click-to-call campaigns run through MonetizeIt. In addition, click-to-call conversion rates in the network are 20 percent, exceeding the industry average.
Publishers in the network earning commissions from click-to-call campaigns have similarly benefited, with a more than 160-percent increase in earnings-per-publisher.
The programs growth is attributed to the technical integration between RingRevenue and MonetizeIt. The partnership allows for easy set-up of click-to-call campaigns, giving publishers the ability to track campaign metrics and optimize in real time.
According to Tracy Norton, MediaWhiz director of strategic marketing partnerships, MediaWhizs partnership with RingRevenue represents a new revenue stream for the company.
The biggest driver of results for clients has been the click-to-call aspect of the program, said Norton. Typically, mobile traffic from lead forms is subpar compared to desktop traffic from lead forms. The ability to drive relatively inexpensive live leads directly to a clients call center has made a significant difference in converting mobile click-to-call leads.
By placing RingRevenues technology on calls MediaWhiz is further able to address clients filters and demographics. The technology also helps prevent “pocket dials” unintentional mobile phone calls made from a consumer’s pocket that often plague mobile click-to-call campaigns.
We are now able to track call duration on behalf of clients, allowing them to develop programs specific to call duration and other caller quality criteria in order to convert good leads, said Norton.
RingRevenue CEO Jason Spievak predicts future growth opportunities for MediaWhiz clients that utilize the agencys click-to-call campaigns.
MediaWhiz is experiencing the kind of growth that RingRevenue consistently delivers to the agencies and networks on our platform, said Spievak. Now their clients can look to MediaWhiz for the complete range of performance marketing solutions.
Partnering with RingRevenue has enabled MediaWhiz to expand its marketing optimization tactics beyond opportunities focused mainly on actions resulting from a click, such as online purchases, and lead-form completions, to those completed with phone calls. In many of MediaWhizs most successful verticals, such as home services, health care, insurance and higher education, phone calls are preferred.
Phone calls are valuable to many of our clients, said MediaWhizs Klein. The ability to create, track and measure call-based campaigns via RingRevenues technology gives us three distinct advantages. First, we are able to drive more value for our existing clients who are looking for more phone calls from potential customers. Second, we are able to attract new clients we werent previously working with who value phone calls. Finally, we can expand our clients distribution by leveraging the mobile and local channels in a more impactful manner with call-based campaigns.
