MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--DoubleClick Performics the performance marketing division of DoubleClick Inc., today unveiled AffiliateDirect at Affiliate Summit in Miami. Now, for the first time, emerging online retailers and program managers not associated with DoubleClick Performics can license the company's industry leading affiliate marketing technology and access the DoubleClick Performics Affiliate Network.
"Full-service affiliate marketing continues to be a core business for DoubleClick Performics, but now smaller advertisers and those with a dedicated affiliate manager can use our technology and access our affiliate network," said Chris Henger, vice president of affiliate marketing at DoubleClick Performics. "Advertisers can scale and enhance the affiliate marketing channel effectively with AffiliateDirect."
DoubleClick Performics beta tested AffiliateDirect from December 2006 through June 1, 2007. The beta test confirmed that the core technology, previously used only by larger advertisers and internal DoubleClick Performics program managers, proved user friendly for smaller advertisers and external consultants managing multiple programs.
"Boltz Furniture generated new sales immediately upon launching our Affiliate Marketing program with DoubleClick Performics," said Jeff White, managing partner at Boltz, LLC, a beta advertiser and AffiliateDirect client. "The launch process was simple, and the channel has already proven to effectively drive growth for Boltz.com."
AffiliateDirect encompasses a quality network, actively managed by a dedicated team of affiliate marketing experts. Advertisers of all sizes can access the DoubleClick Performics Affiliate Network and utilize the same technology that powers DoubleClick Performics' large, full-service affiliate marketing programs.
"I have worked with Performics on multiple clients over the years and would recommend them as a top network for any serious affiliate program," said Brook Schaaf, of Schaaf Consulting which manages the InTheSwim affiliate program and others with AffiliateDirect. "DoubleClick Performics has great technology, a great reputation, and one of the largest affiliate footprints (number of productive affiliates in the network)."
AffiliateDirect enables advertisers to manage, all aspects of their affiliate marketing programs, including attracting, reaching and paying publishers and tracking and reporting on performance.
"DoubleClick Performics' Affiliate Marketing platform provides our agency and clients with reliable tracking and reporting," said Peter Figueredo, CEO and co-founder of NET Exponent, an online performance marketing agency, "I have been impressed with their willingness to listen to our suggestions and implement improvements that will help us drive better results for our clients."
