What to expect after being named the Small Agency of the Year

Posted by Rockfish Interactive on Wednesday, March 10, 2010 in Business Insights

Ad Age ArticleOur CEO, Kenny Tomlin, was asked to write an article for Ad Age about the experience that Rockfish has had since the announcement roughly six months ago. Read the article about Rockfish's (Positive) Growing Pains.

In a nutshell:

  1. Satisfaction! "It's incredibly satisfying to be recognized for your hard work, and the team will feel energized and motivated to be part of your workplace."

  2. Talent! "It's not just about the number of (new) heads -- it's about what's in them."

  3. Ring! Ring! "Money does not begin to fall from the sky when the award is announced; you still have to earn the business."

    4. We're honored to have been chosen by Ad Age for this award (and for the A-List Award), and we look forward to giving you more amazing Rockfish news in the near future.

Rockfish CEO, Kenny Tomlin, will be speaking at the next10 conference, which is a global networking and trend conference that brings brands and leading companies together. This year’s conference will take place in Berlin, Germany, on May 11th and 12th.

The BBC has claimed that mobile apps will be as “big as the Internet” with 10 million apps created by 2010. Therefore, a “next app” conference track has been added this year to explore this burgeoning world. As an Ad Age A-List interactive agency focused on solutions for the digital age, Rockfish has placed a stake in the ground as a leader in what’s next.

We hope to see you there!

 

 

New Insta-print Coupon Widget

Posted by Kenny Tomlin on Tuesday, February 16, 2010 in Project Launch

Rockfish Interactive and White Cloud® Bath Tissue have launched an online coupon widget that, when clicked, automatically prints the coupon on the user’s local printer. This technology furthers the advertising-without-interruption mentality that Rockfish Founder and CEO, Kenny Tomlin, often cites when discussing the future of interactive marketing. In this case, the insta-print coupon does not force the reader into a series of printing prompts. Instead, it allows them to quickly continue their reading experience without leaving the site with the coupon offer.

The technology behind the widget provides great flexibility. The corporate content manager can set each site to a number of maximum prints or an expiration date, and the system will automatically remove or replace the widget when either of those limits is reached.

The widget has been launched by the White Cloud® Bloggers, which include (Go get your $1 off coupon at any of the following sites!):

Rockfish is No. 3 on Ad Age's Agency A-List

Posted by Kenny Tomlin on Monday, January 25, 2010 in RFI News

A number of months ago Rockfish was selected by Ad Age as their Top Small Agency of the Year for 2008. As significant as that recognition was, today I have even bigger news. Every year Ad Age publishes their Agency A-List where they select the 10 best agencies in the world regardless of size or specialty and Rockfish was chosen for that distinction! I really can’t put into words how satisfying this recognition is for our company and for everyone who works here. 

I want to personally appreciate and thank you for your support and partnership.   We are a four-year-old agency that has accomplished a lot in a very short period of time and we could have never done it without you! 

Ad Age has the full story and details on their website here.
