TARGETPOINT ANNOUNCES CREATION OF NEW CPA DIVISION, EARLY STAGE DEVELOPMENT OF CONVERSION TECHNOLOGY
In a surprise to even its own
employees, Targetpoint's CEO, Or
Kuntzman, announced the creation
of a separate division
responsible for implementing the
CPA and agency strategic
alliances formed following
Ad:Tech in September. Since
August 1 of this year, the
company has added five new
employees in Israel. Before the
end of the year, Targetpoint
will be adding another ten to
fifteen employees in the Global
Sales and Business Development
Departments.
In
addition, Kuntzman let it be
known that the company has been
developing a new technology that
will be able to track
conversions while matching
advertisers with publishers.
"The biggest concern
for advertisers is that users
click and then purchase a
product or service while keeping
costs to a minimum. For
publishers, they want to earn
the most out of the displayed
ads. In the near future,
Targetpoint will have the
ability to track conversions and
know which ads perform best on
which websites. This will be
highly valuable to everyone
involved," said Kuntzman.

NEW PRODUCTS ADDED TO GROWING INVENTORY OF EXPANDING BUSINESS
Following its highly successful
participation at the Ad:Tech
conference in London at the end
of September, and the closing of
five major strategic
partnerships, Targetpoint has
today released the first wave of
new products since the company
was founded in 2004.
Until today, Targetpoint has
offered its AdPoint contextual
links to over 5,000 registered
publishers in its network.
Following the creation of
Targetpoint Premium (a division
of its Global Sales Department),
the company has moved to add
rich media to its inventory.
New products include
UnderPoint (pop-unders) and
ImagePoint (banners).
Targetpoint's highly competitive
CPM for publishers puts it on
the map as one of the few
companies providing contextual
links and rich media worldwide.
"No country is out of our
reach, and no country will be
ignored. We look at the whole
world as open for business in
the evolving advertising market.
Where Google and Overture have a
toe, Targetpoint will have its
two feet", stated CEO Or
Kuntzman.
Kuntzman further stated that
the company's research and
development has been developing
its own technology to provide
it's own inventory of rich media
products.

TARETPOINT ANNOUNCES NEW GLOBAL SALES DEPARTMENT:
TARGETPOINT PREMIUM
Targetpoint today announced it is
expanding operations and has created
a new department to attract
high-quality publishers.
Founder and CEO Or Kuntzman
unofficially launched "Targetpoint
Premium" at the Ad:Tech conference
held in London from the 28th and
29th of September. Among Kuntzman's
goals are to directly compete
against its main rival, Google.
"Our current network of over
5,000 registered publishers has
proved the success of Targetpoint's
technology and personal approach
with publishers. We will apply the
same professional approach,
technological advantage, and
business effort to the highest
quality websites out there," said
Kuntzman.
"Publishers now have a
reasonable alternative that can
offer equal or better prices per
click than our rivals. From today,
Targetpoint places itself in line of
international players for effective
delivery of targeted
advertisements."
Among Targetpoint's goals are to
deepen its presence in markets where
the battle lines have yet to be
drawn. This includes China and most
South American countries. The
company intends to continue to fight
for new business in the North
American and Western European
markets. The company continues to
develop strategic partnerships in
order to implement its new business
plan, adopted September 1 of this
year.

REAL TIME REPORTING FOR PUBLISHERS AND AGENCIES
Targetpoint today re-released its
online administrative and reporting
system to include updates every
fifteen minutes. Such real time
reporting gives publishers instant
access to their revenues and
agencies immediate real time control
over expenses.
"Our online system is meant to be
user-friendly. It also has to be
friendly to people's budgets. We
understand the control agencies want
and the results publishers need.
Each have important goals, and
Targetpoint recognizes that time is
one of the most important factors in
the online advertising industry,"
said CEO Or Kuntzman.
Targetpoint's technology
continues to wow those who have
experienced it. The addition of
updated reporting in fifteen-minute
increments keeps every publisher and
agency in sync with what's happening
"now".
Kuntzman added that, "Often,
publishers and agencies are forced
to wait an hour or 24 hours to see
what's happening. That's not only
unfair, but, financially, it can be
disastrous. Our company seeks to
compete on a higher level – delivery
of ads and campaigns is not the only
concern. There are other questions,
like, "how much is this costing us
and is it cost-effective?"
The company continues to develop
new technologies as it seeks to
expand its reach into areas
currently dominated by its main
rival, Google. The real time
reporting gives Targetpoint an
upper-hand against major players in
the market today.

master of effective online advertising and marketing campaigns," Kuntzman added.
