Wow! I am going through certification for IAB right now and am amazed at how much they are…read moreaccomplishing. Digital marketing is such a huge Ecosystem. IAB is doing a fabulous job at putting their arms around all the parts, the data and scope of the challenges that are facing the industry and the businesses who use it. I love that there is an organization who is pulling all the parts of the industry together to provide stability, consistency and a level of professionalism that raises the bar for how the players need to behave. Digital advertising is so vast and with the technology, ever growing. It leaves businesses, large and small, in a position to feel like they are always "behind the times" as they try to thrive in the digital economy! Businesses need to be able to trust the media and technology companies that are responsible for selling, distributing and optimizing digital advertising and marketing. Based on information from the IAB website, the top 650 leading companies that are involved with IAB make up 86 percent of online advertising in the United States. The IAB evaluates and recommends standards and practices and fields critical research on interactive advertising. They are committed to professional development, elevating the knowledge, skills, and expertise of individuals across the digital marketing industry. That is where the certification that I am taking through Multiview Inc in Irving, TX comes in. Their commitment to my professional development, and the fact that Multiview sees that and has made it possible to support me in that objective, is why I wanted to share this important certification review with my fellow Yelpers. I highly recommend that you connect with the IAB and make sure all your marketing staff get the certification. Because the IAB also educates marketers, agencies, media companies and the wider business community about the value of interactive advertising there is a wealth of information on their site that is valuable without the certification process. It will help you know what are the right questions to ask when hiring a media or technology company to help you navigate the vastness of digital advertising. In our fast paced world . . . . . "we want, what we want, when we want it and as quick as possible!" - Interactive Advertising is the way to help your customers accomplish that easily. Thank you IAB for all you do for our industry!

I rate NY AMA four stars as all the conferences and events were too expensive for both members and non-members. They never give enough notice for one to plan accordingly in order to reserve date(s) in one's calendar for events/conferences.

Our company has been working with them for over a year now with redesign, marketing techniques and overall branding assistance and their expertise makes my life so. much. easier. They work like a machine, but with a human touch. Ah, the best kind of consistency. Everything in their correspondence is personal and consistent, with fast turnaround. I've always known that any concerns and questions would be answered immediately and their meetings online and in-person are always pleasant. Get a chance to drop by their office? Well lucky you, because you'll be treated to walking through one of the coolest offices ever. Not convinced of their prowess? Look at their big name clients and plethora of projects they work on. It's nothing less than impressive however, they do it all without a sales-y pitch: they genuinely want you to succeed and make your business boom. Everyone at BFM puts client requests at the helm while their creative team steers, albeit gently and with great advice. Ultimately, the client will call the shots in design and outcome. You'd be wise to tap into all of their resources because let's face it; if you're paying for it, utilize it. However their pricing and plans are quite reasonable for small businesses (if you are one) and you'd be hard pressed to find a local agency that's willing to go to lengths to make you happy. In conclusion and if you're on the fence, you should definitely dive right into Blue Fountain Media. Disclaimer: Despite the deafening tone of advertising cheese in that last sentence, no one paid me a cent to write this review.
