eROI Days Email Agency

Dylan Boyd, our VP of Sales & Strategy, Maureen Pimley, our VP of Client Services & Operations, Sam White, our Creative Director, Chris Masagatani, our AE and soon to be eROI New York office Director, and I just returned back to P’town from an amazing 4 day trip to New York City. It solidified our decision to open an office there after meeting with strategic partners like KickApps, HBO, Ogilvy, Return Path, MediaPost, RidgewoodTV, and the Mixx Agency. We checked out several shared office places and are most likely going to settle into an office in Union Square in Manhattan.

We also attended and spoke at the MediaPost OMMA East show which had an unbelievable number of online marketing stars from Google, NBC, and others in the social networking space where the highlighted hot topics revolved around “widgets” and professionally-produced video content mashup up with user-generated video content to form very real and believable, engaging content driving media sites.

As an entrepreneur, I couldn’t be more excited about the opportunity to grow our relationships and connections in NYC, but I also have to admit that it’s a little nerve-wracking with how expensive it will likely be. It’s clearly a risk worth taking and I have the utmost confidence in my team (and especially Chris who is going to be starting up the office there) making this a huge success. Our partners and clients in New York have already extended unbelievable generosity and hospitality. Thank you to all of you who have opened your doors to us (literally and figuratively). Thx!
