Street level views of marketing & advertising in Idaho
Of course you do. Everyone does.
The question is, are you willing to say it in this space and put your name on it?
If you do and you are, then let’s talk. Guest articles / submissions are always welcome here at the Idaho Ad Agencies blog, so if you’ve got an idea, observation, or opinion that you’d like to share with the readers, send it on over.
Just a quick note — there’s some fine-tuning going on around the Jobs section of the site, and the types of back-fill job listings that are included.
Hopefully this will help to get rid of some of the irrelevant jobs that end up in the list.
Stay tuned.
Well, for our friends over at Balihoo, that answer is to “expand sales and marketing efforts as it continues to build its impressive roster of national clients.”
Or translated:
Balihoo raised $7 Million in new funding recently to “help national brands market themselves at the local level.” It was covered elsewhere last week, but it was worth noting here as well.
The funding was led by OpenView Venture Partners, with additional contributions made by existing investors Highway 12 Ventures and Lacuna Gap Capital.
Congratulations to the team over at Balihoo, and we expect to continue to see good things coming from them.
