I’m packing my bags for Ad: Tech tonight and will be there Tues – Thurs of this week! Please write back and let me know if you’ll be in attendance and if you’ll have time to meet-up in person : ) In case you haven’t been before, here is a link to the conferences Homepage:

Also, Smarter.com is putting together a Mother’s Day Buying Guide. This Buying Guide will link from our Homepage (4 million+ impressions) and will display a number of featured products from select Smarter merchants. If you are interested in displaying a product in this area, let me know and I can give you more information. We anticipate approx. 50k impressions for the Buying Guide and you will already need to be set up as a Smarter merchant with our CPC (cost-per-click) program to participate.

Keep in mind that if you are not yet set-up with a Smarter account we can establish one for you very quickly thru our online sign-up. Our minimum deposit for beginning an account is $100, and you will receive that deposit back with your first $100 worth of clicks.

~ The weather in San Francisco looks to be nice and cool this week (mid-50’s to 60’s) and after a record-breaking, 90/100 degree-weekend here in Southern California this weekend, that sounds great! Hope to hear from you regarding our Mother’s Day Buying Guide opportunity or to see you at Ad: Tech!

I am glad to have been able to spent the last few weeks in this newsletter talking about Smarter.com’s new Ad Deck! It’s been great going over these opportunities in detail with you via email and the phone as well. To recap, Smarter.com receives over 24 million shoppers per month and now offers:

Classic CPC Comparison Shopping Engine Listing
