Did I actually say that last week was one of the busiest weeks I can remember? Well, apparently I was wrong because we are knee deep in deadlines this week and I barely have time to update you on the advertising side of Revenue.

First and foremost if you are advertising or planning to advertise in the upcoming May/June Issue 17 your ad creative materials are due this Friday, April 13. For those that are superstitious I highly recommend you deliver your ad materials on Thursday.

To follow up on the launch of our April email newsletter - we reported a newsletter open rate of 24 percent and a click through rate of 33 percent. Our May email newsletter is scheduled to launch on Wednesday, May 2. If you are interested in securing a banner ad within the newsletter, please follow up with our ad sales team to confirm availability. The May newsletter ad creative deadline is April 25.

If you happen to be New York City this week for the Search Engine Strategies conference be sure to pick up your copy of the March/April issue of Revenue, which is being distributed to all conference attendees.

And for those looking to combine a little business and leisure we just confirmed a media sponsorship with the CAP Spring Break conference taking place June 8-10 in the Bahamas.

I’ll be chained to my phone and keyboard over the next several days so it shouldn’t be too hard to track me down if you need anything.
