There’s no rest for the weary this week as I returned to SF after making the rounds in New York last week. Currently Revenue is preparing to go to press with July/August issue so all hands are on deck as we go through the production drill.

With regard to ad placements in the July/August issue we have one lucky single page ad placement that remains to be filled. If you are looking for a deal and can deliver ad creative by this Friday, June 29, now is the time to make your move and contact us http://www.revenuetoday.com/section/Advertising immediately.

The 2007 LinkShare Symposium and Golden Link Awards are all wrapped up. After a two day whirlwind of conference networking and festivities I’m getting back to you while before I depart NYC and head back home to the SF. The event was first class in every sense and everyone here at Revenue was honored to be nominated for the Performance Marketing Most Vocal Advocate award.

I cannot say enough praises about the tireless commitment and passion that our leader and Editor-in-Chief, Lisa Picarille and her team of writers and designers put into developing the content of the magazine. It was wonderful to see their hard work recognized by the industry in a category that is completely aligned with the mission of Revenue. Congratulations to AffiliateFairPlay.com for winning the award and to Eric Ewe from Wyndham Vacations who was also nominated in this category.

Here we go with some buzzer shots for the week. People are still talking about the last minute of The Sopranos and the last minute of Game 3 in the NBA Finals.

These are two compelling stories, but just slightly less important than your last minute ad placement in the July/August edition of Revenue. Contact our advertising team for more information. The ad creative deadline for the July/August issue is June 22 and this edition of the magazine be distributed at conferences such as: Ad:Tech, Search Engine Strategies, e-Tail, DoubleClick Performics Client Summit, and ClickZ: Online Video Advertising.

It’s another busy week here on the Westside, so let’s get right to it.
