PR Agency Veteran Joins CustomScoop as VP

I am pleased to announce that we've added a VP of Products & Services.  Jen White, a PR agency veteran who worked for Fleishman-Hillard in St. Louis and has a wide range of PR and public affairs experience, recently joined our team here in Concord, NH.  She's going to be heading up our product development and professional services groups.

Jen will provide great leadership for us internally, but will also play a key role in delivering customers the products and services they need to be more effective and efficient.  It's great to have her on board.  These are busy times at CustomScoop and we'll have more announcements about enhancements to our products and team in the coming weeks.

CustomScoop Podcast Sponsorship

I believe we all have our favorite information resources, whether they’re focused on current events or topics more closely related to our jobs. Having been in the marketing departments of technology firms for most of my career, I was excited to find a Podcast that focuses on the intersection of public relations and technology – For Immediate Release. The twice weekly commentary from Shel and Neville is helpful, thought-provoking and always entertaining.

That’s why I’m proud to announce that CustomScoop has begun a partnership with FIR. While it is a paid sponsorship, Shel and Neville are currently using our product and will be speaking about it on their Podcast from their own experience. In addition to the commentary in the Podcast, an advertisement will also appear on their site, inviting listeners to participate in our two-week Free Trial.

And since Shel and Neville have financed the Podcast almost entirely from their own pockets, we are proud to be contributing to their continued success.

2006 PRSA International Conference

This Saturday, a team from CustomScoop will be flying out to Salt Lake City for the 2006 PRSA International Conference. If you're flying out too, you can visit us at booth #205 to learn more about how our media monitoring solution can help your business.

As an added bonus, anyone who participates in a demo will be entered to win one of three iPods being given away.

I was also excited to learn that PRSA has actually created a blog for the show. So if you're not attending, you'll still be able to find out what people are talking about.
