"Marketing is essentially the challenge of delivering the right message to the right people at the right time, and this platform has the impact, precision and reach to make that happen with unparalleled results," said Philip Elias, president and CEO of VELOCITY World Media. "These are two best-in-class marketing platforms aligned to enhance business development by reaching key decision makers who sell your product while also targeting high-value consumers who buy your product."

As an example, Elias described the release of a new elective surgery procedure: The procedure is launched in one evening to an audience of physicians from coast to coast with VELOCITY's experiential television network, and then marketed to high-value consumers in the doctors' local markets via Zoom's placed-based media.

"Ours is a first-of-its-kind partnership that literally provides companies with a new level of integrated precision marketing," said Tom Lapcevic, founder and president of ClubCom, a division of Zoom Media. "Both companies have unique expertise in combining innovative thinking with flawless execution to deliver powerful messages to high-value audiences."
