Intermarkets, Inc. Helps Move America Forward Collect an Unprecedented $1.1 Million in Donations for Care Packages for Military Troops
Intermarkets provided valuable advertising and promotion services for Move America Forward's telethon on the Drudge Report and other sites in the Intermarkets Portfolio.
Reston, Va. – August 1, 2008 – Intermarkets, Inc. (www.intermarkets.net) has provided extensive Web advertising and promotion services for Move America Forward’s (www.moveamericaforward.org) recent telethon, which raised more than $1.1 million for care packages to be sent to U.S. troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. The goal for the telethon was to generate the most donations for care packages for the troops in history, with a goal of raising $500,000.
“The number one referral for contributions ‘From the Frontlines’ came from Intermarkets’ promotions on the Drudge Report,” said Melanie Morgan, chairman of Move America Forward. “The total is going much much higher mostly because of Intermarkets’ generosity and expertise in placing advertisements for us on the Web,” Ms. Morgan added.
During this busy election year, Intermarkets has been working with a variety of non-partisan philanthropic organizations, political campaigns and issue advocacy groups to generate interest in their ideas, policies and candidates, as well as raising millions of dollars for the groups and campaigns.
“It’s obvious, and we’ve known for a long time, that the Intermarkets Portfolio site audiences are engaged personally and professionally in the national conversation this election year, and we’re thrilled to be facilitating that conversation in a non-partisan way, and making a positive contribution to our nation’s important dialog,” said Kevin Lucido, chief executive officer of Intermarkets, Inc.
“We’re pleased with the results of our joint efforts with groups like Move America Forward, the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and others, in helping a broad swath of our society, proving the enormous value in reaching out to the Intermarkets Portfolio audiences,” Lucido explained.
Unlike most other media-related firms, Intermarkets is non-partisan, and as an advertising sales management firm, Intermarkets works with a variety of organizations and campaigns that have the expertise and knowledge to understand the Intermarkets Portfolio site audiences and the proven value of reaching out to those audiences.
“Our best and most successful advertising clients are truly savvy Internet marketers who know where the decision-makers are, where the engaged citizens are, and where the best sources of donations are…right here in the Intermarkets Portfolio of sites,” Lucido said. “The results speak for themselves…in the success of organizations that are working with us, as well as in the results of organizations that aren’t,” he pointed out.
Donations may still be made to assist the troops through Move America Forward, by visiting their Website at www.moveamericaforward.org.
