It is with great excitement that I communicate today the acquisition of Red Aril by iCrossing (a unit of Hearst Corporation). For me and the rest of the Red Aril executive team (Kira Makagon, Sasha Berman, Kiril Tsemekhman and Carol Eckardt) today's news marks the end of one phase and the beginning of another on our journey. Being part of the iCrossing and Hearst family means Red Aril may now offer our clients a new opportunity: integrated, personalized marketing campaigns and real-time audience relationships at scale.

It's cliché that spring is a time of change, and for both Red Aril and the marketing industry overall, that was true.

Leading publishers are implementing data management and optimization platforms (DMPs), and the business media is taking note. This week Steve Smith at MediaPost's Behavioral Insider blog and Kristina Knight at BizReports published interviews with me about how publishers are using DMPs. Both are good reads that underscore the importance of leveraging data for audience insights that can be used for targeting and personalization.

We’re excited to release the new Red Aril website today – trumpeting the success of the Red Aril Data Management and Audience Optimization Platform (DMP). Maybe you’ve been reading all the reports from business press and analysts about 2010 being the “year of data.” At Red Aril, we like to think of it as the “year of your data” as we believe that the only strategic leverage for marketers, advertisers and publishers is to utilize their own assets within a broader data portfolio.
