The Omni Experience Takes Flight
Lets face it: marketing today is complicated. Managing all consumer touch points requires working with multiple vendors, which makes efficiency and obtaining holistic insights challenging. We believe it's time for a better
approach - the omni experience - which consolidates all channel offerings into a single platform and dashboard for full transparency into the customer funnel - and helps marketers get back to actual marketing.
The omni experience is a part of our larger vision to drive the marketing industry forward with the people, innovative thinking and transparency that go beyond what is possible.
Our Mission
Traveling an ever-expanding technological landscape, today's consumer has no borders. This makes it an especially exciting time for brands. That’s why our mission is to empower clients with solutions that go beyond the expected, from superior service and technology to consumer-centric insights that drive better results. This means offering real-time insight into campaign performance across multiple channels and devices. It means maintaining a bird's eye view of purchasing paths. And it means discovering new opportunities to facilitate global expansion.
Our Company
With nine offices around the world, our global marketing services span affiliate, search, mobile, lead generation, display and attribution. The recent merger of LinkShare, MediaForge, Paid Search, DC Storm and Popshops under Rakuten Marketing means we offer the highest level of specialization in our core services combined with an integrated approach to simplify what has become an increasingly complex digital marketing space. In 2014, we launched Cadence, our omnichannel attribution platform that provides a single point of install and cross channel insights to optimize media spend. Our company is headquartered in New York City and has offices in Australia, Brazil, Japan, Singapore, the United Kingdom, France and Germany and throughout the United States.
