BALA CYNWYD, Pa. and TEL AVIV, Israel, Sept. 30, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Cline Group (www.theclinegroup.com), a leading international, strategic marketing and communications agency, announced new clients in the mobile app, advertising and e-commerce industries today, cementing its rise among multiple classes of technology companies as their holistic marketing and PR agency of choice.
Building on sizable new-business gains in the year's first and second quarters, The Cline Group has increased its revenue over 300% since the start of 2013. The holistic marketing and PR agency continues to build its focus on technology companies featuring a mobile-app component as well as others with strong business-to-business wireless-industry significance such as mobile-advertising platforms.
"We're working a lot with consumer-facing mobile apps to help broaden their self-awareness as technology companies," said The Cline Group's CEO and President, Josh Cline. "Today's trend is to reach customers via mobile apps, but what about tomorrow? Mobile apps are a delivery method, not an identity. Through our partnerships with our clients, we clarify the problems they solve for consumers, then uncover the B2B angle they may have overlooked – and identify which companies could become their potential channel partners or acquirers."
Having already helped client and Microsoft Accelerator for Windows Azure alumnus MediSafe Project (www.medisafeproject.com) secure a round of seed funding and close partnerships with several B2B corporations, The Cline Group is now working with RotaryView, another Windows Accelerator graduate, to redefine e-commerce imagery with its interactive, 360◦ view technology.
"RotaryView is the leading resource for creating and using interactive, 360◦ images to sell products online – a true game-changer for e-commerce," said RotaryView's CEO, Gev Rotem. "The Cline Group is expertly using media and analyst relations to achieve our business goal of partnering with international online marketplaces and e-commerce brands. Their PR activities are not the ends in and of itself; they're the means to help us achieve our goal faster."
