Acxiom Honored for Outstanding Contributions to Marketing

Global interactive marketing services leader Acxiom® Corporation (Nasdaq: ACXM) was recently named the corporate Silver Apple honoree for 2009 by the Direct Marketing Club of New York (DMCNY).

Each year the Silver Apple Awards honor a handful of individuals and one corporation – all industry leaders – for outstanding contributions to direct and interactive marketing in the New York region. According to the DMCNY, “recipients must have at least 25 years’ experience in the business, a commitment to volunteerism and leadership, and a record of vital contributions to the growth of the industry.”

“We’re honored to be selected for this award and to be included among such a distinguished group of honorees,” said Michael Darviche, Acxiom chief marketing officer. “Many of the world’s top marketing and advertising companies operate in the New York area, and to have Acxiom’s service in that arena recognized for excellence is a testament to the quality work of all of our associates.”

Many of the world’s leading companies rely on Acxiom’s global multichannel marketing services to improve performance of their online and direct marketing investments. Acxiom provides clients, many of whom operate in the New York area, with access to an unparalleled combination of consumer insights, multichannel marketing expertise, analytics and technology, enabling clients to optimize communications across multiple media channels.

“These honorees represent some of the outstanding achievers in our field,“ said DMCNY president, Reggie Brady. “The entire club is proud to be associated with them and we are delighted to recognize their years of service to direct and interactive marketing.”

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the award, and the club is planning a special event to be held in Manhattan’s historic Hudson Theater November 12, 2009. For more information on the DMCNY and the Silver Apple Awards, visit http://www.dmcny.org/mc/page.do?sitePageId=92364.
