Verve™ Expands Regional Footprint With An Austin Office To Serve Clients In The Southwest


NEW YORK, Aug. 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Verve™, the global leader in location-powered mobile marketing, today announces the launch of a new office in Austin, Texas to serve clients in the Southwest.

Verve sees Austin as a natural location for expansion, joining the ranks of top startups and agencies that have established a foothold in Texas' most digital city. Home to the renowned SXSW festival and over 5,500 high tech companies, it ranked 1st on CNBC's 2016 list of top 20 American cities in which to start a business. The new office is Verve's 8th sales office worldwide and will serve brands and advertisers throughout Texas and the southwestern United States.

Verve has hired Joe Tartaglia, an industry veteran with over 20 years in digital media, including time with Perk, DailyMotion, and GroupM, to lead efforts in Austin as Regional Sales Director. Tartaglia's well-rounded expertise, including leadership positions on the agency, client, and publisher sides of the business, makes him well suited to build Verve's business in the region and expand a portfolio of clients that currently include Whole Foods Market, Texas Lottery, Tito's Handmade Vdka, and Dell.



"Austin is a hotbed of innovation and entrepreneurial ingenuity, and we couldn't be more excited to join this community," said Kevin Arrix, Chief Revenue Officer at Verve. "Not only is this a chance to forge closer relationships with our regional clients, but it's also an opportunity to tap into the considerable tech talent coming out of UT and the future forward thinking that drives the local startup scene as we continually enhance the Verve platform."

"The Southwest region is booming, with a combination of well-established brands, and those that have more recently become nationally-known. It's an exciting time to join the Verve team and help these brands reach their consumers through our innovative mobile marketing platform," said Tartaglia.


Verve Austin, following close on the heels of a newly established office in Detroit, is a strong signal of how quickly business is advancing. The Verve team expanded across the entire organization in 2016, in support of continued growth that generated over $100 million in revenue.
