2007 was a big year for our little Portland Oregon search engine marketing firm. I wanted to touch on a few key things to illustrate how far we’ve come in the last year, and I want to say thanks to the team, our partners & colleagues, and of course our clients for making 2007 another fantastic year for us. As I look back at my goals for 2007 (as laid out in our end-of-2006 press release), we were able to meet every single goal.

We represented by presenting at the following events & conferences:

• SEMpdx SearchFest 07 (PDX)
• Innotech (PDX)
• Search Engine Strategies (NYC & San Jose)
• SEMpdx 6 pack, Networking, & Hot Seat events (PDX)

We introduced new SEM services:

• Blog development, implementation & marketing support
• Social Media Marketing & Optimization
• Landing Page Optimization
• Press Release Optimization

Amplify Interactive has grown:

• We launched this blog
• Employee head count increased 100%
• We maintained another year of 50% revenue growth
• Our client roster increased 50%
• We established competitive employment practices & policies: 401k with match, health insurance, telecommuting policy, tri-met passes, performance bonuses & more
• We drank beer and we bowled our asses off – check out the pictures on our Flickr group page

Thanks from Amplify-Interactive. Here’s looking forward to an even better 2008!
