The Boca Raton Executive Club
is excited to announce its guest speaker for the December
1st meeting: John
Ferber.
Ferber
is widely known as an online marketing futurist and innovator.
These days, he is a dedicated philanthropist and
entrepreneur.
As
a pioneer of the digital world, Ferber co-developed the world's
first interactive multiple player video game called "HoverRace." He
also developed a software product called "ClickTracker," which laid
the foundation to tracking and measuring sales on the
internet.
John
and his brother Scott were co-founders of Advertising.com, which was acquired by Time
Warner and its subsidiary AOL in 2004 for $496 million dollars.
Advertising.com is one of the world's largest interactive marketing
services companies. Under John's direction as Chief Product
Officer, Advertising.com's products and technologies set the trend
for the industry. Advertising.com has been considered the prototype
for online marketing, winning numerous awards such as ClickZ's
"Best Optimization Technology" (2002) and "Best Advertising
Network" (2004).
In
recent years, Ferber has used his creative genius, time and
resources to develop new methods of using the internet to help
people. In 2007, he started MicroGiving.com, which allows individuals to
donate funds online to an individual, a family, or a charity. The
goal is to unmask the impersonal veil that isolates donors from the
recipient and cultivate organic, life-changing relationships. Not
only does this organization provide individuals with the ability to
raise funds for causes that are dear to them, it allows individuals
to channel their passions, projects, ideas or dreams into something
that can help others.
Ferber
is co-founder of Domainholdings.com which seeks to enhance it's
client's digital footprint by offering a wide variety of internet
marketing strategies, including domain management, hosting, content
creation, design, keyword optimization, SEO, lead management &
conversion, PPC, analytics, as well as a wide variety of effective
search engine marketing strategies and leading web site marketing
tips.
His
impressive resume also includes being named "Entrepreneur of the
Year" by Ernst & Young LLP, Washington Techway "Top Executive
Under the age of 30" and IT Recruiter Magazine's "Top Techies to
Watch."
