Compendium Selected as One of the Top Three Innovations by Direct Marketing Association (DMA) Members, the Worlds Largest Marketing Organization

Indianapolis, IN (PRWEB) June 23, 2011

Yesterday, Compendium was named one of the top three Early Stage Innovations at the Direct Marketing Associations All For One Summit. This award comes on the heels of a 2011 eCommerce Rising Star award. In addition, one of Compendiums clients, Granite State College, earned a Merit recognition in the Total Advertising Award category for schools under 2,000 students from the Higher Ed Marketing Report for an integrated marketing campaign based in its blog. Together, these national awards recognize the impact of the Compendium platform in improving its clients online presence.

Were honored to be recognized for the innovation involved in creating a business blogging platform that gives the control of the message back to the marketer, said Frank Dale, President of Compendium.

Not only can marketers manage their blogs without burdening their IT staffs or relying on do-it-yourself alternatives, but Compendium makes it easy for them to capture customer stories to share.

The DMA Early Stage Innovation recognition was earned based on texted votes from the All For One Summit attendees. The award celebrates advancement in direct and digital marketing technology. Entries were based on three main criteria: how innovative the product or service is, the impact the product or service has on an end-user, and whether or not the product or service has made a difference in the community at large. A panel of judges will determine the ultimate winner who will receive their award along with other Innovation Award winners at DMA2011 in Boston on Tuesday, October 4.

World Business Research uses its Rising Stars designation to recognize companies that the eTail community feel have the leading-edge in value, performance and service excellence and are helping retailers advance their cause. Compendium was nominated as a Rising Star in the Content Marketing category by clients Gymboree Play and Music, Taiga Company, Lexicomp.com, and IVLProducts.

Granite State College began using the Compendium platform to let their students share the impact that getting an education had on their lives. Because of the enthusiasm of student bloggers, Granite State translated blog stories into an integrated marketing campaign including billboards, print ads and even a new sub-brand, "Granite State College Stories". The Higher Education Marketing Report recognized the power of this campaign with a Total Advertising Award category for schools under 2,000 students.

With more than 400 customers, Compendium is quickly becoming the business blogging platform of choice for marketers who are creating and capturing content online while maintaining control over the content they choose to represent their brand.

Taylor & Francis Will Publish CHANCE for the American Statistical Association

Alexandria, VA and Abingdon, Oxford, UK (PRWEB) August 17, 2011

The American Statistical Association (ASA) and international publisher Taylor & Francis Group are pleased to announce that Taylor & Francis will publish CHANCE in full color on behalf of the ASA beginning in 2012. CHANCE is the ASAs quarterly magazine that brings statistics to everyday life.

Not a technical magazine, but rather a cultural record of the evolving field of statistics, CHANCE entertains and informs. It features easy-to-digest articles that showcase how statistical methods and ideas in the social, biological, physical, and medical sciences can be engaging, fun, and enlightening.

Since its creation in 1988, CHANCE has covered such topics as expert witnesses and the courts, teacher evaluations and student grades, the statistical history of the AIDS epidemic, election night predictions, racial profiling, counter-terrorism, and the hot hand in ice hockey.

Executive Editor Sam Behseta intends to continue serving the CHANCE audience by publishing highly engaging statistical articles with minimal use of equations and technical jargon. The magazine, said Behseta, soon will offer book reviews and exciting columns about ethics in statistics, statistical data privacy, and statistics education and pedagogy.

On behalf of Taylor and Francis, Kevin Bradley, president, U.S. Journals, commented that We are proud to add CHANCE to the T&F family of publications, and I look forward to seeing the magazines expansion. We are pleased to be partnering with the ASA to bring CHANCE and the ASA journals to a broader and more international audience. The http://www.tandfonline.com platform will serve the ASA and the scientific community well and we are grateful that the ASA has placed their confidence in us.

CHANCE also sponsors The Statistics Forum, a blog that provides everyone the opportunity to participate in discussions about probability and statistics and their role in important and interesting topics. Interested parties can read the blog at http://statisticsforum.wordpress.com.

In 2012 and beyond, the ASA and Taylor & Francis will continue to offer CHANCE by subscription. ASA members should continue to contact the ASA for their subscriptions. Others seeking 2012 subscription and access information should contact the Taylor & Francis Customer Service Department at (800) 354-1420 or customerservice(at)taylorandfrancis(dot)com.
