We're delighted to announce that we have been shortlisted for two awards at this years Golden Link Awards for our work with both Face the Future and Threadbare. Both shortlists within the 'Best Managed Programme' category recognise the continued growth that we are bringing to the retailers we work with, in collaboration with the team at Rakuten Advertising. 

What is Dealmaker Europe? 

This years awards will take place after a busy day of networking with publishers at The Brewery in London at Dealmaker Europe. After a two year forced break due to lockdown restrictions, the Dealmaker event returns on the 9th June 2022, with thousands of meeting due to take place. From looking at the list of attendees, it promises to be a busy day. More information on the event can be found here

What do we have to say? 

Dave Trolle, founder of Customer First Digital, summarised his thoughts. 
 
On Dealmaker Europe ... 
 
"Whilst everyone has got by with Teams, Zooms and Google Meets over the past couple of years, the affiliate industry thrives off the ability to meet face to face and discuss the latest opportunities to work together. As a team, we're looking forward to meeting as many of the attendees as possible in what we are sure will be a jam packed day!" 
 
On the award nominations ... 
 
"It's been amazing to see the growth of our affiliate management proposition. We are witnessing strong growth in revenue and new customer rates across all of the programmes we are managing. Our partnership with Rakuten along with Suzanne leading our affiliate management, has been fundamental to the continued performance growth. " 

Who else is shortlisted? 

Both nominations are for the 'Best Managed Affiliate Programme' category meaning that both of our partners will go head to head against each other. Hopefully one will win and there will be no fall outs!!!
