Capabilities with Enhanced Search Expertise



NEW YORK, Oct. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Web Liquid announces the arrival of Paul
Burani as partner to head up search engine strategy, furthering the company's
digital marketing services for clients in the travel & hospitality, retail
apparel, luxury goods and financial services industries. Web Liquid clients
include Avis, Hilton, OpenSkies and other well-known brands in the consumer
and B2B channels.

"Web Liquid already has a vast scope of capabilities which includes media
planning and buying, word-of-mouth and social media; augmenting this with
integrated search marketing allows us to drive better returns on behalf of our
clients, and push into new territory," Burani said. 

With an emphasis on the analytical foundation of marketing, Burani was trained
in traditional research-driven brand development at the NPD Group, developing
accounts for clients including Nestle and Kraft. After completing the
Copenhagen Business School's Innovation and Business Development program, he
turned to digital media and founded Clicksharp Marketing, a search engine
marketing and social media strategy consultancy. Clicksharp's work spanned a
variety of industries including consumer products, apparel, hospitality and
non-profit, with clients such as LG Electronics, PayPal, VF Sportswear and the
Soros Foundations.  

According to Web Liquid Founding Partner Matt Cronin, the company had long
recognized the importance of developing search strategies, and decided it
would better serve clients by adding enhanced in-house search expertise rather
than using an outside agency on a project basis.

"That model has served our clients well for many years," Cronin said.
"However, the dynamics of the digital media landscape have recently changed
such that the independent execution of search separately from display, social
media, affiliates and other channels, no longer serves our clients' needs most
effectively. With the addition of Paul and the integration of Clicksharp, our
in-house search capability allows Web Liquid to better manage and optimize the
complementary effects of all digital channels, and ultimately maximize our
clients' ability to profit from them."

Burani is the fourth partner at Web Liquid, joining Cronin and the agency's
other two London-based co-founders, Alain Portmann and David Shiell.
