Expansion marks the first of several new planned locations designed to better serve agencies and brands across the U.S.
IZEA Holdings, Inc.(IZEA:OTCBB), a world leader in social media sponsorships, today announced the opening of an office in Manhattan, New York, the worldwide epicenter for advertising. Located in Times Square, the office will house sales and support staff serving advertising agencies and brands in the East region.
“This office is the beginning of a new era of expansion for IZEA,” said Ted Murphy, Chief Executive Officer. “We intend to open offices around the country and eventually the world to better serve our clients and partners on a local level. While we embrace virtualization through technology, we recognize that the deep relationships required for explosive growth are best cultivated in person. IZEA is building teams of seasoned sales professionals in key markets to foster those relationships.”
Mr. Sloan Sehr, formerly Director of Sales for RockYou and Ms. Lauren McTaggart, formerly of SocialCode, will be among the first IZEA staff members in the Times Square office. “I am thrilled to be a part of the IZEA team,” said Mr. Sehr. “IZEA’s capabilities are unmatched in the social media sponsorship space and its dedication to continual product innovation is impressive. I look forward to representing the company in New York and quickly growing revenue in that market.”

IZEA will be hosting an invitation-only grand opening party on September 22nd in the LUXE room at Lucky Strike, located at 624-660 W 42nd Street. Representatives from agencies and brands can request an invitation by calling Kate Biggs at 407.674.6938 or email kate@izea.com.
