It is with great pride that I look back on the last 10 years. Chris Kramer and I started Netx (then NETexponent) in January of 2001 with one simple goal; to acquire the most valuable customers for our clients at the most efficient rate. 10 years laterand that is still the driving premise behind everything we do at Netx.

Over the years we have had the pleasure of working with many great people across many wonderful companies. Our client list currently includes such top brands as Audible.com (an Amazon.com company), Nickelodeon, Conde Nast, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Financial Times, Hot Topic, Dymo (a Newell Rubbermaid company), and Red Roof Inn. Other client experience includes work for AMEX, The New York Times (our first client), Verizon, Scholastic, ESPN, and many other category leading brands. Our clients are extremely forward thinking and treat us as a partner rather than a vendor. To all of our clients, past and present, “Thank You.”

We have also had the pleasure of working with some of the most amazing people in the online ad industry. The folks that work at Netx are the best and brightest minds in this space and constantly impress us with their creativity and dedication. To all of our staff, past and present, “Thank You.”

The publishers we work with are genuinely nice folks who work hard to drive the best results possible for us and our clients. To all of our publishers, past and present, “Thank You.”

The client-agency-publisher trifecta can be described simply as “good people & great results”.

For all of these reasons and many many more…I consider myself very lucky to be a part of Netx.

We would not be here without help. So four our 10th anniversary celebration we decided thank as many folks as we could. A party took place in Battery Gardens, a wonderful waterfront venue in Battery Park NYC. We were joined but current staff, past staff, clients, partners, friends, and family. Notice that our custom cake features each of our current staff along the base (our foundation) and our clients on the second tier and a message of thanks. It was a fun opportunity for us to say “Thank You” to those who have helped us along our journey.

We must also thank our wonderful friends and family for cheering us on over the years. Our parents taught us to take chances, be creative, and treat others the way we would want to be treated. Our siblings pushed us to achieve more and always believed in us. And our loving spouses constantly deal with our addiction to email and late nights working. We love you all and “Thank You!”

Here are some great moments from that special night. I am sorry that we could not have everyone there with us but please know that you were all there with us in spirit.

Thank you for 10 amazing years and cheers to many many more!

I love my job!

Signed,

Peter
