SANTA MONICA, Calif., May 3, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The car shopping experts at Edmunds received the Most Innovative Publisher award this week from leading marketing industry publication AdExchanger. The award honors new and creative approaches to digital advertising and marketing over the past year.
"We recently made drastic changes to our advertising programs in order to better serve not only our automotive clients, but also the shoppers that count on us to help them find their next new car," said Alison Anziska, vice president of marketing and analytics at Edmunds. "It's an honor to be recognized for this monumental effort and we couldn't be prouder to take home this award."
Edmunds' entry focused on its recent switch to a cost-per-action model and emergence as the first automotive publisher to shift the way advertising is bought and displayed. A panel of expert judges selected Edmunds as the winner from a group of finalists, including industry stalwarts Bloomberg Media, Dotdash, Vox Media and WebMD. Edmunds took home the trophy for its innovative use of technology, data, platforms and internal operations to deliver more meaningful results to its clients and improve the overall site experience for consumers.
