Acxiom(R) Digital, a leading provider of integrated digital marketing solutions for global 2000 enterprises, today announced it was named 17th on Advertising Age Magazine's list of top 50 interactive agencies. The list, issued in April, was compiled based on companies' annual US revenues from their interactive business.

"We are delighted to be named to this prestigious list of the country's leading interactive agencies," said Kevin H. Johnson, who heads Acxiom Digital. "Over the past three years, we have maintained a leadership position in the e-mail marketing business and made significant inroads into other digital marketing channels including search engine marketing, corporate blogging and microsite marketing. It is gratifying to receive recognition for our ability to drive impressive multichannel results for some of the world's leading marketers."

Further enhancing its credentials as one of the nation's leading interactive agencies, Acxiom Digital announced the appointment of two new creative directors, Alex Hendler and Steven Gianakouros. Hendler, a 20-year industry veteran who was most recently a vice-president/group creative director at Modem Media, will lead Acxiom Digital's creative team based in California. Gianakouros, who has more than a decade's experience in creative direction, identity and brand development, and web design and development, will head the company's creative team based in New York.

"We are excited to welcome Alex and Steven to the Acxiom Digital team," said Johnson. "Their extensive experience in designing and producing groundbreaking communications for leading global brands will be a tremendous asset to Acxiom Digital as we continue to create programs to make every communication count."
