I am delighted to announce that Zealot Networks has acquired a majority stake in AdRev/AudioMicro, Inc. for over $20 Million. This is the exit our shareholders have been working towards since the company was founded back in 2007. A special thank you goes out to Danny and the entire team at Zealot – we are excited for our future together. A super special thank you to the AdRev / AudioMicro team – Noah, Alex, Ben B, Peter, Brett, Jesse, Matt, Andrew, Ben P, Rod, Mischa, Yaroslav, Molly, Arlo, Josh P, Josh K, Christian, Oscar, Eric and everyone that contributed to the effort; and to our board of directors – Scott, Oleg, and Jamie. I am forever grateful for all of your hard work, dedication, trust, and support throughout the years. I can’t thank you enough for everything that you do – day in day out – to help make our company a success. I would also like to thank all of our clients, customers, and partners for entrusting us with your business throughout the years. Without all of you, none of this would have been possible.

I’m pleased to announce that we (
AdRev / AudioMicro, Inc.) have acquired music distribution company DashGo –
http://dashgo.com .
For details on the acquisition, check out this Billboard.com article —>
Highlights:
1. DashGo distributes music worldwide to iTunes, Spotify, YouTube Music Key, Pandora, Amazon, Google Play, Beats, Rdio, Rhapsody, Sound Exchange, Shazam, BeatPort and other music retailers and collection societies.
2. DashGo takes a hands-on approach in driving visibility, retail marketing and discovery strategy for client releases. The company’s robust dashboard gives labels the flexibility to easily manage repertoire, offering a premium catalog to music retailers while allowing rights holders to retain full control over their music.
3. DashGo has an incredible client base including David Hernandez’s DH1 Media, Coconut Records, Rock Mafia, and Katy Tiz, to name a few, providing an amazing foundation to nurture and expand upon.
4. DashGo was founded in 2004 by entrepreneur Ben Patterson. Ben will continue as CEO of DashGo (and the entire DashGo team including Tate Palmer and Jeremy Vilela will stay on as well). We will be expanding DashGo’s products services along with our YouTube rights management services at AdRev.
Happy Holidays! Hoping that 2015 is your best year ever.

I’m pleased to announce that as part of the 2014 Deloitte Technology Fast 500, AdRev (AudioMicro, Inc.) has been ranked the 28th fastest growing company in North America. Thank you to our amazing team, customers, and clients for making this happen. We couldn’t have done it with you. I realize the blog has basically turned into a trophy wall which is likely annoying for subscribers. Please accept my apologies. I simply don’t have any time or focus theses days to enable myself to create detailed topical blog posts here but hope to get back to doing so some day.
