What a great start to the first quarter – it’s exciting to break into a new year with business growing. Historically, our companies have had successful January’s and this year that stands true once again. We are extremely grateful for the growth and stability year after year, and to say the least – our entire team works hard for that. Over the past several months we have done a lot of self-inventory and restructuring and it’s already showing huge results. It’s quite clear to us that continuous self-appraisal is of the utmost importance to continue our safe expansion. Paying close attention to all divisions, employees and workflows allows our company to operate efficiently while getting maximum output.
Our company as a whole has grown to over 150 employees in United States, Canada, and United Kingdom. We just opened a satellite office in Dhaka, Bangladesh this month adding on another twenty around the clock employees, saving us hundreds of thousands of dollars in overhead while increasing the overall output. It’s funny, when Eagle Web Assets started years back we relied entirely on international employees throughout India Bangladesh, then transferred entirely domestic, and now grew to such a size that transferring back became a viable option again! The greatest thing about transferring employee jobs international is that we have not had to layoff a single domestic employee, we just transferred employees into divisions like Accounting, Business Development and various Management sections that require domestic employees.
Over the next two quarters we will be opening offices in France, Germany, Singapore, Russia, Netherlands, and Brazil to accommodate growth in new international regions. Our internet advertising brands, both public and private, feel that putting a face to a name is important. Having a localized presence in emerging countries will give us the competitive advantage that we need to soar above the competition. I’m confident that our existing clients will be astonished to see the new international reach that we will be able to further manage for them. Since the beginning, we’ve made most of our money internationally so having an employee presence there is now necessary.
We hired dozens of employees over the past several months that all deserve their own honorable mention, but today I would like to highlight two new hires that will bemanaging the “front end” of our brands. To start, over at BLAM Ads Content Locking we hired a new loyal affiliate that has been with us since the beginning to be an account manager and to say the least – I’m already grateful for having him part of our team. Every new person we bring on has an individual opinion that all the executives value seriously, and Goutham Vipparthi has already shown that he deserves to be part of our circle. Goutham will be representing our brands in the upcoming ad:tech New Dehli conference and expanding our presence in India, one of the fastest growing markets we emerged into. If anyone would like to meet him feel free to chat inside of our BLAM Revolution Community, he’s quite active there and posting tips all the time!
Over at EWA Private Network, we also have a new hire that has been putting up some crazy Ryan Eagle hours already working deep into the night to establish strong relationships with our loyal publishers. I’m happy to announce the hiring of Leo Goykhman – a true hustler born to be in the ranks of the EWA affiliate management. I’m truly grateful to have met someone like this and I’m confident that he is the absolute best representative that EWA could have. As he says, “The only way to reach true success in life is through perseverance and a killer work ethic. No two ways about it.” – and it’s already displaying. If you would like to meet him just drop him a message inside the United Republic of EWA Community, he’s been active there and helping affiliates out. He’s also amazing at adcopy, so if any of our publishers need some help don’t hesitate to contact him – he will make you profitable.

I want to personally thank everyone part of EWA Private Network for making us the leading affiliate network in the industry. Our affiliates proved that we didn’t need to work with everyone, just the best, to make the strongest network. Believe it or not, EWA is less than three years old and we’ve risen to this status by partnering with our publishers and vowing to build long-term relationships with you. It’s because of you we’ve gotten here, our team simply guides you in the right direction. We’ve been able to have the privilege to work with individual publishers for years, and business relationships have turned into friendships over time. 2011 was our largest year yet, and I promise that our team has put our lives into making this network for you. Harrison and I still work just as hard as we always did, and the team that we have built work harder than I would have ever expected. To our employees, working at EWA is not a career – it’s a lifestyle.
