Hamburg, 13 December 2012: GAN Game Ad Net, marketing specialist
for games-related advertising and media services, intensifies its
foreign operations by installing a dedicated sales department for
Poland and opening a new office in Turkey. This expansion gives
GAN’s clients access to two major growth markets for online
games. As a specialized associate, GAN enables browser game
operators to unlock additional revenue potential by working with
premium advertising partners and solutions. Advertisers have widely
embraced this approach. This year already saw the implementation of
comprehensive campaigns for renowned companies. In Poland, GAN has
attracted such high-profile clients as the Coca Cola Company, while
in Turkey, a campaign for the OPET filling station chain is about
to get underway.
Since its founding five years ago, GAN has succeeded in
establishing gaming portals, and in particular, browser games, as
premium advertising environments. The company intends to build on
this success by further internationalizing its activities. For
example, GAN added the Coca Cola Company’s
“Fanta” brand to its client portfolio, with the
accompanying campaign with in-game integration and broad-coverage
campaign running on some of the biggest browser games in the Polish
market in October and November. GAN launched its own marketing
office in Turkey in early November, serving the local market as GAN
Game Ad Net Turkiye. This branch of the company is currently
implementing the integration of advertising into leading online
football manager games for OPET, one of Turkey’s major petrol
station operators.
“At present, the online games markets in Poland and Turkey
are growing rapidly. The large number of players and high quality
of the advertising markets indicate a massive sales
potential,” as Daniel Siegmund, founder and managing
director, explains the expansion strategy. “Our
well-established solutions are encountering very high demand.
Interest in innovative solutions is often much more pronounced
there than it is here. To be working with this kind of pioneering
spirit is quite exhilarating!”
With the expanded portfolio in Poland and Turkey, GAN has
extended the reach of its worldwide campaigns to more than 50
million users.
