IT People - People

Silverpop distributor, Engage Digital, has appointed a new head of its sales team to boost the sales effort for Silverpop’s email marketing and marketing automation solutions in the Australian and New Zealand market.


Engage Digital, which is Silverpop’s exclusive ANZ distributor, has appointed a former IDG Communications publisher of several IT publications, Elizabeth Miller, as sales manager for ANZ.  Prior to IDG, Miller worked for three years with online marketing company, 24/7 Real Media in sales and business development.

Engage Digital Managing Director, Jeff Clark, said Miller would be responsible for “developing sales opportunities for Silverpop’s award winning marketing solutions,” which he said are consistently ranked amongst the world’s best.

According to Clark “launching in May this year, we have had a huge amount of interest from companies in Australia and New Zealand that either want to deploy an email marketing solution for the first time, or upgrade to something more comprehensive. There’s also strong interest amongst B2B marketers for automation solutions. Elizabeth’s role will be to work with these companies to understand their needs and deliver a solution that will work best for them.”
