Bestads poised to pass 100,000 members mark – target could be reached before end of June
Bestadsontv.com – the worldwide creative site showcasing the world’s latest and greatest commercials, print, outdoor, radio, interactive and integrated work – is fast approaching the magic 100,000 members mark, hopefully reaching that target during Cannes week or soon after.
Not bad going for a site started from scratch by Brian (Beamo) Beamish in 2003, reaching 10,000 members by August 2007, when he sold the site to Campaign Brief. Since then, we made major changes to the site and as a result, added around 18,000 members per year.
In April 2010 we also launched the Bestads App, which gives you immediate access to the weekly Top 6 TV/web film, Print, Outdoor/Ambient, Radio and Interactive advertisements from bestadsontv.com, plus guest judge comments each week by top international creatives. The App ranks highly on iTunes Top Business Apps charts in many markets – currently #203 in Australia and #112 in New Zealand. (Incidentally, the CB App is currently #252 in Australia and #177 in NZ).
