Stickyeyes gets its man



Leeds-based search engine optimisation and pay per click marketing specialist Stickyeyes has announced the addition of industry heavyweight Phil Kissane to its team of experienced professionals.

Earlier in his career, Kissane spent time with giant British firm William Hill working on a number of sportsbook and casino projects before joining Littlewoods Gaming as the firm’s Internet Director with full responsibility for all of the firm’s online products for three years. He was then appointed as Marketing Director for public relations firm LoudVision Marketing but left after two years to run his own gaming consultancy business where he has been working on a number of casino, sportsbook and bingo launch projects while also providing e-commerce advise on a number Internet retail projects.

“We obviously heard the rumours and there was talk of midnight meetings at service stations but now that the signing has been confirmed we are all in a bit of a state of shock,” said Paul Reilly, Head Of Search for Stickyeyes.

“This signing sends a signal that we are able to attract the best in the business. Phil’s unique experience further strengthens our position as the search marketing agency of choice in the gaming arena and we take our position in this market very seriously.

“Last year, we acquired Paul Huggett, formerly of Rank Interactive, who has proven to be a very valuable asset. Gaming is core to what we do and we aim to continue bringing the very best onboard to service our client’s needs.”
