33across.com, the leading social targeting platform, announced today that industry veteran Matt Arkin has been appointed as President.

Arkin will oversee all revenue and operations, as well as help guide the strategic growth of the business. He will report to Eric Wheeler, CEO of 33Across.

"33Across has grown over 400% in the past year, and Matt's industry knowledge and depth of experience will help us continue to scale at an accelerated rate," said Eric Wheeler, CEO of 33Across. "Both the online and offline advertising industries are awakening to the strong business value of social targeting. With Matt joining our powerhouse executive team, we are in a position to significantly expand our customer base and deepen our relationships with the 350+ global brands we currently service."

"When I experienced what the 33Across was doing building marketers an actionable Brand Graph that plots the consumers most likely to become brand loyalists, I wanted to be part of the organization," said Matt Arkin, President of 33Across. "Unlike any other platform," explained Arkin, "33Across is focused on helping advertisers 'crack the code' on how consumers' increasingly social routine can predict brand favorability and purchase behavior. It's no surprise that the company's reputation is as strong as it is."
