Liftoff Honored As Gold Stevie® Award Winner In 2019 American Business Awards®

Liftoff, the leader in mobile app marketing and retargeting, today was named the winner of a Gold Stevie® Award in the Fastest Growing Tech Company of the Year category for up to 2,500 employees in the 17th Annual American Business Awards®. This is the second consecutive year Liftoff has won Gold in this category, a testament to Liftoff’s impressive continual growth. 
 
This year, the American Business Awards received over 3,800 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry. Among those nominated, Liftoff’s 60% revenue growth earned the company a Gold award, honored for being the fastest growing technology company with less than 2,500 employees. 

This impressive growth can be attributed to its outstanding cost-per-action (CPA) business model, unique in an industry that is still run by-and-large on a cost-per-install (CPI) basis. True to its CPA approach, Liftoff believes that marketers should pay only following the completion of meaningful in-app actions, like calling a ride or booking a hotel room. By aligning its success to that of its customers, Liftoff has helped its customer base reduce their cost-per-first-purchase by an average of 50%, and increased app activations by an average of over 100%. 

“We’re humbled and honored to be awarded a Gold Stevie two years in a row,” says Liftoff CEO and co-founder Mark Ellis. “The growth of our business is a direct reflection of the trust our customers place in our technology and global team.  We’re proud to be part of our customers’ growth.”

The company’s nomination was met with overwhelmingly positive feedback. “This company is growing because it enables its customers to grow,” remarked one judge. “This kind of success breeds success. 60% annual growth – with minimal investment -- shows the team knows what they are doing.”

The American Business Awards are the U.S.A.’s premier business awards program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. are eligible to submit nominations – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small. More than 200 professionals worldwide participated in the judging process to select this year’s Stevie Award winners.
