Rosetta Cited as a Strong Performer by Independent Research Firm

"Large American marketers looking to integrate search into a larger site design, media, or customer management effort will do well with Rosetta," Forrester Research, Inc. reported.

Differentiating Rosetta from the industry leaders rated in the report, Forrester noted, "Rosetta's strongest suits are its cross-media bid optimization and attribution tools provided by its third-party bid management platform: ClearSaleing. It also has adroit customer analysis and social media skills courtesy of its extended agency resources."

The report also states, "Newcomer Rosetta has pockets of greatness due to its use of attrition specialist ClearSaleing for multichannel bid management and reporting. We also like Rosetta's customer research experience and that it structures search staff into account teams alongside other functional specialists for more integrated planning."

Rosetta's top scores were for Customer Analysis, Social Media, Analysis and Reporting and Strength of Management Team. Rosetta also scored well for Executive Vision.

"First and foremost, we are thrilled to see that Rosetta received some of the highest marks in client satisfaction. We are pleased with our evaluation in general and feel it accurately reflects our continued focus on driving measurable impact by transforming how our clients' go to market and our ability to deliver on that promise by integrating strategic insights, ideas and programs and technology to deliver a more personally relevant total customer experience," said Rosetta Chairman and CEO Chris Kuenne.

100 agencies were screened by Forrester, which narrowed the field included in the report to nine agencies to be evaluated on their strategic and execution capabilities across 60 criteria.
