About

Founded in 1981 and headquartered in Neenah, US, Adventures In Advertising focuses on empowering promotional product distributors by offering critical business support. The company was sold to McNally Capital in September 2013. The current CEO is Sameh Ziada.
iPROMOTEu specializes in providing comprehensive business resources and personalized support tailored for promotional products distributors and potential distributorships. Their core offerings include back-office support, order financing, sales and marketing strategies, and access to a network of preferred vendors, which collectively position clients for greater financial independence and operational efficiency. The services are designed to streamline daily business operations, allowing distributors to focus on sales while iPROMOTEu manages essential tasks such as order processing and customer account management. The company serves a diverse clientele, including both established distributors and independent entrepreneurs within the promotional products industry, primarily across North America.
iPROMOTEu's business model emphasizes maintaining distributor autonomy while delivering significant operational advantages aimed at fostering growth within this competitive sector. iPROMOTEu generates revenue through a structured partnership model that supports promotional product distributors. The company facilitates transactions predominantly through B2B relationships, wherein distributors leverage iPROMOTEu’s resources to enhance their sales capabilities. The financial framework includes various service offerings, such as back-office support and marketing assistance, which operate on a subscription basis or as part of service fees charged to affiliated distributors.
While specific pricing plans for these services are not disclosed, the firm’s model is designed to provide measurable value to its members, enhancing their ability to achieve higher sales volumes. This strategic approach underpins iPROMOTEu’s standing as one of the largest networks in the promotional products domain, ensuring sustained engagement and revenue generation from its client base. As of September 2013, Adventures In Advertising aims to leverage its recent acquisition by McNally Capital to explore new market opportunities within the promotional products sector. The company is currently investigating potential launches of new service offerings designed to enhance distributor capabilities.
Additionally, it plans to expand its reach into additional regions of North America, aiming for a broader presence by 2025. The recent funding will be utilized to support these initiatives, facilitating the development of new products and enhancing market penetration.
