Quick-crowdsourcing agency wins Facebook partner status

Previously known as the Preferred Marketing Developers (PMD) program, the new Marketing Partners program, which went live yesterday, is designed to match marketers with expertise across a number of sectors.

“Facebook Marketing Partners is built on the idea that the best marketing results can only be achieved by having the right partner for the job,” read a Facebook statement.

The program includes global partners with expertise in ad technology, media buying, content marketing, audience data and measurement.

The Facebook statement added: “After extensively vetting hundreds of current and prospective Marketing Partners, we’ve also updated our program badging: all partners who meet or exceed our partner standards have been awarded one badge, and are then further differentiated by specialties.”
