Specializing in strategic media planning & marketing for real estate developers, Americas Media Group (AMG) has expanded into a fully-integrated marketing enterprise with more broker, developer and media connections than any agency worldwide. Americas Media Group (AMG) has rapidly expanded their capabilities to offer media buying, marketing and public relations expertise to over 120 clients in more than 20 countries.

AMG's global expansion includes projects in Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, Dominican Republic, Antigua, Anguilla, Turks and Caicos, Canada, Bahamas, Nevus, Singapore, Qatar, Dubai, and Abu Dabi. Most recently, AMG has concentrated its efforts on the Middle East and Asian markets in hopes of replicating the success they've secured in their Americas division.

Utilizing their A-list connections and resources, AMG has reached out to top editors, vendors, trade shows, and publishers to increase their client's media coverage exponentially. In addition, AMG has secured sponsorship opportunities at consumer events such as the Tribeca, Toronto, and Cannes Film Festivals, The Wimbledon Tennis tournament, and the Masters and Open Golf Tournaments in order to reach a large consumer audience. Under the direction of an ex-Condé Nast executive, AMG's PR slate is fast-growing and consists of clients within the real estate, interior design, fashion & hospitality industries.
To complement AMG's swift global expansion, the company has secured alliances with regional and worldwide offices. In April, AMG will add Washington D.C. to their list of alliance offices which currently include Ft. Lauderdale, New York City, Los Angeles, Toronto, Cancun, Caracas, Madrid, Barcelona, Milan, Montreal, Tokyo, Shanghai, London, Amsterdam, and Florence, Italy. These partners join AMG's current hubs located in Miami, Palm Beach, Venezuela, and Panama. De Valle summarizes his growth, "I see AMG's global expansion as a competitive tool that pushes AMG into the category of A List worldwide agencies. We are on track to continue to compete with biggest media firms on the map."

Internet Marketing Takes a New Shape and Form
Possibly the most significant criteria for internet marketers that are selecting a market to tap into is the demand that it generates on a constant basis. Granted, there are other factors that play their own respective roles too, however demand is what is looked at first and foremost.
Were there to be a litmus test for demand, then the market for software would certainly pass it with flying colors. Not only are there people out there that are looking for various pieces of software, but the truth is that there are a lot of them. Of course, tapping into the software market is easier said than done, and will naturally require software in order to do so.

Property Market Experts Say Now is the Time to Buy in France
Archant Life France, the market leading publisher within the Francophile market in the UK, is organising its annual French property exhibition in Harrogate. The three-day event will be held in the Yorkshire Event Centre. Doors will open at 10am every day and entrance is free. Tickets can be obtained from fpeharrogate.com.
Show visitors will be able to meet the market professionals such as estate agents, tax advisors, mortgage lenders, and removal and currency exchange companies. Free seminars led by experts will run throughout the show, offering househunters a unique opportunity to have their questions answered face to face.
Having watched the French property market and commented on its fluctuations over the years, Karen Tait, editor of French Property News magazine, has become a trusted voice. She believes that, despite the property market's current bad press, now is a good time to buy in France. "It is a buyer's market in France at the moment, indeed, many vendors in France have dropped their sale price to levels not seen for years, which means that even with the current sterling/euro exchange rate, buyers can still find a bargain," she said. "I know there are obstacles on the path to true French property nirvana, but there are also plenty of ways to get round them. Even if your plans to buy in France are only at the dream stage, do come along to the show. You will hear lots of good advice and may be surprised at what you can achieve within your current financial circumstances."
Archant Life France keeps a close eye on the market through its publications and related websites, and is always interested in new trends. "For instance, at present we're seeing an increase in the number of people seeking to swap properties," explained Karen Tait. "Difficult conditions force people to innovate and new ideas are emerging. All this will be open for discussion at the show."
As well as organising France-related exhibitions Archant Life France publishes three monthly magazines about France and a number of websites. Their property portal France Property Shop welcomes an average of 20,000 unique visitors every month while Living France magazine keeps appealing to the numerous British nationals who decide to move to France permanently every year. Eleanor O'Kane, the editor of Living France said: "Our readers tell us they'd rather be in France than in the UK as the lifestyle is more enjoyable. The bottom line is that those who are seriously committed to a French lifestyle do their homework and make sure the move is sustainable. On the whole France still offers a good long-term return on investment."
All visitors at the show will be given free copies of French Property News and Living France. The following month, French Property News will be celebrating 20 years of publishing with a special anniversary issue.
