FULL-TIME/ REMOTE POSITION
COMPANY OVERVIEW
Interest Media is a performance marketing publisher that owns and operates a portfolio of proprietary digital media properties focused on customer acquisition at scale. Unlike many lead generation companies, 100% of our traffic, leads, and call transfers are generated through internally owned and operated assets and call center operations.
Using predictive audience modeling and behavioral targeting, we connect advertisers with highly targeted consumers across multiple verticals while delivering measurable acquisition performance.
Our strongest verticals include:
ACA Insurance
Medicare
Final Expense Insurance
Social Security Disability
Auto Warranty
Other financial services products
In addition to digital lead generation, Interest Media operates internal call acquisition programs that generate and monetize inbound and outbound call transfers on both CPL and CPA models.
Our advertiser relationships range from emerging performance marketers to enterprise-scale buyers spending six and seven figures monthly.
