Adsimilis closing down?!

I've been scrolling through my LinkedIn feed like I do once every few days.. Usually there's nothing newsworthy but now I ran into this:



This is very surprising to me, it seems very sudden. Quite curios about the next steps the team there is taking.

All they said is that they will close down their network operations and focus on internal offers, its not a bad idea and a trend that you can see a few networks follow.

What is causing this? Better ROI in self owned? Legal concern? Fed up? Only they will be able to tell you, from the way its worded I feel they will keep working with a lot of the pubs in the near future.

Receives their notice email a few days ago. Even though at first I was quite surprised about the notice, it felt nice to see such professional and fair approach to this change.

Let’s see what comes next

Didn't see a network shutting down in a long time.

Strange times.

What I understand they are not shutting down, but got rid of most affiliates.

Maybe not a bad idea. Having a ton of non productive affiliates and also playing whack a mole with sketchy affiliates, might just be easier to streamline and work with known commodities and control the offers.

I agree. A class act.

Well, I just got a notification from another network that they stop accepting traffic starting today, lol. No previous message! Luckily I wasn't running anything with them but for those who do, it sucks if they also just got notified today that they are closing shop for affiliate/shutting down/not accepting more traffic for another reason.
