IN THE NEWS

Lon Mandel Buys List Business From ClientLogic
By Jim Emerson

ClientLogic has sold its list management and brokerage, compilation and insert media business to Lon Mandel, who’s been CEO of the unit for 20 years. ClientLogic and the new firm, Specialists Marketing Services Inc., plan to maintain a close working relationship, which includes cross promoting each other’s services to existing and prospective clients. Specialists Marketing Services will make corporate acquisitions and open new divisions within the next 18 months, while expanding its data service offerings in the e-mail and business-to-business sectors, Mandel said. Although some new products and services are expected to be developed in house, Specialists Marketing plans to buy other firms as a means to offer clients more non-traditional DM services. The deal closed Nov. 30. The terms and financial arrangments were not revealed.
