In his current role, Jeremy is responsible for growing Yieldmo's Advertising and new Analytics business which is focused on capturing the attention and intent of mobile consumers. Prior to Yieldmo, Steinberg oversaw the advertising division of The Weather Company where he was responsible for bringing industry-leading solutions to market, such as the groundbreaking WeatherFX platform, and played an important role in their acquisition by IBM in 2015. Previously, Jeremy also oversaw digital ad sales and business development at Fox News. Steinberg currently sits on the MMA North America Board of Directors, the UJA-Federation of New York's Marketing & Communication and Tech Committees and previously served on the IAB Board of Directors. He received a bachelor's degree in history from the University of Michigan.
"There is a massive opportunity to create a mutually beneficial advertising ecosystem for brands, publishers and consumers, and MAD is at the center of all this innovation," said Jeremy Steinberg, Chief Revenue Officer at Yieldmo and MAD Network Advisor. "It's refreshing to join a team that is developing long-term solutions for the advertising industry, which has been plagued by a growing list of problems for some time."
Bill Schild brings more than 25 years of industry experience, including his former role as Executive Vice President at Viant Inc., where he was responsible for all new business development and strategic partnerships. His expertise around data and technology directly translated into exponential growth for the Viant Advertising Cloud and enabled the company to develop deeper relationships and innovative solutions at the partner, client and agency level; ultimately leading to the 2016 sale to Time Inc. Prior to his role at Viant, Bill worked at media properties, technology companies and organizations of all sizes, including PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PWC), The Walt Disney Companies, Go.com, Infoseek, Lycos, Monster.com and Salesforce.com.
