Gen3’s Co-Chief Executive Officers, Mike Tabasso and Andy Cantos, will continue to lead the Company as it executes its growth plan to become the dominant agency in the affiliate marketing industry.

Andy Cantos stated, “Gen3 Marketing partnered with Sett & Lucas to marry our digital marketing expertise with a strategic partner to accelerate the next stage of growth of our business. Sett & Lucas’ understanding of the affiliate and digital marketing space, their relationships with private equity funds and their track record in creative deal structuring, helped us close this transaction with the right partner”. He continued to say “We are excited about what the partnership with LaSalle means for our customers and partners in the affiliate marketing industry, as it will enable us to further invest in our solutions for advertisers, publishers and affiliate networks.”

According to Steve Malin, the Managing Partner at the New York office of Sett & Lucas, ”Overall, publishers still generate the bulk of their revenue from advertising, but affiliate marketing is growing faster and approximately 15% of the digital media industry's revenue now comes from affiliate marketing”. He also believes there is going to be a lot of investment activity in the Affiliate Marketing space over the next few quarters.

Co-founder Mike Tabasso stated, “A performance marketing business like Gen3 needed an industry focused investment bank that had a global footprint. Sett & Lucas was the perfect choice and they did a fabulous job of running the process”, he also added that the team at Gen3 was are very excited to partner with LaSalle Capital in the next stage of growth of the business. Nick Christopher, Partner at LaSalle Capital, commented, “Mike and Andy have built a reputation as leaders in the affiliate marketing industry.

Also, search marketing is trending towards over 50% of total digital spend, this is going to be interesting times for a very fragmented industry. Consolidation is bound to happen and we clearly see firms like Gen3 leading the marketplace coalition”, says deal lead and Sr. Vice President at Sett & Lucas, Prabhu Antony.
