On this quarter’s Publisher Spotlight episode, Cassandra Scarbeck and Vikki Danielson, managers on the Publisher Development team here at Acceleration Partners, take a deep dive into performance partners who help companies drive high-value leads on a Cost Per Action (CPA) basis.

Vikki Danielson has worked within digital marketing for the past 15 years, holding various roles at affiliate networks and demand generation platforms as well as managing SEO, display and social channels for B2B and B2C brands.
