JERSEY CITY, N.J., April 25, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SITO Mobile Ltd. (NASDAQ: SITO ), a leading mobile engagement platform, today announced the promotion of Jon Lowen, current EVP of Operations and Product Development, to Chief Operating Officer.

Mr. Lowen has spent his entire career in the advertising technology space. At SITO, he has overseen the growth of the company’s technology products and managed the operational teams that oversee SITO’s media placement and advertising campaigns.  Prior to joining SITO, Lowen ran operations at DoubleVision, a mobile DSP, during which time revenue increased by over six times. He was also previously the Chief Operating Officer at Outdoor Hub, now Carbon Media Group, the largest outdoor sports digital media company.  As COO there, he was instrumental in building the company from its inception and increased profitability year over year, leading to its successful recapitalization.

"Jon has done an extremely impressive job leading SITO’s product development efforts, buttressing our position at the forefront of the burgeoning location-based marketing marketplace. With Jon’s vision, we have launched truly breakthrough products like RT VWI and SITO LABS that solve the biggest expressed needs of marketers today—transparency and attribution.” 

"I look forward to continuing to work with the SITO Mobile management team to leverage the tremendous tools, technology and diverse products that we offer," said Jon Lowen. “SITO Mobile is primed to take the next step toward unlocking the full value of location-based marketing, measurement, and attribution, via a real-time solution. I am excited to help us realize this potential and get to the next level."
