BARCELONA, Spain—The team behind Blacked.com, in conjunction with Traffic Junky, announced this week the launch of a $5,000 contest to find the next key player as they bring their newest project, Tushy.com, to market. The contest will span the month of August and submissions will be accepted through August 31. Candidates from all countries are welcome to participate.

"We decided to launch this contest to reach out to creative video editors and the media-buying market at large," said Michael Chan, recently appointed marketing manager of the affiliate program behind both sites. "We'll be selecting the top three video ad submissions and then running them over $10,000 worth of inventory from Traffic Junky in September to find the best-performing ad. The winner takes all," said Chan. The company reports that Tushy.com is off to a tremendous start, with sales volume and conversion rates in-line with those of Blacked.com upon its monumental launch, just over a year ago."This is a resilient market where a quality product never goes out of style," noted Greg Lansky, chief creative officer of the company. He continued, "We're now looking for that key person who understands our brand well enough to be able to penetrate the mass market through their creative eye for high-performance advertising."The rules of the contest are as follows: • $5,000 cash prize payable via check, wire or Paxum • Multiple submissions accepted through August 31, 2015• Ad criteria:   Dimensions: 300x250 pixels   Duration: 8-12 seconds   Library: Top five Tushy.com scenes will be provided to qualified contestants. • Company will select top three submissions according to criteria stated below. • Company will have sole discretion in the management of the Traffic Junky campaign. • Ad with the best performance (as determined by proprietary metrics) will be selected as the winner. • Winner will be announced September 15, 2015.
