Micky Khanna is joining the senior management team at Optimus Performance Marketing as Sales Director to lead its aggressive new business strategy.
Khanna has over nine years of online marketing experience, most recently as Head of Affiliate Sales at buy.at where he and his team brought in almost £6m in new business revenue when the company was fully integrated into AOL’s Platform-A business. His team were also instrumental in winning a number of of the UK’s leading brands such as Talk Talk, Virgin Money, and HBOS, plus the consolidation of accounts including 02 and Orange.
Mark Russell, Managing Director of Optimus Performance Marketing, says: “Micky certainly knows the market and the market knows him. Following Malcolm Cowley’s recent commitment to help us move into our next stage of growth, we’re delighted to have been able to attract yet another similarly connected and experienced Affiliate champion. This is another sharp signal to the market of our intentions as we build and grow our relationships with Advertisers, Networks and Agencies.”
Prior to buy.at, Micky was part of the launch team behind the Daily Mail’s londonjobs.co.uk recruitment site, before joining the UK’s first pay-per-click network, Espotting Media, where he quickly established himself through the ranks and managed strategic accounts for the likes of Ebay, The Search Works, Steak Media, and Group M.
Micky says: “Having known Mark and the team for over three years, and worked with them during my time at buy.at, it’s fair to say that Optimus are not only held in high regard by Affiliates, Merchants and Networks, but are also set to increase their slice of the Affiliate Marketing pie considerably. I’m looking forward to helping take the business to the next level.”

Malcolm Cowley, one of the original founders of buy.at, is joining the Board of Optimus Performance Marketing to help mastermind a significant new growth strategy for the business which will respond to Advertisers’ growing needs for greater control of their Affiliate activity.
A recognisable figure in the Affiliate & Performance industry, Malcolm was part of the team who launched buy.at in 2002 and latterly became its General Manager for Sales in the US after the network was bought out by AOL Advertising in 2008.
Malcolm says: “Optimus Performance Marketing has a very solid foundation and an exceptional reputation in the business. In fact, it is at a very similar stage as buy.at was when we achieved our first round of investment, and I’m therefore looking forward to helping build yet another progressive and focused business for this industry.”
Mark Russell, Managing Director at Optimus Performance Marketing, adds: “Malcolm’s knowledge and experience of our industry are remarkable, and will be extremely useful in assisting us to move the business into its new stage of development. We’re delighted he recognises the commitment and determination of the existing team and wants to come onboard to help us take the opportunity we know is out there.”
