SEATTLE, Wash. (SEND2PRESS) — Cynthia Thurlow will be a part of an influential panel of marketing leaders from across the country at the LeadingAge National Leadership Summit on Tuesday, April 21st, 2026. She will present “Rebuilding your Marketing Engine with a modern Mindset.” This session will take place between 1:45 and 3:00 pm. The summit brings together aging service providers, policy experts, advocates, and others to discuss technology, housing, and workforce. Image caption: 3rd3rd marketing. Thurlow will be joined on the panel by Timi Mafua Senior Manager of Studio Management for T-Mobile and another general agency representative, bringing perspectives from global consumer brands as well as leading advertising agencies to benefit operators of senior communities and aging service. The session will examine why many nonprofit senior-living organizations struggle to innovate. It is not because they lack vision, but rather that their leadership teams and boards have to deal with immediate operational priorities. This leaves them limited capacity to advance marketing and brand strategies. The session will also examine hidden “census-killers” that are holding back organizations, such as overreliance on generic marketing, internal micromanagement and fragmented decision making across stakeholders. It will also examine misaligned investments in staffing in a modern, complex market. Speakers will challenge a long-held assumption that adults aged 60+ are a homogenous group and offer a path forward. Attendees gain a modern, practical playbook that will help them: Restructuring marketing for agility and growth Designing new products and experiences that align with evolving consumer expectations Building platforms that generate demand, unlock innovation, and explore effective nonprofit senior living strategies that challenge ageism, as more adults enter their “third third” in life. “I hear, and I see more often, that people ‘wait too long’ when it comes to moving into independent living. It’s a ‘NOT YET” mentality. Thurlow said that while senior living is important, it must realize that it is a mature market and has not consistently innovated. “Younger Baby boomers, in particular don’t see what’s offered or how it’s marketed as themselves,” said Thurlow. This disconnect is driving hesitation and represents a huge opportunity for reinvention. This dynamic is magnified when it comes to selling “care”. Through its work with senior-living organizations across the country, 3rd3rd Marketing helps customers move beyond age as a single demographic and focus on psychodemographics. These include values, interests, aspirations, etc. that better reflect today’s consumers. This approach allows communities to create more meaningful connections, and drive sustainable growth. The session will also examine how leading brands outside senior living approach their marketing systems and what can be applied to the sector immediately. Mafua noted that, in studying the senior living sector, he was struck by the fact that even having a customer base does not guarantee growth. “It’s an important reminder that what got us here won’t get us there. It takes a partner who has the experience and the courage to guide you to achieve real differentiation. It’s not something that most organizations are naturally good at. The LeadingAge National Leadership Summit brings together top executives and decision makers from the senior living and aging service fields to discuss strategies that will shape the future of the industry. About 3rd3rd marketing 3rd3rd is the “Un-Senior Living Agency,” working with senior living communities, mission-driven aging service organizations and B2C categories worldwide. 3rd3rd helps to build authentic connections and increase engagement by removing unintentional stereotypes and ageism.

NEW YORK N.Y. April 20, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE ) — Valuecom announced today the launch of an upgraded coupon verification system. The new system introduces a multi-layer structure designed to improve the accuracy, reliability and usability of discount information online. The new system integrates human validation, automated testing, and real-time feedback from users to address long-standing problems in the coupon ecosystem. These include expired codes, low success rate, and inefficient ranking techniques. Image caption: Valuecom. The core of the upgrade is an automated testing engine which continuously verifies coupon code across real-world shopping scenarios. This system allows for high-frequency verification and wide coverage, ensuring only active offers are prioritised. Internal testing has shown that the success rate for verified coupons during live promotional campaigns can reach as high as 83 percent. This provides users with a more reliable savings experience. Valuecom has added a human verification layer to complement automation. This layer is focused on high-value offers and trending deals. Dedicated teams manually test coupons to capture edge-cases that automated systems might miss. This hybrid approach allows Valuecom maintain both scale, and precision. It sets it apart from traditional coupons platforms that rely on data scraping only or delayed updates. Valuecom also introduced verifiable evidence for selected offers. This includes real testing screenshots that were collected during manual verification. This feature increases transparency by allowing users the ability to see proof of coupon performance, rather than relying solely on unverified claims. The platform incorporates a feedback system where user interactions, such as clicks and reporting, trigger secondary validation processes. This allows for faster detection of issues and dynamic updates to content. Valuecom’s unified rating system is another key improvement. It prioritizes coupons according to actual savings value, rather than commission structures or post time. This ensures users are always presented with the best offers first and reduces the need for trial and error during checkout. Alex Chen, Head Product at Valuecom, said that consumers today expect more than just deals. They want deals that work. With this new verification system we are shifting our focus from quantity to the quality of savings, backed up by real data and continual validation. Valuecom’s upgrade reflects the shift towards data-driven decision tools which simplify the consumer journey and maximize value.

MOUNTAIN VIEW (CALIFORNIA), APRIL 17, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Secured Signing (a global leader in Digital Signing & Remote Online Notarization, or RON), announced that its AI-powered deepfake detector feature, Realify, has seen a 45% increase in adoption among independent and internal notaries. The surge in adoption reflects a growing awareness among legal professionals and notaries of the threat posed by AI generated synthetic media used for video-based identity validation and online meetings. Image caption: Secured signing reports 45% month-on-month growth in notary adoption of the Deepfake detection feature. Realify is integrated directly into Secured Signing’s Video Signing platform. It analyzes signer video and audio in real time, detecting deepfakes and injection attacks. Realify is a seamless third-party tool that runs in the background during a signing session. It provides results to notaries with no friction. Deepfake has fundamentally changed identity fraud. Fraudsters no longer rely on stolen documents or forged autographs. Instead, they can use AI-generated voices and faces that can fool even casual observers. The stakes are higher than ever for industries that rely on video-verified identities, such as legal, financial, healthcare, real estate and government. Traditional verification methods are not designed to take into account synthetic media. Secured Signing created Realify to fill that gap – pairing human-led sessions and an impartial AI layer which detects what the eye cannot. What Notaries Say The rapid adoption by notaries of Realify reflects a fundamental change in how professionals approach identification verification in remote settings. Michelle, a Notary Public who was an early Realify adopter described the impact of this feature on her practice. “Since I implemented this feature in my online remote notarizations my clients and myself feel more confident that we’re dealing with whom we say we are.” This feature has changed how I authenticate the true identity of my clients. STATEMENT FROM MIKE AYAL, CEO, SECURE SIGNING Notaries are at the forefront of identity verification and they tell us that they need much more than a camera or a checklist to be able to do their job with confidence. “At Secured signing, we believe trust in a digital exchange must be built upon certainty. Realify allows notaries, lawyers, and businesses to verify that the person on the screen is not a deepfake but a real person. “We built Realify as the tools for deepfake fraud were already in the hands and minds of bad actors. We must ensure that the tools needed to detect deepfakes can be used by professionals who are defending against them. The response we have received tells us that we did a good job. This advanced system uses 3D liveness detection and biometric facial matching to instantly detect deepfakes and masks before the signing process begins. The audio video call is securely attached to each finalized document, as a tamper-evident audit trail. These layers are combined to form a verification system that is extremely difficult to compromise even with the most sophisticated AI fraud tools. SECURED SIGNING is a global leader in digital document signing, offering Advanced eSignatures, Remote Online Notarization, and trusted by legal professionals, healthcare providers and government agencies. Its platform combines compliance grade security with an intuitive user interface, enabling organizations execute documents with confidence – wherever their signers may be located.
