Announcing: Funding, Advisors and Employees

Today is a fantastic day. First, we just announced our Series A Seed Funding. Second, with funding comes access to advisors and partners such a Eric Hippeau, Kenneth Lerer (Huffington Post co-founder), Fabrice Grinda, Ron Conway from SV angel and some fantastic entrepreneurs and angels. Third, new super smart team mates started this week. Fourth, we started providing home page content recommendations for one of the big three networks in the US. *plus a refresh of our website :-)

I firmly believe this validates our approach of visual revenue supporting a data driven media room of the future. Also, if there was ever any doubt, we can underline and bold the statement of Visual Revenue providing the most sophisticated and powerful value-driven programming tool for publishers in the world today! We have 731 unique front pages under management and have the largest customer base of any programming tool vendor.

If you’re in media, or an Editor (or just a friend), and you want to follow this story, do go sign up for our RSS feed or Twitter stream. OR even better, shoot me an email, so we can come by and present our solution to you and your team.

This certainly wouldn’t have happened without the dedicated and enthusiastic work of the brilliant Visual Revenue team. Thanks guys!

Cheers :-)

    Hi Ilya,

    Thanks!!

    AND I am STILL hugely passionate about building real businesses, with real product value and real customers who’s happy to pay money for product they can see accelerate their business. I actually think I can pull that off, even in a VC powered environment.
