It’s been an extremely busy 2011 for the Visual Revenue team, the Platform has developed at a rate of knots, we’ve – signed dozens of customers, have dozens more evaluating the platform, expanded the team (and continue to do so!), won the CNNMoney Startup Event and have now been shortlisted for the Econsultancy Innovation Awards 2012!

This week sees us continue our Fall (Autumn for us Brits!) rollout with the launch of our Collaborative Editorial Environment.

It was a busy end of the week last week up at ONA’11and a fantastic event to meet up with many online Front Page Editors who had a host of very valid questions. As we’ve said on numerous occasions, Editors should be Editors and not Analysts – and with that we provide real-time input (specific recommendations) on what content to place where on a Front Page and for how long.

Tonight CNNMoney hosted its first startup event, at which three entrepreneurs were invited to pitch their ventures — and talk up how their companies could help the CNNMoney brand. “CNNMoney received more than 100 submissions, and winnowed it down to three finalists: Qwanz, Roboinvest and Visual Revenue.”

It’s been a super busy summer for the VR team and over the course of the next month we’ll be pushing a significant number of updates to the Visual Revenue Front Page Platform live. We have a host of exciting new features to showcase, the first of which is: The Article Engagement Indicator

UNYstartups’ Oren Bennett was kind enough to drop by the AP Building last week and have quick chat with Dennis about what we do here at Visual Revenue.
