Welcome to the new year and thank you for following my blog.
The holidays flew by, but it was great to surround myself with my amazing family and close friends. Now it's back to building on what we started in 2010.
So many great things coming up; like our new Chief Marketing Officer is starting next week and our new Director of West Coast Sales starts next week as well.
It's going to be a super crazy month, as we have partner meetings and trainings. We have our very first official Board of Directors call coming up, and we are exploding our pipeline growth with outbound campaigns.
As most of you know, we just finalized our investor slide deck and it's been very well received. While we still have some tweaking on work flow, it's just a matter of time of finding the rights folks to make that investment into our ever growing company.
We're on the brink! - the brink of exploding in 2011. We have a wide range of client prospects in our pipeline, ranging from small business all the way to billion dollar enterprise corporations. Why now? - great question. Most companies that I have chatted with over the last month have told me the same thing. We have a thousands of brands we represent but can only dedicate some much budget to ramping those brands throughout the year. Plus they have hundreds of vendors, all touching the brand, but no one is monetizing it in a fashion that drives master brand recognition and revenue for the company. It is a common problem that most if not all of the marketing folks I chat with tell me.
In addition, we just opened our Social/Digital Media Managed Services offering for the gaming industry. Backed by IGA Worldwide and Red Urban (Omnicom), we can now offer full service social and digital media managed services to the U.S. & International Gaming markets. If you're a game publisher, then you'll want to chat with Modded to help with your social and digital needs.
On that note, expect the frequency of my blogs to pick up in 2011. Modded is growing, looking for investors, adding new team members and growing internationally. I'm excited to see what this year has for us.
