Mentoring our latest start-up — Shizzlr
Posted on 12. Mar, 2011 by Ira Yellen in Blog, business development, entrepreneurs, innovation, technology
At our agency we take pride in helping support the marketing and public relations efforts of start-ups and entrepreneurs. Our latest mentoring effort is for a company call Shizzlr created- and headed- by Nicholas Jaensch and Keith Besette. It differs from larger social media sites by creating small, private networks of its users’ closest friends…like people they’ve called within the past couple weeks. The service pulls information from sites like Google and Yelp to showcase events and entertainment in members’ city or town. Local businesses then have the ability to steer these groups to their location with deals and incentives.
To learn more about it, go and listen to interview from WNPR. Shizzlr is currently enrolling individuals and groups. Given the current response they will have signed up over 50,000 by early summer. Go to shizzlr.com and sign up.
