April 21, 2005 -- Less than 9 months after a hasty launch, Sploofus.com has exploded to over 5,000 registered members, thousands of trivia quizzes in hundreds of topics, and nearly
100,000 page views per day. That is an astounding 3,000,000 page impressions per month.
We have accomplished this with absolutely no startup capital only a dream, some homegrown programming, and a wonderful community of Sploofuseers.
Today, Sploofus is officially entering a seed-stage venture capital round. Our goal is to raise money for the implementation of a comprehensive business plan that will diversify the
Sploofus Engine in new market segments, with fewer usage constraints and limitations. This capital will be used for many things, some of which include:
- Full-time and responsive support staff
- Larger and faster rewards
- Enhanced network infrastructure
- Real-time multiplayer games
- Massive marketing campaigns to attract new users
- Commercial software licensing models
Sploofus is the first of many Aggregate Data Gateway's ("ADG") developed and deployed by Fourfront Communications Inc. ("FCI").
FCI has defined an Aggregate Data Gateway as a proprietary web application which harvests user data and reciprocates with managed content, providing value for multiple stakeholder
channels and revenue models. The Company has developed an initial product that takes advantage of a ubiquitous form of entertainment (trivia), with personal computers, handheld devices,
and the Internet via user-generated online content portals. It's current and future products will extend the presence, functionality and value of managed information into the home and
readily identified business segments.
FCI's fundamental promise of value is the fulfillment of innovative data-driven web applications to various stakeholders. FCI is creating a differentiation in the market by offering an
"entertainment driven offering" to data aggregation and the commitment to provide a superior customer experience. FCI's core function is to continuously innovate, design, market and
distribute these web applications as content delivery channels. In addition to developing front end software, another core function is the development of back end data systems, managed
content delivery and data mining systems.
FCI's mission is to create the worlds largest aggregate source of trivia, survey and poll questions in a format suitable for both academic and commercial leverage. Secondary to data
aggregation, FCI seeks to develop front-end web applications which allow customers to capitalize on FCI data sources.
Based on our research, FCI envisions a future where international consumers retract from their televisions and converge in the Internet entertainment space. Assuming a quixotically
ambitious goal of promoting academia, FCI aims to recruit these consumers as subscribed users. Our competitive advantage, however, is FCI's ability to sustain and repurpose its software
for corporate clients wishing to measure and promote employee knowledge and incentive driven promotional programs.
Rather than rallying a VC round from multiple stakeholders, Sploofus is seeking a single investor or investment group to complete this initial round of funding.
