The State of Social Media 2012 [SLIDES]

Darrell Heaps — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 18:49:52 +0000

I came across this SlideShare earlier today and I wanted to share it here. It’s quite an indepth presentation that covers all aspects of social media. When you have a few minutes I highly recommend flipping through it. The numbers continue to blow me away, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

A quote from the author Esteban Contreras:

There might be saturation, but social media has changed the way we live. And this means social media is no longer a question for marketers. Companies of all sizes have accepted and even embraced the importance of social media. Investments are starting to increase and companies are now building teams to tackle the new risks and opportunities that social media has created.

Darrell Heaps — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 22:05:06 +0000

I’m pleased to announce that we have closed our latest round of funding, bringing the total raised to $3M (CDN) since the fall of 2006. Investors include a mix of institutional funders and angels. You can access the full press release on our web site:

Q4 Web Systems Closes $1.2M in Funding for Web Disclosure

Here are a couple of my quotes from the release:

I’m very pleased to close this latest round of funding in this current market climate. We continue to receive validation for our business model from the addition of new clients, business partners and our ability to attract investment. This latest round of funding will enable us to continue scaling the business while we roll-out our next generation platform in 2009.

This regulatory guidance is a significant change to how material information is distributed to the market. Not only does it lower costs for issuers, but it also creates opportunities for a number of companies, of which we are one. This investment is a validation of the market potential for our platform and web disclosure in general.
