What Company Is Offering:
Smilebox makes it easy to connect with friends and family in a more creative and compelling way.Smilebox creates a new category of service called "creative messaging," which draws from related categories including photo services, scrapbooking and ecards; delivering a new medium for communication that is unparalleled in its ability to convey mood, thought and emotion.
How Is It Different:
Unlike other solutions that focus on organizing, editing, and sharing photos or sending pre-packaged ecards, the Smilebox online service enables users to create something truly powerful by choosing from hundreds of unique multimedia designs, easily personalizing them with their photos, video, music, words, and style, and then sharing them via email, blog, or print.
How Much They Got From VCs:
Smilebox, the leader in multimedia expressions technology, announced it has raised $7 million in Series B financing. Bessemer Venture Partners led the round and was joined by existing investor Frazier Technology Ventures. Rob Stavis, Managing Partner at Bessemer Venture Partners, will join the Smilebox board of directors.
How This Product Is Progressing:
The Series B financing comes at a time when more than 1.8 million users have installed the Smilebox service since its launch in June 2006 and more than 1.3 million unique users worldwide access it monthly.
