What Company Is Offering:
Zooppa is an innovative platform for advertising made by users and sponsored by companies.Zooppa originated from the idea of creating a space for social advertising through user generated content.
How It Works:
Based on the briefs the companies provide, users are invited to create their own commercials for that brand. Participation in a Zooppa contest can take many forms: designing an animated sequence or creating a print ad with the company logo, writing a script or concept for a potential ad, or actually shooting their own video.
For each company that Zooppa partners with, a new contest is launched for users to compete in.
Users are also encouraged to create their ads using concepts or scripts posted by others. As an incentive to share one another's creativity, Zooppa rewards this type of collaboration with a Bonus Team Prize.
Once users have uploaded their contributions, it is up to them to decide the winners. Users rate the ads and it is based on these ratings that Zooppa awards the cash prizes.
How Is It Different:
What makes Zooppa unique is how the winners are rewarded. Each Zoop$ that users earn are equivalent to real US dollars. Once users have accumulated a minimum of 1.000 Zoop$, they can convert their Zoop$ into a real cash pay out.
Zooppa is, therefore, a new advertising model based on the Internet and the possibility to connect people from all over the world by putting them in contact with another.
Whether in fact, the companies that sponsor the contests are interested in using the posted materials in future advertising campaigns on other mediums, Zooppa plays an important role as an intermediary between the authors of the content and the companies. In this way, Zooppa guarantees a pricing range from a minimum to a maximum value, in which the interests of the two parties (the users and the companies) can be satisfied.

Want to get rich? You sure can. By playing your ambition card(s) especially well with those carefully honed skills derived from countless hours passing go on within that capitalistic wonderworld called Monopoly - plus a good amount of “friendly” exploitation - you can build quite an impressive portfolio of Facebook associates through FriendFolio that the application’s developers would like to describe as nothing less than a game for “beautiful people, CEOs, and Apprentice hopefuls.”

What Company Is Offering:
Marin Software provides an enterprise-class paid search management application for advertisers and agencies. Marin Search Marketer addresses the workflow, analysis and optimization needs of professional search marketers, saving time and improving financial performance. Marin offers a 30-day, full-featured free trial with pay-as-you-go pricing and is designed for those who are spending at least $50,000 monthly on paid search.
How Much They Got From VCs:
Marin Software, provider of the leading enterprise-class paid search management application for advertisers and agencies, announced a $7.25 million Series B financing led by Benchmark Capital. As part of this round, Bruce Dunlevie, General Partner at Benchmark, will join Marin's Board of Directors. The new funds will be used to further develop Marin Search Marketer?, Marin's paid search management application, and to expand the company's sales and marketing efforts.
While traditional advertising is losing steam, spending on paid search advertising (also known as search engine marketing, or SEM) is large and growing fast. According to a recent report by JP Morgan, paid search in the United States is expected to grow 23% annually, from $11.8 billion in 2007 to $26.8 billion in 2011. Over the same period, international markets are projected to grow 34% annually from $10.2 billion to $33.1 billion. As paid search has become integral to the marketing mix, with programs expanding to include thousands of concurrent and often overlapping campaigns, and tens of thousands to millions of keywords, an urgent need has arisen for better search management tools. To date, most search marketers have had few options other than to manually manage and optimize campaigns using Excel spreadsheets and search engine ad centers.

Clueray---How To Focus Your Search
What Company Is Offering:
Clueray, Inc. was created to provide people a better way to search. By providing unique ways to focus search, Clueray technology takes search and search-based applications beyond the limitations of keywords – beyond the large collections of mixed-intent, mixed-quality results – to quality results which meet specific information needs.
How It Works:
Clueray’s IntentMatch technology starts with a collection of documents (typically returned by a keyword-based search engine) and returns a subset of those documents, the focused results, which meet a set of specified criteria. In the first phase of our public beta, the user is able to focus the results based on the kind of document they are looking for, something we refer to as the document intent. Future versions will expose additional focus elements which allow the user to more completely express their query intent.
Clueray’s IntentMatch technology takes end users and search-based apps beyond the “here are several results which may or may not work for you, you figure it out from here” paradigm to qualified results which match a specified information need.
The segmentation engine breaks up a document into regions of interest based on size, shape, content, and location on the page. Like many “hard” artificial intelligence problems, document segmentation is pretty easy for a human to do. However, automating this task for use in an unstructured environment like the web is particularly challenging. Clueray’s unique approach to solving this problem draws from multiple disciplines and can be tailored to address specific segmentation needs.

At the end of each month, Rasba will send each store an invoice to collect the sales and user affiliate commissions.
Most brands on Rasba already have online stores on their official websites, but still decide to create another store on Rasba to act as an additional marketing and selling tool because of our unique features. Setting up a store on Rasba should be very simple and fast, but if you wish to have someone else build a store on Rasba for you, we offer a fully customizable in-house store building service free of charge for a limited time only.
