Maybe you'd call it a 4'er
Since we did Vidgrid how about Vidyard
Really red, there are two Vid Something companies
In the outlook add-on list too, but I had to search harder
Yeah and they are in the same SPACE
Aren't you glad there isn't a VidVerb?
If you are an investor of Verb, good to know what's out there as there are plenty elsewhere that are all talk generalize and only get DD from longs
So you be the judge and watch another demo
https://www.vidyard.com/video-demo/
Wait for it...
Wait...
about the 45 second mark...
"and when they are finished watching, a video call to action can guide the prospect..."
What?
Finished watching...
Who is going to get to the end?
I was watching the news the other night and they said moving forward, most artist will release short songs/videos less than 2 minutes
There goes those 5 minute in concert solos
It's because attention spans have shrunk
That seems negative...
I would rephrase it and say there is 100 times more multi-media out there wanting you attention.
So, who is ever going to get to the end of your sales video Vidyard that is a mile away?
Vidyard has 200 people (sounds familiar)
Vidyard raised $75M over 9 years
Gee, remember the crying about Verb's raise?
That was from non-investors and people that have no clue about tech stocks
Or they do...
Wonder if the documents have been served yet.
Vidyard is not raising money and a valuation of $75M unless it's a very down round which I don't think it is.
The last year they took on $15M of debt for funding so there goes the down round theorist that will pop up other places
red, you don't know that is wasn't toxic financing
yeah, I do, BMO...
"Serving customers for 200 years and counting, BMO is a highly diversified financial services provider - the 8th largest bank, by assets, in North America. With total assets of $807 billion as of January 31, 2019..."

So they raised/took on debt the same amount as Verb's market cap today
What are they worth or valued at?
That I don't know but will look some more
Figure a lot more than $75M
$150M?
$300M?
$500M?
The fact that they took on debt and not a Series D after their last Series in 2016 tells me they are close. Otherwise they would have done another Series.
Tells me they are cashflow positive but need a little toot
"Thousands of Companies Use Vidyard"
Better than the other Vid what's their name
But how many are 'paying' customers?
You see, it's free to create a video
You want to add a CTA at the end that few will see, oh and passwords protection, that is $180/yr.
You want analytics, that is $3,600 for 1-3 users
Got a real business, cost you $15K a year
Oh and everything after that is à la carte like Single Signon and a bunch more
Here's the kicker...
Video analytics startup Vidyard could list within two years
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-incontact-...6K20131218
That was 7 years ago and 11 days
Guess they aren't the only ones...
The solution is loved by Microsoft, Linkedin, Hubspot, Marketo, Salesforce...
When exactly was that?
All ice cream looks the same until you taste it
All sheets feel the same until you sleep in them
All chili taste the same until you eat it
Wait until they see Verb call to action 'within' the video
Going to be an interactive wake up call...
