Obvious product for anyone doing complex enterprise sales where there are multiple stakeholders (e.g. security review, legal etc.). Frankly, anything where your champion has to do tasks.

@nparasram beautiful app but there's literally 6 events on here. Heads up... People don't create events for event sites and outside of niches (like EDM) engagement is like 1-2x per month for event discovery. Happy to chat privately about it Martin at UpOut.com

Yea there have been an insane number of these startups. Local/Events is an incredibly challenging space. It's just not engaging enough Just start here: is foursquare a runaway success? Is foursquare's Swarm a runaway success? Ok. A derivative of this therefore it can't be runaway success? Simple question: what's wrong with the current "text someone to invite them to an event" mechanism? Quick...

Sounds very similar to PacketZoom... aka using a new protocol designed for mobile connections and larger data loss. What do you guys think? http://packetzoom.com/

Jill's done a great job for RushTix esp. the partnership with FunCheap in SF. There's a lot of movers in this subscription space including Jukely which offers unlimited concert tickets for $25/month ($45 for pairs). UpOut Insiders Plug: I run a competing service to these two. Choose up to 3 events each month and we send you a free pair of tickets to each. Unlike most subscriptions we also have...

Is the goal here to save time like Qwaya? Or is the goal here to replace agencies who "optimize" your ads. In other words, can I expect Kuhcoon to outperform our own ad optimizations or just save our internal guys time. Unsure of the value proposition because the way pricing works... it seems to imply that Kuhcoon should outperform us.

Literally thought of this idea a few weeks back. Love this.

@sidorenkor Some suggestions: You cannot monetize this product until later because you need to have more users. You should have deeper profiles than just Name + Job (See Weave App for profiles). You should fake some users by getting friends etc. to focus down into a specific area.

Thanks @rrhoover (dropping by TradeCraft today)... we've sent Insiders now to over 700 different events. Personal faves: fire dancing, a ninja-esque scavenger hunt, orgasm class and one we're promoting right now.. a LIVE bull run in Alameda.

Each month we send members 40+ events to pick from. They pick 2 and we send them a pair of complimentary tickets to each one. If you don't pick anything, we send you a pair of movie tickets instead.
