twtMob, rebranding as Speakr, operates a platform that connects brands with social influencers to promote events, products and entertainment across Twitter, Instagram and Vine, and is beta testing on Snapchat. Its technology filters a network of roughly 20,000 top content creators, presents paid posting opportunities, and monitors, delivers and optimizes campaigns in real time; all sponsored posts are disclosed. Since founding in 2010 and based in Los Angeles, the company has executed more than 1,000 campaigns for clients such as Microsoft, Kia, Corona and Samsung and major movie studios and TV networks. Speakr’s campaigns generated more than three billion impressions last year, and the company works with over 60 brands across the past 24 months. Financially, Speakr generated millions in revenue last year, with 2013 revenues double those of 2012 and a new-business close rate above 40 percent. The company plans to use new funding to extend its offerings to additional social networks and to develop predictive technologies and analytics tools for influencer-driven offline engagements and content distribution.
