RE: RE: PYN Listingairgoddafi you bring some interesting points to the table.
The first point about users (about 16M as we speak) are scattered around the globe. I understand what you state about a "fragmented" user base. But there is strength in being international as it creates a stronger global presence and allows user interface in different parts of the global village. I think that is a strength and not a weakness.
I think that you are attempting to be mean when you stated that Poynt's growth is not exponential. I truly believe that it is exponential and I will link you to their last financial but will extract some points before so doing.
Q4 2011 Operational Highlights
- The Company's mobile local search and advertising platform, Poynt ("Poynt" or the "Platform"), surpassed 12.4 million unique users representing 154% growth year over year
Full Year 2011 Results
Revenues increased 139% to $2.4 million from $1.0 million in 2010. This improvement was primarily due to the continued global increase in Poynt user adoption.
Poynt User Stats
Total unique users increased 21% sequentially to 12.4 million from 10.2 million in the previous quarter, and increased 154% from 4.9 million in 2010. As of April 30, 2012 the Platform's unique user base exceeds 15.4 million. Poynt Corp.'s revenue model includes user queries, page views, display advertising and transactions within the Platform, with user growth a key metric that drives the Company's revenues. Each user query generates several page views, which are monetized through display advertising and sponsored listings paid for by our advertisers. These advertising placements generate revenues on a cost per thousand impressions, or CPM, basis or on a cost per click, or CPC, basis. Transactions, such as ticket sales and restaurant reservations, also contribute to revenues on a fee for service basis.
