COMMENTARY

During the second quarter, SoMedia continued to build upon the momentum developed over both 2012 and the first quarter of 2013 by executing on its core sales and market development strategy.

The key aspects of the strategy are:

• Optimize each stage of the partner acquisition, activation and sales scale up process
• Implement and optimize segmented automated marketing programs
• Expand services and product offerings through continual product development
• Continue to develop, improve and expand its technology infrastructure

During the second quarter, the Company focused on:

• Increasing total partner signups and signup rates through improvements in sales process
• Reducing partner acquisition costs
• Developing and launching segmented automated email marketing programs
• Beta testing the Automated Video platform and improving user experience
• Development of SoMedia Enterprise, an Enterprise client platform and gateway
• Expanding and improving partner support and implementation processes and tools

“We’re very pleased with the pace at which SoMedia’s business continued to develop during the second quarter,” stated George Fleming, the Company’s President and CEO. “Our principal objective at this time is to increase both our market penetration and revenue by rapidly expanding our base of resellers. As our second quarter demonstrates, we’ve been successful in this regard and our cost per acquisition has improved as a result. Reseller signups have been climbing at an impressive pace. In the year ending 2012, SoMedia completed a total of 668 reseller signups. We exceeded that number during the first quarter alone, when we signed 709 new resellers. We then more than doubled this number during the second quarter, signing 1,370 new resellers. In early July, we were proud to announce that our total reseller count had exceeded 3,000, and our growth has continued at this pace since that point

“At the end of July, we were pleased to introduce our SoMedia Enterprise Platform, which provides us with the opportunity to offer our proven video production technology and processes to a new market - large media and agency partners. This offering will allow us to continue to rapidly grow our reseller roster over the balance of 2013. While this growth remains our focus, we are also turning our attention to the activation of these resellers, and the revenue these activations will produce.”
