NEW YORK, NY, United States, via ETELIGIS INC., 10/27/2014 - - VizConnect, Inc. (OTCQB: VIZC) (http://www.VizConnect.com), a publicly traded mobile marketing firm, has announced the addition of Travis Best to its Advisory Board.
Founded in 2011, VizConnect is a mobile video platform designed to help social celebrities, businesses, and brands visually connect with and monetize online fans, followers, and customers using mobile and online video.
The Massachusetts-based firm utilizes proprietary software and innovative marketing solutions to enable business operators, brands, and entrepreneurs to develop, distribute, and monetize mobile video through a cloud-based platform.
The addition of Best strengthens VizConnects move toward a social celebrity-based business model and evolution of its mobile video platforms.
Best is a native of Springfield, MA and retired 10-year veteran of the National Basketball Association. The honorable mention All American point guard at Georgia Tech was a 1995 first-round draft pick of the Indiana Pacers and helped the team to the 2000 NBA Finals. In 2009 Best founded the Travis Best Foundation, a sports-focused youth charity that teaches under-served youth to utilize the entire academic and life resources that sports affords.
Overall, I hope to raise awareness of the VizConnect model, be involved in business development, and utilize my relationships to help move this company forward, said Best. I have worked in the past with projects that involved monetizing social networks and I really think the VizConnect platform represents the best opportunity in that space.
Best first realized the value of social networks during his post-NBA basketball career overseas.
I was playing in Europe for five years and totally disconnected from the fan-base that I had developed, he said. VizConnect provides the optimum way to not only stay connected through mobile video, but also to develop revenue streams off that social celebrity.
VizConnect CEO Paul Cooleen welcomes the addition of Best to the advisory board.
We are honored to have Travis Best officially join the VizConnect team, said Cooleen. He can be an integral piece of the puzzle as we continue to build out our social celebrity model of connecting brands with fans.
