Uloop is hiring a sales & marketing manager:
Uloop is looking for bright, energetic sales/marketing managers to join our team. Manage approximately 20 Campus representatives at 10 universities; Analyze data from each school and adjust on-campus marketing efforts; Create campus-specific marketing campaigns; Visit campuses multiple times during the semester/quarter
New companies on my radar:
- KnowledgeBid A new start-up by Rob Webb recently launched a new product/site, Analysts Edge. It provides user generated news for the financial community. It’s a well done site that was launched on a very quick turn-around. Rob has a good blog too.
- Cardways is an interesting start-up that allows you to send old-fashioned paper greeting cards to your friend directly from their website, fully personalized, and include a gift card from the retailer and cash amount of your choice. I’m not sure how long they’ve been around but I just learned about them and that they are here in Chicago.
- Network Blackbox has created a network-attached automated backup device.
- I recently developed a Facebook app, Grow-a-Gift, with a couple other people. Currently it’s one of the fastest growing apps on Facebook. Over 150,000 users have installed it in the last 10 days! If there are any other Facebook developers out there send me an email, I’d love to hear about your experience.
