4. Storage, Sharing and Collaboration of Digital
Media:
Pictures
Music
Videos
Documents
E-books
12. iCloud (Apple) >Cloud Drive (Amazon)
Box.net >Skydrive
Crowd Cameo >Photo Bucket
Flicker >Carbonite
Smug Mug
These companies offerings are limited in terms of features,
functionality and operating system
ONLY SnapCrowd offers a complete list of services and is
operating system agnostic
When it comes to the areas of performance, design,
functionality and integration SnapCrowd easily distinguishes
itself from the rest of our competition.
13. Who was first? Hard to tell from their
UI. One looks like the other. If we put
Google Drive on here it would look the
same as these.
22. Documents are organized in FOLDERS,
ALL file types accepted. No more
downloading to see what’s in the file.
SnapCrowd provides a PREVIEW of the
document with page flip feature coming
soon.
23. In addition to providing the platform as it is,
we have customized certain solutions that
are repeatable and plan to market the
following services immediately:
Crowd Pix
Lifetime Library
Smart-Board integration
24. Currently providing services to:
Wake Forest University Athletics (CrowdPix)

25. We leverage our technology backbone to provide low cost commercial
solutions like sharing of event photos on stadium and arena video boards.
26. Once a photo is
submitted via
CrowdPix, the venue
now has the ability
to send a bounce-
back message of
their choosing.
27. We offer Advertisers the
option of sending
electronic coupons and
other offers to draw in
customers.
28. 1st generation cloud storage products are
fragmented – requiring as many as 4 different
apps to give one on-line access to all one’s files
▪ Time consuming,
▪ Potentially expensive,
▪ Management headache keeping up with files
Others User Interface ‘s, in most cases, are not
friendly or intuitive
Data protected is questionable
29. Applications are often Operating System and
or Hardware specific
eg. iCloud is for Apple devices only
This reduces the share-ability of data
Except perhaps with Facebook , Apps are not
generally integrated with one another
▪ rather than improve workflow add to the process or
worst case impede workflow further
30. Downloading of files is problematic
Lack of bandwidth = time
Large files = more time
Requires devices to have larger storage
▪ Leads to more costly devices (8mb tablet vs. 64mb tablet)
Syncing of files becomes a bigger issue the more
devices one has
Devices are not always able to open every file type
▪ Translates to more wasted time and expense (wasted
data minutes)
31. One App for all media types
OS Agnostic
Integration with other applications
Customizable link to access one’s own servers
Attractive and intuitive UI
Streaming technology
Syncing
Unlimited file sizes and formats
Encrypted

36. Marketing Plan not carved in stone
Varying approaches both internal and external resources (from
independent individuals , Walter Lentfert, to large international firms
Ogilvy and Mather – Chicago)
Marketing partners in Germany – European Market, Korea – Asia
Market (35 million captive cell phone customers)
Nokia – training video to 9,000 retail stores, 40,000 retail sales
associates

37. Regulatory Pathway – None

attorney relating to various items - early
Management - see bios and also use of
proceeds will be to build out additional team
members
38. Exit :
1. Sell to a Competitor (DropBox, Box.net, Google, Amazon)
2. Sell to a Strategic (Panasonic, Samsung, Nokia, ATT, Verizon)
3. Sell to VC/PE
4. IPO
One of the first three – most likely
Valuation:
Pre-money $3.5M
Post – money = $5.0M
$1.5M = 30%
