in gewissem Umfang vom Network kannablisiert wird, was aber meines Erachtesn nicht sehr problematisch ist, weil die Margins im Network sehr viel höher liegen.

alles toll um "Havvit" , nur leider fehlt die Version für Android immer noch ...
Hoffe diese kommt nun auch möglichst Zeitnah.Technische Probleme sind zum Schluss immer lösbar,für eine Investition spricht hier die Basis(Gigantischer Markt,Patente ,etc.).
Neue Versionen für Android oder Windows Phone ist für mich also nur eine reine Zeitfrage.
Sollte aber jetzt irgend eine andere positive News ,z.B. von der Messe : http://finance.yahoo.com/news/...ation-exhibit-ad-tech-123000741.html
rein schneien, gibt es hier auch schnell wieder sehr , sehr  dunkelgrüne Tage.
Bin mal auf die neuen Zahlen von den Institutionellen gespannt. Werde dann sicher auch bald zum nächstes Quartal veröffentlich.

Allen hier viel Erfolg!  

Hallo,

kann mir jemand sagen wie und wie viel Local Corp mit Havvit verdienen kann.  

denn es ist vermutlich in erster Linie eine Werbeobjekt, um die Möglichkeiten von Krillion zu verdeutlichen - und damit letztendlich die Möglichkeiten, die Local Corp bietet, noch umfangreicher bei seinen Netztwerkpartner unterzubringen und neue Partner hinzuzugewinnen. Wobei ich einmanl davon ausgehe, dass die Intensivierung der Geschäftsbeziehungen Vorrang vor dem Hinzugewinn hat - denn offenisichtlich will man nicht jede mögliche Webseite als Kunde und muss hier auch auf Qualität setzen. Denn bei Webseiten tauchen zwei Probleme auf: Erstens macht es wenig Sinn, mit kaum gelesenen Webseiten in Kontak zu treten, da hier das Kosten-/Nutzen-Verhältnis schlecht sein dürfte, und zweitens müssen sie zahlungsfähig sein, auch wenn das Geld meist zunächst einmal Local Corp zufließt und dann ein Teil weitergeleitet wird (es gibt aber auch umgekehrte Beziehungen).

Aussichtsreicher sehe ich die Lage allerdings für White-Label-Versionen von H a v v it - hier ist der kühnste Traum von Local Corp, dass man hier bis zu 200 Stück in den Markt bringen könnte. Um das aber stärker in eine Bewertung einbringen zu können, müssten da mehrere konkrete Abschlüsse ans Tageslicht kommen.

Mein Optimisums gründet sich aber auch auf die patentrechtliche Unterlegung von Krillion und Havvit - meines Erachtens hätte man nach der Integration von Krillion wohl kaum so schnell die Mitgliederzahl im Netzwerk steigern können, wenn Local Corp auf die einzigartige patentrechtliche Absicherung hätte verweisen können, die andere nicht haben.  

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/...you-love/id748246886?ls=1&mt=8  

die Monthly-User-Zahlen zwar von 18,4 Millionen auf 17,0 Millionen zurückgegangen , aber das lässt sich ausschließlich mit den drei Tagen weniger erklären, bei täglicher Zählweise hätte es sogar einen geringfügigen Anstieg gegeben.

Nichtsdestotrotz wird die Flagshipseite aber in gewussen Umfang vom Netzwerk kannibalisiert, was aber leicht zu verkraften ist, wiel die Margins im Netzwerk wesentlich höher sind.

Da insgesamt in den letzten Präsentationen/8 K-Filings an die SEC 27 Millionen Monthly-User angeführt werden, müssen aus dem Netzwerk 10 Millionen kommen.

Local Corporation Launches nFuse™, Hyperlocal, Data-Driven Mobile Ad Solution, Powered by Krillion®
Print
Local Corp. (MM) (NASDAQ:LOCM)
Intraday Stock Chart
Today : Wednesday 26 March 2014
Pilot Ad Campaigns Running in Two Markets
Local Corporation (NASDAQ: LOCM), a leading local advertising and technology company, today announced the launch of nFuse, its hyperlocal, data-driven mobile ad solution, powered by the company’s Krillion® local shopping platform.
The company’s powerful, location-aware mobile ad solution allows national and regional brands to more effectively engage with on-the-go consumers through location-based rich media ads that use a consumer’s current location to retrieve nearby local store information, and up-to-the-minute product, pricing, and in-stock availability details.
“By combining the power of hyper-local targeting with dozens of dynamic data elements and features from the Krillion platform, we are pushing the use of local data in advertising to new levels, providing a more intelligent rich advertising solution that we believe will allow retailers to drive consumer engagement and influence more cross-channel purchases,” said Sherry Thomas-Zon, vice president of local shopping, Local Corporation.
The first pilot campaigns utilizing the new solution have already been launched in two regional markets on behalf of a large national retailer. Local Corporation developed and designed this more engaging interactive ad unit to meet the retailer’s goal of driving high-intent mobile consumers both online and in-store.
Dynamic data elements and user actions available through nFuse include: time-zone adjusted store hour messaging, maps, image galleries for promoted categories, updated sale pricing, and an opt-in calendar feature for future sale reminders.
Local Corporation is partnering with leading independent global mobile ad network, InMobi on the integration and delivery of the mobile ad campaign. InMobi is the world's largest independent mobile ad network, engaging 759 million consumers across 165 countries.
The new nFuse solution is powered by Krillion’s local shopping platform, which aggregates, normalizes and distributes dynamic, national and regional retail shopping content, from approximately 120,000 store locations, representing nearly 3 million localized products.
The company will be introducing nFuse and other exciting products this week at ad:tech San Francisco (booth #2418), March 26-27, 2014.

aus #6491....The first pilot campaigns utilizing the new solution have already been launched in two regional markets on behalf of a large national retailer.....

Libuda: Wer ist dieser große nationale Händler,kannst du dazu vll. etwas schreiben? Warum wird dieser nicht  mit Namen genannt?

PS:Seit Clarke nicht mehr CEO ist, bläst ein neuer Wind durch die AG. Der Newsflow hat sich jedenfalls verbessert. Irgendwann werden dann die Short-Deppen brennen, verstehe nicht, warum man überhaupt noch den Kurs so deckeln kann.
Abwarten!  

bisher ein scheinbar unendliches ASK . Jede Weiterentwicklung und News der AG wird mit Kursverfall beantwortet.
Logisch;jede technische Verbesserung bzw.News schadet der AG.*Lach*

Andere Papiere würden nach den aktuellen Ankündigungen , mit mindest 10% eröffnen.
Bei ANGI wären vll. 50% drin gewesen ? ;-)))
Irgend ein Broker-Teufel will das Papier einfach nicht steigen sehen.  

irgendjemand das Papier nicht steigen sehen will (meines Erachtens kaum Broker-Teufel, denn die sind zu schwach auf der Brust), obwohl es fundamental okay ist. Ich habe jedenfalls, obwohl in dieser Größenordnung nicht zu empfehlen, im Laufe des Jahres 2014 auf jetzt 101,500 Aktien aufgestockt - das sind zwiscehn 0,4% und 0,5% der vorhandenen Aktien, um meine Position schlicht und einfach offenzulegen, was von den kriminellen Manipulatoren auf den US-Boards bisher noch keiner auch nur ansatzweise getan hat.  

dies wäre dann natürlich eine "Spielergemeinschaft-Broker-Teufel" ;-)) in Auftrag von ABC.etc..
Aber Trotzdem.
Wie verhält es sich in USA mit der Meldepflicht ,wenn ein Broker/Bank  für Fa. XY  Papiere einsammelt.Dies meldet doch keiner,kann also keine Meldestelle erfassen?
Guck noch mal in #6492  rein.  

Mobile Payment Partner fehlt nun noch, das kann dann den "Durchbruch" bringen.
Würde mir in diese Richtung eine News wünschen. Schaun mer mal...

If this will happen, Local Corp's multiple will increase from idiotic low 0.4-times-revenues to 4-times-revenues and the high 22-times-revenues of Yelp will decrease to 7-times-revneues.

And the surprise for you: After this change with the factor 30 the multiple of Yelp is near double of Local Corp, too.

And therefore ignore the ID's of from the Yelp incubators/mangement paid pushers like The Street-Clown Cramer or ID's of criminal Mellissa Davis and gambino Adams like usicktrol12 or prettyfunny or other from the criminal crime behind The Street Sweeper, who want to steal your money, because saturation-effects will hurt Yelp.

The business of Local Corp is more sustainable than the business of Yelp. Yelp is bad for real consumer-products, you can it only use for restaurants and similar. But if you had found an excellent restaurant, you will ignore Yelp in the future. But by every buy of a new product, you want to look at the inventory and prices of some shops around you and use an offer of Local Corp, especially since Krillion was intergrated in the most offers of Local Corp.

And therefore a rational investor should hurry with a change from extreme overvalued Yelp with the big danger of a fast saturation to the extreme undervalued Local Corp with a lot higher sustainability than Yelp

Study: Crowdsourced Stock Opinions Beat Analysts, News

Researchers from City University of Hong Kong, Purdue University and Georgia Institute of Technology found that the tone of stock market opinion blogs published on investor forum SeekingAlpha predicted stock returns, as well as earnings surprises, above and beyond what was evident from Wall Street analyst reports and financial news articles.

Researchers analyzed about 100,000 Seeking Alpha articles and commentary published between 2005 and 2012 for the paper “Wisdom of Crowds: The Value of Stock Opinions Transmitted Through Social Media,” which is forthcoming in the Review of Financial Studies.

“Seeking Alpha is the only platform to date that we have shown can predict individual stock returns,” said Yu Jeffrey Hu, associate professor at Georgia Tech’s Scheller College of Business and one of the authors of the study. Other authors of the study are Hailiang Chen, Prabuddha De, and Byoung-Hyoun Hwang.
Dr. Hu said that research was in no way sponsored or facilitated by Seeking Alpha. The company did provide a proprietary data stream for one portion of the research, he said.

The researchers looked for the fraction of negative words in the articles and commentary on a particular stock on a particular date, and then tracked the performance of the stock after the blog publication.
It turned out that the more negative the blogs and blog comments were on a stock, the more likely the stock was to perform worse than similar stocks in the next several months. Similarly, the negative tone of SeekingAlpha articles predicted earnings surprises, which are the earnings results reported by companies relative to the average of analysts’ earnings forecasts.
