How has 扣扣传媒 shown up for you as a partner?

Ari Daie鈥淲e have a great investor base. But we also have two types of investors: those who are pure capital partners and those who are extraordinarily focused on helping to add value. 扣扣传媒 falls squarely into the latter category. Our business depends on our ability to make connections and execute, and 扣扣传媒 has been crucial in connecting us with key strategic partners that have allowed our business to grow and expand in and around our existing verticals.鈥

From your perspective, what is the most important quality to have in a VC investor and how has 扣扣传媒 lived up to that?

Ari Daie鈥淲e don鈥檛 call our investors 鈥渋nvestors.鈥 We call them Partners. They are my co-owners in this business. We鈥檙e on the same side of the table. We have aligned goals. And we only work with investors 鈥 partners 鈥 who share those values. An investor gives you money; a partner takes an active role in helping you put that money to good use. Our partners at 扣扣传媒 embody that idea by adding value across our business: offering guidance, giving us constructive feedback, making key strategic introductions. It takes a village to raise a company, too, and we鈥檙e very happy that 扣扣传媒 is a part of ours.鈥

How has 扣扣传媒 worked to really connect with you and your vision for your company?

Ari Daie鈥溈劭鄞 understands our mission and the new avenues for growth, and they鈥檝e used that knowledge to help accelerate our business. They鈥檝e made introductions for us (including DraftKings and Citi Rewards), they jam with us whenever we need a sounding board, and they meet with us quarterly to talk about our trajectory and how they can help. Again, it鈥檚 a true Partnership. That might be a big ask for some investors, but it鈥檚 the only way 扣扣传媒 knows how to operate, and we couldn鈥檛 be more grateful for that.鈥
