FLEMINGTON, NJ -- Bizzingo, Inc. (OTCBB: BIZZ) has executed a letter of intent to acquire select assets of FutureNow Inc. to complement its business-to-business social network, as well as drive additional revenue for the Company.
Bizzingo will leverage FutureNow's persona-based lead generation platform to further develop its product offering and provide greater qualified business-to-business leads for its members.
FutureNow has been at the forefront of the commercial web since 1998, and has serviced over a thousand companies utilizing the web to drive leads. These clients engaged FutureNow looking for a more complete digital toolset to drive leads. Integrating the Bizzingo offering with FutureNow's lead generation platform and expertise provides Bizzingo with the first of its kind b2b-exclusive search and social network.
"FutureNow is a logical fit to our business due to their years of direct experience working with businesses, leveraging the power of the web to drive qualified business leads -- the very same target market Bizzingo aims to reach," says Doug Toth, Chief Executive Officer of Bizzingo.
"The value of a transaction with Bizzingo is twofold," says Howard Kaplan, CEO of FutureNow. "It gives us access to additional capital to expand our sales effort to ramp our core business. Additionally, it allows us to unlock the power of the Software-as-a-Service platform we've built, and extend it in new ways by integrating into the Bizzingo platform to deliver even more qualified leads to our b2b clients, as well as their b2b members."
