AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN - IBN, a multifaceted communications organization engaged in connecting public companies to the investment community, is pleased to announce the release of the latest episode of The TechMediaWire Podcast as part of its sustained effort to provide specialized content distribution via widespread syndication channels.
The TechMediaWire Podcast delivers informative updates and exclusive interviews with executives operating in the tech industry. The TechMediaWire Podcast's latest episode features Robert Steele, Founder and CEO of Thumzup Media Corp. (NASDAQ: TZUP), an emerging leader in social media branding and programmatic marketing solutions.
During the interview, Steele discussed Thumzup's business model and how the company is helping small businesses stand out.
"We think of Thumzup as Uber for advertising. Just like Uber created tens of billions of dollars of value by democratizing ride sharing so that anyone can participate and make a little extra money by driving people around, we believe that Thumzup is in the process of democratizing the $200 billion social media marketing and advertising industry. We're opening it up so that everybody can participate and get paid to tell their friends about brands and businesses that they love.”
"Thumzup is the only platform we know of that makes it really easy for businesses to pay people cash to post about the brand or business to their friends on their personal social media. For instance, I recently went to a coffee shop, and, when I was standing in line, the woman in front of me ordered a latte. I pointed out a sign on the counter saying that this coffee shop will pay you $10 to share a photo of your latte with your friends on Instagram. Before I'd even finished that sentence, this stranger pulled her phone out of her purse, downloaded Thumzup and made $10 for her $6 latte. That's frictionless.”
"The problem for all the small businesses in the United States is that everyone has their face in their phone. If a business is not on that phone, they're not even going to be noticed in 2025. Particularly for small businesses, they're busy making food and manning the counter. They don't have time to be on Instagram. We solve that problem for them. Businesses can go on the Thumzup website, create a campaign, pick how much they want to pay people to post, and pick how many posts they want to buy… It's a very simple concept, and we have first-mover advantage.”
