"The technology solution (!)Yureekah has developed is one of a kind, and is poised to become a major force in the online media industry," said Larry Bouts, (!)Yureekah advisor and former PepsiCo operating division CFO, Chairman of Six Flags and President ofToys "R" Us International. "It is clear that (!)Yureekah sits in the middle of a $50 billion industry that is growing at 30 plus percent a year."

"As even more advertising dollars move online, (!)Yureekah is ideally positioned to cater to the needs of its various customers and capture up to 50 percent of this market within five years," said Randy Jones, (!)Yureekah advisor and former owner of Worth and Esquire magazines.

The inspiration for (!)Yureekah came from serial entrepreneurs, Devaraj Southworth and Vishal Sharma. "As an agency ourselves, we realized the inefficiencies and the manual processes involved with online competitive research," said (!)Yureekah Co-Founder Vishal Sharma. "In several situations we had to turn away business because timelines were unrealistic for us, let alone larger agencies. We realized that if we, as a boutique agency, were facing these issues, then certainly other professionals were feeling the same pains."

To date, (!)Yureekah has been completely self-funded by Southworth and Sharma, but the decision has been made to seek equity financing, including a major capital campaign launch. "With additional funding, we will continue to file multiple technology patents and launch additional products by years end," said Sharma.
