I don’t believe that Spotrunner’s hardship is solely due to market conditions. Executives leaving after only a few months could be a clue. Also, their competitor CheapTVSpots is hiring in the USA and Singapore according to Forbes, so not every TV and web video company is having difficulties at present. Although, you must admit, Spotzer hasn’t been heard from in awhile. I think Spotzer’s CEO said that he was inspired by the Spotrunner model – so maybe they’re having the same trouble as Spotrunner, now. Have you interviewed Spotzer recently? If you do, ask them what their monthly burn rate is. It would be interesting to compare to Spotruiner’s rumored million dollar plus monthly line of red ink.
