Orchestrated turn-around of the venture-backed online video digital memories company, ultimately resulting in the successful sale of the company to Hewlett-Packard’s Snapfish division. Achievements included the development and deployment of a low cost partner-driven “freemium” subscription business model, the acquisition of key Tier 1 partners including Shutterfly, AOL, Creative Labs, and Roku, the launch of new, innovative video services which resulted in a 38% compound quarterly growth rate in paid subscriptions over five consecutive quarters, and the five-fold increase of the company’s monthly revenues and commensurate decrease in monthly burn.
