Relevant hyperlocal news is the perfect addition to SeeSaw’s places.”</p>

Featured at doctor, dentist, and vet offices; specialty retail locations; public places; health clubs; kid gyms; grocery stores; bars and restaurants, amongst others, these networks reach audiences such as Alpha Moms, Mobile Millennials, College Students and Urban Dwellers. The Patch content will feature news items from Patch, with a call to action to see more of the story by visiting the local Patch site.

<p><strong>About Gotham Comedy Club</strong><br />
Native New Yorkers Chris Mazzilli and Michael Reisman opened Gotham Comedy Club in May 1996. Mazzilli, a graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology, was roundly praised at that time for his top to bottom design of the original 3,300 square foot space. They felt that it was time for changes in the way comedy clubs have been perceived: all comedy and no ambiance. In December, 2005, Gotham Comedy Club opened its new 10,000 square foot flagship location providing New York with live performances from today&#8217;s elite comedians, and since its inception has appealed to the city&#8217;s distinguished tastes.  </p>
<p>Hailed by USA Today as “One of the Top 10 Places in the Country to See Stand-up”, Gotham Comedy Club has been featured on NBC’s ‘Last Comic Standing’, ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ and is home to Comedy Central’s hit comedy series, ‘Live at Gotham’.  Comedy heavyweights such as Jerry Seinfeld, Dave Chappelle, Colin Quinn and Lewis Black have all taken the stage at this upscale New York City Comedy Club. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Unique Venues Latest Exclusive SeeSaw Network Partner</em></p>
<p>San Francisco, CA.  June 8, 2011 - SeeSaw Networks, a leading digital place-based media company, and Animals Inc., a subsidiary of The Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA), today announced SeeSaw as the exclusive advertising sales partner for the place-based video network that Animals Inc. is currently deploying in major market zoo and aquarium destinations in the United States.</p>
<p>This unique network offers advertisers the opportunity to connect with the elusive Moms and Kids audience as they spend their day together learning about nature, conservation, and our planet, while viewing the life styles of bears, dolphins, elephants,  sea otters and many other animals in 17 DMAs around the country.  Digital screens will be placed primarily in high-dwell, highly interactive areas of the zoos and aquariums and will feature compelling wildlife and other nature related video content. Additionally, venue-specific content will inform and help families get the most out of their visit. </p>
<p>“Advertisers and their agencies are constantly looking for venues with captive viewing environments, where they can connect with hard-to-reach families on the go” said Monte Zweben, Founder and Chairman of SeeSaw Networks.  “Animals Inc.’s unique and compelling venues combined with the incredible zoo and aquarium audience demographic will enable SeeSaw to further enhance its leadership position in offering advertisers one of the best ways to connect with moms and families.”</p>
<p>The AZA has found that aquarium and zoo visitors are receptive to brand messaging. In a three-year, nationwide visitor attitude study, conducted by AZA, findings concluded that the public felt zoos and aquariums play an important role in conservation education and animal care, and provide a stronger connection to nature – brand values that moms care about.</p>
<p>More than 175 million people visited AZA-accredited zoos and aquariums last year, making these zoos and aquariums some of the best places for advertisers to engage families. </p>
<p>“Joining forces with SeeSaw will allow advertisers and sponsors the ability to reach the millions of families who frequent zoos and aquariums throughout the country,” said AZA Senior Vice President Jill Nicoll. “Brands that feature a conservation message, an environmental product or service, or promote animal care products or services will resonate especially well with zoo and aquarium moms and their families.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Model enables media planners to view a multi-network digital place-based media plan using the same media metrics as TV<br />
</em></p>
<p>San Francisco, CA March 23, 2010 – SeeSaw Networks, a leading digital place-based media company, and member of the Digital Place-based Advertising Association (DPAA), today announced the development of a proprietary reach and frequency model that calculates media plan audience deliveries across multiple digital place-based media networks. Armed with reliable audience deliveries for the place-based video medium, media planners can now further optimize their video media plans that reach audiences in - and away from - the living room.</p>
<p>SeeSaw’s reach and frequency model was created in conjunction with Leslie Wood, a leading industry consultant with deep expertise in advertising and media planning research.  Leslie is a frequent industry speaker at forums such as the ARF, Canadian ARF, ANA, Radio TV Rating Council and Marketing Modelers Group and is currently Co-Chair of the ARF’s 360 Media &#038; Marketing Super Council. “Digital place-based media plan deliveries must consider not only the media consumption of an audience member within a particular venue where a video ad network is present, but also the complex patterns of  visiting multiple venues within a given span of time”, said Leslie Wood, President of Leslie Wood Research, Inc.  Developing place-based buys through the SeeSaw platform, planners will now be able to analyze various overall media campaign scenarios by plugging reliable, robust audience delivery data into their agency’s media mix modeling software.</p>
<p>“I am very encouraged about this development, as getting to trustworthy and comparable audience delivery metrics is important for digital place-based networks. They need to be viewed and compared on a somewhat ‘level playing field’ as other video platforms,” stated Sean Smith, SVP Group Media Director at DraftFCB.  “My planning teams look to assemble holistic video offers that deliver the highest engagement levels possible against consumer segments, and we should have in many cases, similar metrics and estimates to get us there.”</p>
<p>Audiences belonging to life patterns such as Moms &#038; Families, Mobile Millennials and Business Professionals are spending an increasingly large percentage of their waking hours in places where traditional media simply cannot  reach them. Place-based digital video media enables advertisers to intercept the life patterns of these audiences as they move to and from venues such as kid’s gyms, health clubs, grocery stores, specialty retailers, airports and gas stations.</p>
<p>“Digital place-based networks engage consumers as they go about their daily lives”, said Susan Danaher, President of the DPAA.  “With multi-network reach and frequency modeling, digital place-based media becomes the perfect complement to effectively extend national brand campaigns.”     </p>
<p>“SeeSaw has always uniquely enabled advertisers to effectively intercept hard-to-reach audiences in their everyday life patterns”, said Peter Bowen, CEO of SeeSaw Networks. “But until now, it has been virtually impossible for media planners to optimally plan campaigns to maximize reach and frequency objectives that include place-based media. SeeSaw helps planners compare TV plans and digital place-based media plans side-by-side, fostering an integrated plan that improves the performance of a TV-only campaign.”  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>SeeSaw chosen from over 5000 companies with potential to make waves in digital place-based media space</em></p>
<p>San Francisco, CA.  Mar 10, 2011 - SeeSaw Networks, a leading San Francisco based digital media company, has been named to The Wall Street Journal’s The Next Big Thing list which seeks to identify and rank venture-backed companies across all industries that have the capital, executive experience and investor know-how to succeed. SeeSaw was selected from a pool of more than 5,000 companies and ranked based on proprietary data from Dow Jones VentureSource and input from Dow Jones VentureWire’s reporters and editors. </p>
<p>“Venture capitalists are always looking for companies with a new idea that will prove powerful enough to explode into the marketplace,” said Alan Murray, deputy managing editor of The Wall Street Journal. “The Next Big Thing highlights companies that we believe are worth watching and have a chance to make waves in their industry.”</p>
<p>The Next Big Thing is an annual ranking published by The Wall Street Journal. To be eligible for the ranking, a company must be based in the U.S., have raised an equity round of financing in the three years ended Nov. 30, 2010 and have a valuation of $1 billion or less. The ranking was calculated by applying a set of four financial criteria: the track records of success for both a company&#8217;s founders and management; track records for the investors on its board; the amount of capital raised in the last three years; and the percentage change in a company&#8217;s valuation in the last year. Dow Jones VentureWire reporters and editors also provided their perspective and expertise beyond the numbers.</p>
<p>“We are thrilled to be named to the Wall Street Journal’s Next Big Thing list, said Peter Bowen, CEO of SeeSaw Networks. “Our leadership position in the digital place-based media space has come from continued innovation in developing and delivering unique, targeted, effective campaigns for top advertisers and it is great to be acknowledged by such a prestigious group”.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Network delivers 87 GRPs offering a broad distribution for rich media assets</em></p>
<p>San Francisco, CA.  Feb 24, 2011 – SeeSaw Networks, a leading digital place-based media company, today announced that, with the addition of several new network partners, it has surpassed 200 million weekly impressions delivered across 40 different kinds of venues that people frequent daily.  With this extensive national coverage of over 87 GRPs for adults 18 and over, and the unique ability to optimize precisely targeted campaigns, SeeSaw has become a top choice of leading brands for digital place-based advertising.</p>
<p>SeeSaw’s proprietary Life Pattern Marketing methodology and comprehensive media planning platform, offers leading brands the opportunity for unparalleled audience targeting capabilities. Life Pattern Marketing is the practice of placing companies’ brand messages on digital screens that are located where busy people really are: out and about, living their daily lives. Using digital place-based media, advertisers can reach people as they move to and from venues such as in health clubs, restaurants and coffee shops, gas stations, airports, grocery stores and retail establishments - places where people go every day.  Advertisers and agencies use the vast SeeSaw network to strategically complement and extend the impact of other advertising vehicles such as TV, the Internet and social media with digital place-based media in order to better engage on-the-go consumers such as alpha moms, business professionals, mobile millennials and college students. </p>
<p>SeeSaw also provides a fully immersive experience at select locations by utilizing experiential media such as sampling and activity integration.  Messages in these delivery vehicles are synchronized with what goes on at these venues to maximize contextual relevance. Combining these delivery vehicles with branded video content and advertising enables brands to increase their engagement with their target consumers.</p>
<p>“We are extremely excited about crossing this very important 200 million impression milestone”, said Peter Bowen, CEO of SeeSaw Networks. “Our strong partnerships with over 45 networks provides us with unparalleled scale.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Exclusive Inventory, Retail Activation, Optimization, New Creative Vehicles and 3rd Party Research Now Packaged For Advertisers</em></p>
<p><strong>San Francisco, CA August 31, 2010 - </strong>SeeSaw  Networks, a leading digital place-based media company, today introduced an innovative end-to-end solution  that provides marketers the most effective way to reach and activate moms and  families.   This new offering includes  exclusive ad inventory at venues frequented by moms and families; new creative  vehicles that deliver contextually relevant messages to engage this audience;  and a packaged end-to-end solution to optimally plan, execute and measure the efficacy of digital place-based advertising to this sought after demographic. </p>
<p>&#8220;SeeSaw is widely known as the Life Pattern company” said  Monte Zweben, Founder and Chairman of the Board, SeeSaw Networks. &#8220;But now, in  addition to intercepting audiences with ads as they work, play and socialize, SeeSaw is delivering exclusive new creative vehicles that engage and activate Moms and Families&#8221;.</p>
<p>SeeSaw’s Moms and Families Life Pattern Network offers over 18,000 digital place-based media venues with aggregate weekly traffic of more  than 116 million moms. Boosted by recent strategic relationships with  PlayNetwork, opening access to venues such as Steve Madden, Ashley Furniture, Journeys  Kidz, ecko TV, MyGym, The Little Gym, JW Tumbles and Kidville; and with Cabco  TV Kart TM Network to resell its premium grocery-store venues and carts in top national grocery chains, the SeeSaw Mom and Family Network combines  over 40 individual networks, delivering over 50 million impressions per week.</p>
<p>“We have already seen the value of partnering with SeeSaw,”  said Lon Troxel, Chairman and CEO of PlayNetwork.  “Our retailers are excited to participate in  new innovative advertising campaigns that engage their customers when they are  out and about -shopping, eating or socializing.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;By identifying Moms’ and families’  regular routines and behaviors, or Life Patterns, we are able to reach and  engage prospects where and when they are likely to be receptive to branded  messaging. By ensuring the content is contextually relevant through our new  creative vehicles, we have the opportunity to add value to a Mom’s day, and  positively influence her brand behavior. In effect, our goal is to become an  important part of the fabric of Moms’ lives”, said Zweben.</p>
<p>SeeSaw Networks’ new  creative vehicles include:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>Messages synchronized with venue to maximize contextual relevance.</li>
<li>Bluetooth triggered ads in grocery stores, synchronizing promotional messages with in-store location.</li>
<li>Branded content and programming on select networks.</li>
<li>Social media extension enabling customers to fan, follow or respond to brand promotions on popular social media platforms via mobile devices.</li>
<li>Full ‘venue integration’ at certain locations with experiential media including sampling and activity integration.</li>
</ul>
<p>The SeeSaw solution also utilizes SeeSawAds.com, SeeSaw Network’s demand side platform for optimizing campaigns with precision  targeting. SeeSawAds.com allows SeeSaw media specialists to precisely target  geographies, networks, and demographics. SeeSawAds.com is unique in that it  selects which locations should optimally be in a plan. Traditional planning  methods select or reject entire categories of venues resulting inefficient  plans. For example, in planning a highly targeted campaign for moms,  SeeSawAds.com will select individual locations that index over a specified  level (e.g.150) for moms while meeting the budget criteria and omit locations  below the index threshold.</p>
<p>Finally, the solution integrates research from Edison  Research, a leading provider of consumer research with over 10,000 experienced  interviewers, to assess overall campaign effectiveness, including brand / ad  awareness, attitude shifts, and changes in purchase intent.  SeeSaw has partnered with Edison Research to  evaluate the effectiveness of several campaigns, across 6 different industry  vertical markets, at more than 20 different types of venues. An example of the integrated offering can be  seen in SeeSaw’s previous announcement of campaign effectiveness research conducted by Edison Research following a place-based advertising campaign by  SeeSaw with Delta Airlines.</p>
