GYG Turns One!
Today, June 1st, 2008, marks the one year anniversary of the launch of Get Your Gamez! During this year we have experienced all of the highs and lows that a new business can expect. Our customer base has grown to over 200 customers, due in large part to our continued efforts to grow our online presence in search engines and to referrals from our current customers, who we can’t even begin to thank enough!
Highlights of 2007:
- Continued month-over-month revenue and customer base growth
- Launch of the GYG Blog
- Media coverage on local Arizona news programs
- Launch of the GYG B2B sales model, providing Wii Sports nights and Rock Band nights to local establishments, corporate events, etc
- First contract signed for gaming nights for 3 nights every week at a well-known Arizona bar/grill
- Incorporated from a partnership to a corporation with change in ownership structure
- Business relationships developed with “Level Up” (radio program on the Maxim channel on Sirius Satellite Radio, providing weekly reviews and content), Pregame Lobby, Cool Stuff, Drumshh accessories, The Gamerz Club and the Gathering of Gamers
Goals for 2008:
- Expand B2B model to continue growth; obtain commitments for every night of the week
- Hire employees to help maintain B2B business model
- Expand business by adding a distribution center in central or eastern United States
- Expansion of retail office space
- Expansion of management/ownership group by adding additional partner(s)
- Advertising focus on radio and television ads
- SEO growth and blog development
Thank you very much to everyone who has been part of making our first year a success. We are very excited to see where GYG goes from here!
