Cologroup is getting hooked up!
 

Just so you know, I have some good news.....

Cologroup is getting hooked up with about $5 Mil from a VC firm called Global Funding. I receive some of the money this week and I am going to hire some additional employees and make big improvements. If you have any suggestions on what you guys want from us...or just a hosting company in general, let me know here or by email, [email protected]

I posted this on here, because I think this is a pretty good deal, because it is not too often that money gets given to companies that are involved in the adult industry and there are a lot of things that could use improvement and money makes that possible. I am really excited about this, and it will be interesting to see what Cologroup comes up with over the next year.

Cheers!

I'm sure Global Funding would feel proud if they knew
you where announcing it like this...........

congrats Jason, you definitely deserve success!

Yes, I was reading this and thought the same.

Pimpshost - you need a PR person to handle your public relation matters.

Yes they would, they believe in the industry and Cologroup. That is why they put the money up.

Oh and congratulations with winning the trust of an investor, that is always a good sign.

I am just letting people know whats up. What actually gets done is what's gonna count. I have a lot of ideas I want to put to work.

You just got $5mil invested in your adult related company
and you do a post on this board announcing it as

"I think this is a pretty good deal".

I just think you are wasting a great opportunity.. that's all.

Congrats though :thumbsup

Thanks, ControlThy and Mr. Thumbs....I have been involved with the VC industry for about 3 years and it took a long time to gain the respect of the investors and figure out how to go about getting some backing. Biggest thing is it proves that in these tough times, investors are willing to try something different.

C'mon Mr Thumbs you are being a lil hard on 'ol Jason. I think he was stating it simply and modestly. I would expect him to do something worthwile with it since he has already shown some initiative by creating a pretty decent hosting upstart.

Good luck Jason.

This industry doesn't really work well with mainstream PR.

How many of you guys read press releases from the adult industry?

I think its great to post an announcement like that on this board.

agree

Congrats Jason.

And good luck bro.

:winkwink: :thumbsup

:glugglug

That is great news!

Congrats...

Jason, Congrats on this success!!! Give em hell. :thumbsup

Thanks you guys, this really kicks ass.

Sounds like fun :thumbsup

SetTheWorldonFire!

Sounds pretty kick ass man. Good luck.

Congrats, I've heard nothing but good things about Cologroup.

hellz yeah!
=)

Yes jason,

hire me for PR, only $20,000 a week and i will give you 20min of my time :)

great news to hear, and i am glad i have boxes with you, and will be moving over more

now go buy yourself a porsche or ferrari you deserve it! :)

They gave you $5M and you don't have a detailed plan on what exactly you are going to do with it?

Dude, hook me up with their number. I have some vague plans myself, perhaps they have an extra million laying around collecting dust.

Felicitações Jason!

Man 5 mil sounds sweet.

thats badass, good luck bro! :thumbsup

impressive site! :thumbsup :thumbsup

Not to rain on anyones parade, but how does going 5 million dollars in debt equal success? And why is a Steve Miller song going on in my head? :winkwink:

Jason my congratulations :thumbsup

how many of you fucks emailed them for a loan? :1orglaugh

Suggestions for improvements:

Improved support via phone.
Improved support via email.
Improved support via ticket system.
Improved support via live help.

Otherwise cologroup is great! But urgent issues must be dealt with urgently.

Dude, now you simply HAVE TO throw a Huge Kick Ass Partey !!

You are so right on. It takes more than a week to get a new account up. Getting webalizer and other small items takes at least 10 days. Cheap price though. I guess you get what you pay for.

congrats Jason :thumbsup

btw turn on your icq :winkwink:

5 million huh? Guess your going to have to be paying for golf for the rest of the year!! :) Congrats!!:thumbsup

support -

jason is partnering up with a guy named tyler for a support team. support will be very good in the next couple of weeks and on.

they are hireing a few new guys just to handle support.

Congratulations!

Dude, we'll see if you have all of your fingers next year...

LOL!
