Welcome aboard skyrockit!

On behalf of myself and my fellow skyrockiters, I want to welcome you to our freshly minted and revamped website which complements our re-branding to skyrockit that is being announced to the Press today.  We are now proud to call ourselves a Mobile Entertainment Agency.

Since 2001 we have enjoyed our Industry position as a leading mobile content company having had the pleasure of working with some of the world's best media companies to supply content to the top US carriers and having executed exciting mobile content campaigns for leading consumer brands.  Now the landscape has evolved, for us mobile is no longer just a handset, it's a lifestyle, we can connect to all our friends and our entertainment and information on the go through a plethora of applications.  Delivery pipes can now handle unlimited amounts of rich media, handsets are easy to use, have big screens and are truly multimedia capable and mobile is more and more integrated with other channels like social media and online .Given all these advances we have been rebuilding the company over the last year so that we could successfully help, our existing media clients and our growing stable of new brand clients, take advantage of all the opportunities that this new landscape presents.  Brands now have the opportunity to produce their own branded entertainment experiences like we have done with our friends at Zippo and media companies can now act as brand managers as we look to help them exploit their media IP in new and exciting ways.

Although our eye is firmly focused on the future, we at skyrockit remain committed to our core business of delivering the best and freshest content to our distribution partners. We continue to work with the top carriers in the United States and will soon be announcing additional carrier partners both domestically and abroad. We are thrilled about our expansion on this front, and will also be announcing exciting and innovative additional content partners in the coming months.

We are also extremely proud and excited to have launched our Romplr Remix platform and app. In the words of the Los Angeles Times: “This is what remix culture is about – letting fans interact, not just listen.” Last year we jumped out of the gates with hip-hop phenom Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em, LMFAO, jeremih and The Alchemist.. We finished the year with the successful launch of the 50 Cent Romplr in partnership with vitaminwater, the app went to number 1 on the music app store in a week!  Keep an eye out for new announcements in the coming months as we take Romplr to the next level with a broad catalogue of songs for you to choose from.  If you’re a label or artist interested in getting involved in Romplr, please contact us at busdev-AT-skyrockit-DOT-com.  If you are a fan and have a request for a song you want to remix you can email me at jonv-AT-skyrockit-DOT-com

You can find all of our Apps here.

We would like to thank our partners for their continued enthusiasm and support. We are very proud of our progress and evolution as a company, and we are thrilled about what’s to come. Please check back soon for news about skyrockit, our partners and for general industry news   I also welcome comments and feedback - in our world everything starts with a conversation.  We look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Jon Vlassopulos

CEO
