No Extra Work – They can continue to post to
their favorite social networks and Rouse pulls
the posts in.
Stronger Connection to Fans – By
centralizing all of their social media into ONE
location, fans won't miss any of their updates.
This creates a deeper, more loyal relationship
with fans.
Wider Reach – Celebrities will now be able to
connect with the millions of fans that are not
on all of the social networks that they post on,
ultimately broadening their fan base.
The Fans
One-stop-shop – Fans no longer have to “app hop” to
follow their favorites.
Verified Accounts - Rouse platform does the work for
them. Fans no longer have to search social networks
to try and find the “real” accounts for their favorites.
Available to those not on social networks - Fans
do not have to join every social network to follow their
favorites as Rouse pulls in those networks.
Quick access to the social networks - Fans can still
reply to posts through the social networks directly from
Rouse.
Specialized content - Users’ walls will not be
cluttered with a variety of content, like on other social
