Pitch:

Digital Journal is a tech/social media company aiming to redefine how media operates. With 36K members in 200 countries and 3.5M monthly visitors we’ve grown entirely by word of mouth with a team of 4 people and no outside capital. Our 3 pillars: Technology, social and content. We leverage a proprietary CMS and data to automate growth around content/user management; we gamify and create social profiles of media consumers; and we leverage our global reach to produce high-quality content at scale, cost-effectively. Next steps: Expand from one media site into a network using automation and social tools to scale.
