Big Opportunity: In 2011, online social networking will reach over 58% of the total U.S. online population (expected to reach 65% by 2015) and offer advertisers access to potential consumer expenditure close to $9 trillion

And families are becoming a larger part of the space…

• 16 million moms use social networks 3-5 hours a day• In 2010, grandparents were the fastest growing segment on Facebook

(+124%)• Over 20 million children and teenagers use virtual worlds monthly

Families Need a Better Solution

COPPA prohibits anyone under 13 from using Facebook, but 7-8 million kids are still using the site

Facebook is one of the top cited contributors for divorce in the U.S.

Privacy and data safety problems have been detailed in the media

Cyber-bullying has become a real issue for teenagers and kids

But Existing Social Networks Create Big Issues For Families…

Supporting Opportunity: Organizations that provide solutions involving kids under 13 have an issue with existing social networking solutions. This includes organizations like schools, churches, Girl / Boy Scouts, sports leagues, non-profits, home school programs, AARP, and the military.

Organizations that deal with kids are struggling with a social media strategy…

• With nearly 4 mm active members, the Girl Scouts do not have a workable social network

• AARP has over 40 million members and no solution for grandparents to interact with grandkids.

• Numerous school districts involved in litigation around the use of Facebook by students.

Organizations That Support Families Also Need A Solution

Organizations afraid of litigation in case of rogue adult with child.

Closed networks don’t address key organizational needs such as fundraising, recruiting, external exposure.

Adult mentors / teachers not allowed to interact with kids under 13.

Because Existing Social Networks Create Big Issues…

Don’t have the expertise to deal with issues created by current social networking solutions.
