An Introduction to Sumbola Inc.
2014
Social media, the latest content evolution,
is highly personal, and, if we are to be honest,
dubious in its value or importance outside of
a very small, personal realm.
(Yes, of course there are exceptions.)
Sumbola believes web technology is the
best platform to develop a creation and
consumption toolset that enables a new
form of social media…
… you could call it “social transmedia,” (but we won’t).
We believe users want to learn,
grow, create, collaborate, and in
many ways, to be enlightened—to
find and share meaning.
To Do What Matters.
Sumbola is multi-faceted and serves
multiple audiences:
• People who love to read (Readers)
• People who love to write (Writers)
• People who love to collaborate (Talent)
• All of the above (You?)
Your Book on Sumbola—
Now, authors can really use their
imaginations, and expand and enhance
their storytelling. Their books or blogs
can include crowdsourcing from their
fanbase, or authors can add their own
multimedia, social media, products, etc.
Our secret sauce is Revolutio—our publishing engine.
Your Book on other platforms
It’s not just a book, it’s an experience.
The reading experience is expanded
and enhanced with transmedia.
Transmediafy your book or blog.
Sumbola’s technology enables the user
to co-create transmedia projects with
their social network and publish them
easily and efficiently.
Multi-platform reading and
authoring… on the cloud.
Sumbola is a collaboration platform
that allows an artist’s or author’s
work to evolve and expand in the
hands of a designated team, or your
entire fanbase, over time.
All content is embedded in the
flow of the book or blog; not
links that take the user off site
or are only accessible through
another platform.
collaboration
We call this: single-platform transmedia
Sumbola is Latin for share and
contribute. We hope you will join
our platform and…
create + share + inspire!

Editor's Notes

  • #8 Crowdsourcing (user generated content) is one of the most ubiquitous features on the Internet. Long proven to make things stickier and more viral on the web. But crowdsourcing has been one dimensional: text. Sumbola designed its platform to accommodate what it calls: Author Curated Media Crowdsourcing or ACMC. This is one of our most significant competitive advantages.
