Can we really Save the World by promoting social media on Selfport?

April 11, 2010 - PRLog -- The key, says founder Kelly Evans, to succeeding where Meta Café failed, and the Youtube partner program has fallen short, is how users collaborate, promoting and judging the media of their friends, and managing businesses as micro sponsors of media makers and talent.  

The promote feature on Selfport is like a cross between playing the lottery and making a playlist on Youtube.  Since promoters can win cash and prizes, and get sponsored, Evans says they will generate funds to pay media makers and talent.  Pooling these together with the P2P micro sponsorships of businesses, Evans says, will generate millions of new entrepreneurial careers in the social media industry.

By the company’s ambitions don’t stop there.  Evans says social entrepreneurialism is the basis for a whole new global socio economic structure, with more opportunity for everyone.  Building on the success of micro finance, and the newer experiments in crowd funding, and social lending, he says the company has a social investing component.  

From the company literature, “The combination of peer investing, a micro angel system, with social business templates, allowing innumerable successful micro  and min businesses, will lead to a world with more wide-spread prosperity, less political conflict, more stable economies, better health and an improved environment.”
