MARKET OVERVIEW

Sense of humor is the heart and soul of a revolution in personalization that drives massive, rapidly growing markets.

Social Networking and Personalization

$100+BILLION Facebook showed the power of

recommendations by friends. Pandora used an algorithm to make even better personal

recommendations for music. Laflife’s algorithm makes better recommendations

for content and people who really click with your sense of humor.

Media and Advertising$82+ BILLIONAppealing to a consumer’s sense of humor is the holy grail of advertising. The most important studies in the field have confirmed the power of successful humor in advertising. A big problem: no one is ever sure why something works. Laflife understands how to put a smile on your face and what put it there.

On-line Dating$2+BILLION

Multiple polls of top on-line dating communities show that sense of humor

is one of the very top “must haves” in any relationship.

On-line Recruiting$14+ BILLIONMillions of job postings—more than ever before—now state “SENSE OF HUMOR REQUIRED”. No product or service has ever been available to address this growing concern.
