Congratulations to DailyBooth and VaynerMedia’s Involvement

Investments By AJ Vaynerchuk Oct 19th |

The Wall Street Journal and TechCrunch are reporting that the rapidly growing social network DailyBooth has raised “roughly” $1 million in financing.

The round included Sequoia Capital, Ron Conway’s SV Angel, Betaworks, Digg co-founder Kevin Rose and Flickr co-founder Caterina Fake.

VaynerMedia is also proud to announce that we were also a part of this round of financing. We are excited to be working with DailyBooth co-founders Ryan Amos and Jon Wheatley and see a bright bright future for the company.

Congratulations to Ryan and Jon. If you haven’t heard of DailyBooth or aren’t signed up, it is absolutely worth a look. For reference, you can find the official VaynerMedia DailyBooth account right here.

A few more accounts you might find interesting:

Kevin Rose, Ashton Kutcher, iJustine, Brittani Taylor, and our very own Gary Vaynerchuk.

Gary and A.J.,

I grabbed Crush It at B&N, last night, and was 70 pages in before I realized I’d only been reading for 45 minutes.

My mind is buzzing. I would love to work with VaynerMedia on a couple of ideas that I have. I’ll be in contact.

I wish you both, as well as the rest of your company, much success.

It’s so wonderful to see Dailybooth getting such great support! I remember when Jon first made the site over a year ago where we played around with photos all day and talked about how exciting it would be to have more than 3 people on it. And boy has it taken off! Thanks for supporting something really incredible!
