Vancouver, British Columbia, June 27, 2012 - InvestmentPitch.com, which specializes in producing short three minute videos based on research reports and significant news releases, for delivery to the investment community, announces the appointment of Tom Corcoran as manager of business development.
Mr. Corcoran graduated in 1989 from Simon Fraser University with an Applied Science degree in Communications. He spent over a decade as a broadcast journalist in both radio and TV, before launching a career in Corporate Communications for public companies involved in mining, specialty materials and nano-technology. Mr. Corcoran has further experience in corporate finance, having raised more than $125 million on behalf of public companies.
InvestmentPitch's Barry Morgan stated, "We are excited to have a person of Tom's calibre join our team. With approximate 20 years of corporate marketing, advertising, and media experience, Mr. Corcoran brings an exceptional array of skills to InvestmentPitch.com. In addition to his broad experience in the financial markets, he's one of those rare individuals who is equally comfortable in front of the camera. Tom will be responsible for increasing our exposure within the investment community."
Tom Corcoran stated, "The landscape of social media that embraces video usage is no different than the epiphanies experienced via Gutenberg or McLuhan. From the written word to the medium is the message - the power of video is only relevant in the immediacy of (a) its timely context and (b) its ability to be truthful. However, without the proper recourse of mainstream, distribution channels, the message via the medium and the use of words - falls incredibly flat. By virtue of offering the 'complete package' - it made my decision to join Barry, Joe and the other members of the InvestmentPitch family - a very easy choice."
