About Launchrr

Overview
We live in a world where for the most part, content owners and distribution outlets are set apart (for example –Studios claim to owns the content, and XXX networks distribute the content, or Somebody sells it to the market). Content owners are also disgrace from data and owning the full conversion funnel.
The opportunity for content owners to put their own content in front of a more targeted audience and complete the conversion chain is far too good a prospect and this will ultimately lead the windows collapsing.
