A month ago I was looking at the state of the industry in the entertainment industry. As a wedding DJ with Paris Creative, we were already the canaries in the coal mine and our industry was essentially put on hold because of the coronavirus pandemic. As we sit here on Memorial Day weekend a couple of states are in their very early stages of opening things up to the industry which may take some time but it’s certainly a bright spot to look ahead to the future of the industry as we all come back stronger than ever.
A month ago I also decided to take a huge leap of faith and started a crowdfunding campaign to bridge the gap of funding to launch cue Essentials. And I am proud to announce that we have reached our goals! cue Essentials is now fully funded and I have already started our discussions with my development team to start the process to move forward with the next sprint of development and release cue Essentials to the public. And as we start to open up, as our industry begins to ramp back up, there will be a new tool for everyone to consider and adopt to make manging their events a whole lot better.
First I want to deeply thank every person who has contributed, every person who has shared, every person who has provided guidance to help get to this stage. It is because of all of you that we have crushed this milestone and enabled the project to move forward.
The funding does not end here. With Essentials now in progress it’s time to look forward to the Premium release and the funding to get that released as well. Any interested parties please reach out to me at lou.paris@cueplatform.com.
Thank you again everyone!
