East Coast Diversified Corp. Hires Leading Social Media Firm to Raise Vir2o Profile
Global Public Relations and Social Media Marketing Firm SocialRadius Retained to Promote New Engagement Platform
(firmenpresse) - ATLANTA, GA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/01/13 -- East Coast Diversified Corporation (OTCQB: ECDC), a holding corporation with a diversified group of technology companies, announced today that it has engaged SocialRadius (), a global public relations and social media marketing firm, to help bring attention to its new multimedia social engagement platform, Vir2o (), and accompanying nVite™ technology.
Vir2o is a fully interactive media site that creates a new paradigm in the social media landscape by offering a level of interaction never before experienced with other social networks. The network has been in beta testing since early April 2013. ECDC's proprietary nVite technology lets Vir2o members engage with one another by shopping or watching movies together, sharing photos in real-time and more, erasing the passivity normally associated with online social networks.
"We're excited to join forces with SocialRadius," said Kayode Aladesuyi, chairman and chief executive officer of East Coast Diversified Corp. "The firm's wide experience with and depth of knowledge in both publicly traded companies, emerging technologies and social media is a perfect fit for us."

"It's important for a new brand to gain rapid adoption," said Michael Terpin, founder and CEO of SocialRadius and Terpin Communications. "We've helped early-stage companies ranging from Earthink to find their initial footing in the market through aggressive, strategic media relations, and we've also created viral hits such as the blogger outreach for Will.i.am's during the first Obama campaign that was viewed by 50 million people on YouTube and created half a billion traditional media impressions. We will be bringing many of these strategies into our campaign for ECDC."
Vir2o offers real-time, interactive user engagement in a social media environment and in addition provides users with a sense of privacy when sharing content with other users and friends on the site.
