A bit more info on this company because at the moment its in short supply,
Incite to call AIM
Mobile media group Incite Holdings plans to offer football fans the latest information on their team as they sit in the stands waiting for a match to start.
Soon to join AIM, Incite already has an exclusive contract with Tottenham Hotspur to provide live data, and is set to announce other contracts with Premiership clubs as early as September.
Managing director Simon Hellier says the beauty of launching Incite’s (((on))) product with football clubs is that a community already exists around them. ‘More than 5500 fans signed up in the first three-and-a-half weeks,’ says Hellier of the Spurs service, ‘each being charged 7.50 a month.’
Fans are charged a one-off monthly rate rather than an ad-hoc per-message charge, with most messages being voice mail, as recently when Jamie Redknapp was appointed club captain. ‘Jamie recorded a message himself telling fans what an honour it was to represent the club,’ says Hellier, which he uses as an example of the support for the service within the club.
Incite offers perishable content to existing branded communities through mobile phones, building revenue through charging for the content, as well as selling phones and air-time contracts where required.
Hellier stresses that the Premier League is merely the start, and that the company is planning launches for other brands, ranging from other sports to lifestyle markets and celebrities. ‘A branded community is measured in tens of thousands, and what Incite does is provide niche, highly tailored services, services people will want to pay for,’ he explains.
Much of the investment has already come from Hellier and his co-directors, and the cost of adding new communities is fairly marginal.
‘We can see a clear path of profitability,’ says Hellier, ‘and we’re already generating revenues ahead of plan.’
Incite is due to join AIM on 9 September with a market capitalisation of 7.3 million. It will raise 1.5 million to fund growth for at least the next 12 months. ENDS.

Mobile media firm banks on footballers' voicemails

The Guardian
Incite Holdings, which yesterday announced plans for a flotation, hopes that voicemails from football stars such as the recent Spurs signing, Bobby Zamora, will entice fans to subscribe to its new (((on!))) service.
The mobile media specialist provides information on football team selections and tactics as well as messages from players and coaches. Tottenham Hotspur fans subscribing to the Incite service received a message from Zamora only minutes after he had signed up to the club.
Incite hopes to raise 2m from its listing on the Alternative Investment Market on September 9. It will be valued at about 7.3m.
Simon Hellier, the managing director of Incite, said the money would be used to help in "penetrating key markets".
The company provides the (((on!))) service for four football clubs, including Leeds United and West Ham, and says it has others in the pipeline. It is also planning to introduce lifestyle brands.
Incite has signed up more than 5,000 subscribers and is aiming for a total of 1.6m across 50 brands by 2006.

Jaz, soory mate, not my cup of tea that company.
Anyway taken from the AMR weekly news letter.
NEWCOMER OF THE WEEK
Incite Holdings
Incite came to AIM in September 2003 when 21% of its enlarged capital commanded 1.5 million at a price of 25p. The lucky recipients were able, well before the end of the month, to contemplate a 100% capital gain – on paper at any rate.
Perhaps they deserve their luck. Perhaps the fact that the prospectus recorded that “…the Group has developed the Incite MSP, a scaleable mobile services platform based on proven technology (2G and GPRS) which will provide the Group with all the day-to-day operations required to support Mobile Services for multiple Virtual Operators with multiple content sources, operating on potentially multiple mobile operator Mobile Networks” set their investment antenna aquiver. Perhaps they have plenty of free capital left over from their previous investments in companies using technology and commercial nous to exploit interstices in new markets. Perhaps they are the same people that made a bomb investing in football clubs.
Bluntly put, Orange (for example), to whom Incite is affiliated, will pay for a new customer being delivered to them. So encouraged, Incite (which has the trade mark (((on!)))™ ) seeks Virtual Mobile Operators (Brand Organisations) which will of course provide the customers and specialised content; the ability to provide the service to be derived from the Mobile Network Operator (Orange?), and the specialised, bespoke services to be the province of Incite – for which the latter will of course generate its primary income source. The Brand Organisation will include its ability to provide Mobile Services as part of its marketing activities; Incite will develop a website for the organisation in question; and will man a call centre which will commence the sales order process to deliver potential customers alerted by Brand Organisations.
At this point it will not come as a stunning surprise to all that the cultural manifestation which is the prime target of the Incite team is no less than our very own Premier League. And the all-important reference site has been provided by the first client, “spurs(((on!)))”. Yes, Incite, which has no form of its own (a 150,000 accumulated loss) has linked with Tottenham Hotspur.
As the 2003/2004 football season got under way, Tottenham Hotspur proved to have but little form either, and well before the end of the same September that saw the Incite debut, had parted company with its manager. Perhaps the Incite shareholders will fare better.

INCITE HOLDINGS PLC
('Incite' or the 'Group')
Incite Signs further mobile media agreements with Leeds United and West Ham
United
Mobile media specialist, Incite Holdings Plc, has today announced that it has
made agreements with Premiership football club Leeds United and First Division
West Ham to provide exclusive information and services to the fans of each Club.
Incite, which listed on the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock
Exchange, on 12 September 2003, will offer never-before available services to
fans of these clubs direct to their mobile phones using image, text, voice and
later on video and interactive services moving way beyond the current services
typically offered to date.
Incite recently launched its services with premiership football club Tottenham
Hotspur and have enjoyed a tremendous reception with over 7,500
pre-registrations in a matter of weeks for the 7.50 per month package. The
Group has developed a number of high-profile partnerships including Orange and
BskyB. Orange is providing Incite with the necessary telecommunications
infrastructure and use of their powerful Orange brand. Incite and BSkyB have
worked together to extend unique content management systems capability into the
mobile channel.
Simon Hellier, Managing Director, commented,
'I am extremely pleased to extend (((on!))) football services to include Leeds
United and West Ham. In common with Spurs, both clubs have outstanding
supporters and Incite intends to deliver genuine value to subscribers by
providing them with their own services that each club community demands - as it
happens.
Supporters deserve to be part of the club in hearing the latest news first. The
team sheet, comments direct from the dressing room at half time and the
manager's thoughts in those 10 minutes before the big game. With leeds(((on!)))
and hammers(((on!))) we can deliver this and so much more.'
These additional announcements in football continue the development of (((on!)))
which is creating a new niche market in mobile services.

I'm quite happy to stay in if there is more news to come. I just saw the downturn and wondered if it had run out of steam. I suppose it was inevitable after a 45% increase in 3 days.
Back up again today though :-)

was the West Ham and Leeds news what we had been waiting for?
...also anyone with any views if the Lawrence Dallaglio singing was done with the Rugby World Cup in mind , after all he must have contacts in the right places to devlop Incite into that marketplace.
