    Nice scoop on the big news here, Mark!

    At Rho, we are proud to be among the earliest supporters of Fixmo and Rick Segal (like yourself). Like many startup folks up here, I’ve known Rick for many years and he has brilliantly made the switch from VC to Entrepreneur. Rick and the Fixmo team have put together an amazing syndicate of investors, have market leading technology and have a billion dollar vision. Hang on tight, this is about to get very very exciting and interesting.

  2. Impressive news. Strong backers, strong management team, large market opportunity. Indeed, the sky is the limit.

    Future looks good!

  3. I had the pleasure of meeting Rick while at JLA. I miss his blog but great to see him turn that energy into such a great success.

    Regards,
    George

    Curious who are Fixmo’s clients? Website doesn’t say much. This looks like a super inflated hyped story so far, with a lot of investors jumping on the gravy train. I hope I’m wrong, but isn’t time to show some real results instead of raising the bar on expectations with each impressive round of financing. Rick has shown he can raise amazing rounds, being a VC himself, he had friends and knows the game. Waiting for the story to get interesting can be said about just any startup. Isn’t it time to show it after so much investment?

    Jill H,

    You don’t get institutional money from friends, you get institutional money from traction, sales and growth. You’re right Rick knows how to raise money from VC’s because Rick knows how to build a fast growing sustainable business.

    Huge win for him and all the investors. Well done guys.
