Takkle.com acquired by Alloy
Takkle, the high school sports focused social network, has been acquired by Alloy Marketing.
We worked with Takkle from its inception and many of the founders including David Birnbaum and Jay Adya have seen the company through to this deal. We created their initial brand strategy “One Field”, and then Doug designed their logo. As stakeholders in the company we have consulted with them over the years on key decisions, UI choices, key hires, and helping drive advertisers their way when possible. I think this deal makes a lot of sense for Takkle and allows them to leverage Alloy’s network to accelerate growth.
You will be seeing a shake out in the social network space over the coming year and I applaud David and his team for making a move to assure when that shake out does happen, they are still one of the players.
