WSO Certified User Group

Certified Users,

I just wanted to thank you for your continued contributions to WSO and let you know that a lot of work is going on in the background to make the WSO better.

By the end of October (fingers crossed) WSO will be launched on a completely new design that will make it much less painful to look at. The site will have some new features but basically will be much less confusing / busy. Once that is launched we will be focusing on the FAQ-wiki module which will hopefully help reduce the repetitive questions in the forums even more.

If there is anything else I can do to help or make your experience on WSO better please let me know. We are still pushing forward with the book and will be reaching out to several publishers this week. For those of you that have lost your jobs because of the current crisis I encourage you to reach out to fellow Certified Users to help you land on your feet. Good luck out there.

Thanks,
Patrick

Dear Certified Users,

In order to help grow the business and align incentives I am looking to see if any or all of you would be interested in owning a piece of WallStreetOasis.com?

I am considering issuing options to the Certified Users for a class of common stock that wouldn't have voting rights but would have an economic incentive in WSO's future.

A lot of you have made incredible contributions to the site so I feel like offering you a piece (if you believe in the future) could only help create even more value.

I am extremely dedicated to taking this community to the next level and I know I can use as much help as I can get, especially from all of you. I have incredible resources here at Wharton and will be taking full advantage of the entrepreneurial program to work overtime on the site and improve the user experience and proprietary content.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to give the Certified Users an update on the WSO publication.

As of now we have developed the press release and have ~5-6 chapters written (enough to go out to publishers and agents).

We are working on the press kit which is almost done and our thought was to call the book:

"Survive Wall Street: Detailed Insider Stories and Advice for the Most Demanding Wall Street Careers"

Any suggestions / changes? The title will probably change once a publisher gets their hands on it.

Going out to Harper and Hyperion first due to contacts and other books they have published in finance.

Will keep all of you updated in this group.

-Patrick
