Beer-loving commerce startup TapRm raises $1.5M

Jason Sherman, founder and CEO of TapRm (pronounced “taproom”), says it’s time for beer-lovers to do more of their shopping online.

It’s an industry that Sherman knows well, having worked as an attorney at Anheuser Busch and at the alcohol giant’s ZX Ventures incubator. He said it was through the job that he began wondering why only 0.2% of beer purchases take place online.

The answer, he suggested, is fundamentally regulatory, with different rules in different states, but each of them adhering to some form of the three-tier system —where alcohol is produced by one group of businesses, distributed by another group and finally sold to consumers by a third. That means a brewery could get into legal trouble for selling its beer online.

Sherman said his startup TapRm — which has raised $1.5 million in funding — accommodates these rules by “finding unique licenses that have existed and [bringing] certain licenses together,” ultimately allowing it to find “legal ways to combine those tiers.”

In other words, TapRm is able to serve as both distributor and retailer. So it works with breweries to sell their beer to more than 600 bars, restaurants and supermarkets, but it also allows them to sell their beer directly to consumers, via branded websites. In fact, Sherman said TapRm rewards breweries for prioritizing online sales.

“We give back a portion of all sales for everything they sell online, so they have an incentive to push traffic to their … site,” he said. “If you sell through TapRm, you get back $2 to $8 on every case, depending on your volume.”

Sherman acknowledged that as a consumer, you may be perfectly happy to “go down the road to get your Corona or your Heineken any day of the week” — and if so, there may not be any reason for you to buy from TapRm. But if you’re a fan of a brewery that you can’t find in stores, or if you’re you’re simply “tired of having to rely on what’s on the shelf” and you want to try something new, then online purchases could be your best bet.

That focus on enabling craft breweries to sell to consumers, rather than simply serving as a delivery system for brick-and-mortar liquor stores, is also what distinguishes TapRm from startups like Drizly.

In addition, the company operates an online marketplace of its own and provides beer recommendations across its different online storefronts. When I wondered whether any customers were concerned about the startup promoting competing breweries, Sherman said he hasn’t gotten any complaints, because breweries see the TapRm marketplace as “another retail outlet.”

He added, “We would never up-sell and cross-sell completely competitive products, ever.”

The startup currently delivers throughout New York state, with two-hour delivery in Brooklyn. Sherman said he remains focused on “building our footprint in New York City,” but he also plans to launch in three additional cities next year.

The funding was led by The Broe Group, with participation from VU Venture Partners, Branded Strategic Hospitality and others.

Broe Real Estate Group Sells Four Building California Medical Campus

DENVER, Feb. 21, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Broe Real Estate Group (BREG), a private real estate investment firm headquartered in Denver confirmed the sale of a four-building 287,539 square foot medical office park located at 1620, 1640, 1660 and 1680 East Roseville Parkway (Parkway Corporate Plaza) in Roseville, Calif. The buyer was a joint venture between Anchor Health Properties and an affiliate of Morgan Stanley.

This transaction marks BREG’s second medical office turnaround in the past three months. In November, the company sold the 121,789 square foot Shady Grove Maryland Medical Pavilion after its transformation from vacant to 72.5% occupancy in just four years. Combined, these medical office projects exceeded $121 million in combined gross asset value.

"We see good intrinsic value in the suburban office space, in particular medical office properties, and will continue to seek repositioning opportunities in Colorado and other western growth markets," said BREG CEO Doug Wells. "Parkway Plaza and Shady Grove Medical Pavilion were both challenged assets with significant potential that were successfully transformed into vibrant and diversified medical campuses. Our hands-on approach with tenants has forged strong relationships with regional and national medical providers."

Parkway Corporate Plaza was constructed in 1999-2000. At its September 2015 acquisition, the property was carried a near 30% vacancy rate and faced substantial pending medical and office tenant lease expirations. BREG immediately prioritized near-term rollover and in-place vacancy while implementing a significant capital plan across the property. The asset repositioning strategy resulted in a stabilized occupancy of 100% with a weighted-average lease term in excess of seven years upon sale.

"Parkway Corporate Plaza is a prime example of our value-add investment strategy," said BREG vice president Peter Albro. "At acquisition, we believed in the asset’s central location and its functionality for both office and medical users. We implemented a repositioning business plan to better serve the high concentration of health care providers in the immediate area."

Today Parkway Corporate Plaza is home to a deep pool of medical and office users. The tenant roster at the property currently includes Kaiser Permanente, Sutter Health, UC Davis Health, Wells Fargo and the State of California.

Seth Siegel and team from Cushman and Wakefield’s San Francisco office listed the property for sale.

Beddr’s Sleep Sensor-Mobile App Gets $5.6 Million in Series A Funding, Plans to Offer Access to Sleep Physicians in the Future

The article Beddr’s Sleep Sensor-Mobile App Gets $5.6 Million in Series A Funding, Plans to Offer Access to Sleep Physicians in the Future is republished from https://thomasalwyndavis.com/

With $5.6 million in Series A funding led by Three Leaf Ventures, Beddr is launching a new product in the sleep space. Other investors in the round included the Stanford-StartX Fund, Delta Dental Washington Seed Fund, and I.T. Farm.

Now available for pre-order, the Beddr SleepTuner is the initial step in the company’s plan to deliver an integrated, digital approach to understanding and improving sleep.

“Working with leading sleep medicine experts, we’re bringing science into consumers’ homes with the first comprehensive solution that helps individuals understand factors impacting their sleep,” says Mike Kisch, co-founder and CEO of Beddr, in a release. “The Beddr SleepTuner helps people objectively understand the impact of sleep position, weight loss, alcohol consumption, as well as current treatments on overall sleep quality. Every morning, an individual will be presented with clinical grade insights and actions that may improve breathing, increase sleep duration, reduce snoring and improve recuperation.”

The Beddr approach integrates a sleep sensor, mobile app, and predictive analytics. The SleepTuner’s sensor is designed for comfort and ease of use when worn while sleeping over the course of multiple nights. It captures and correlates data points that include blood oxygen saturation, stopped breathing events, heart rate, heart rate spikes and sleep position. The SleepTuner connects wirelessly with the Beddr mobile app, guiding users through the “sleep tuning” process. The app compares each sleep assessment result to the prior one so users can see the impact of sleep tuning over time.

Beddr will ship an FDA-listed solution that leverages the science used in sleep labs, according to the company. “The Beddr SleepTuner is based on the best practices we use in a sleep clinic,” says Brandon R. Peters, MD, a practicing neurologist and board-certified sleep physician at Virginia Mason Medical Center in Seattle, who also sits on Beddr’s clinical advisory board. “As more and more people come to understand the importance of high-quality sleep, the demand for sleep expertise is exploding, and yet the supply of board-certified sleep physicians cannot keep up with demand. Existing solutions on the market have limitations; they’re either inaccessible to most people due to high cost and complexity, or they are not accurately gathering the right information to deliver clinically valid insights. We need to manage this gap and find new approaches to solve our nation’s sleep problems. Beddr is doing just that.”

The Series A funding will support the commercial launch of the Beddr SleepTuner, as well as further development of the company’s integrated sleep approach. In the future, Beddr expects to offer seamless access to board-certified sleep physicians, personalized treatment options, and ongoing coaching and support to drive improved outcomes at lower costs.

“I’ve experienced the sleep medicine system first hand. Ultimately, it helped me, but it took a long time for me to find the best solution to my chronic sleep problems. We invested in Beddr because we believe sleep disorders are vastly under-diagnosed and under-treated, and that the Beddr system can make a real difference,” says Kiki Broe, partner at Three Leaf Ventures. “Beddr’s team is the perfect combination of seasoned leadership and repeat entrepreneurs from medical device companies like Shockwave Medical; consumer marketing expertise at Johnson and Johnson; and technology innovators from companies like Amazon and Mint.”
