Herbert J. Cohen’s Summary
I successfully co-founded 800-THE-PROS (largest video/entertainment marketing/management corporation in the US), Pennsylvania Private Investors Group (largest group of angel, venture, corporate and institutional investors in the region), Temple University's Center for the Advancement and Study of Entrepreneurship and QuiqMeds (helping physicians prescribe and dispense medicine in their offices).
I'm focused on my next “equity” build, however my very special Friday-morning (10-11am) hobby is hosting the #1 show (ExecutiveLeaders) on the #1 business/news station in this market (WWDB-AM 860). Each week I interview 4 CEOs of locally owned-and-operated $5m-$100 million corporations - previous guests include the "C" execs of AIG, Brandywine Hospital, Chester County, Deloitte Touche, Endo Pharmaceuticals, Franklin Publishers, Global Fit, Healthcare Advocates, Interdigital, K’Nex, Lee Hecht Harrison, NFL Films, Oki Data, Penn Mutual, Philadelphia Stock Exchange, Point Roll, QVC, Sovereign Bank, TastyKake, Unisys, Villanova University and WHYY.
My rolodex keeps building, and I enjoy making arrangements / arrange introductions between my appropriate “C” level guests and sponsors when it creates a win/win/win. Plus, sponsors receive significant exposure to our listening audience of 40,000-60,000 listeners.
And I’m open to “creative” arrangements!

StartUp CEO
WebNationVideo
(Privately Held; 11-50 employees; Information Technology and Services industry)
April 2007 — Present (2 years 8 months)
Websites need short videos to engage viewers and clearly explain new product and service introductions, attract team members, provide testimonial endorsements of their products and services, demonstrate how to use their products, explain the benefits of their services, etc. etc.
We'll script, shoot and edit your video at our cost - for a limited time only - in order to keep building our "demo portfolio" toward the national launch.
We've assembled a fine, core, close-knit team of executives, investors, scriptwriters, shooters and editors - and need your marketing, sales, management, scriptwriting, shooting and/or editing energy driving this substantial opportunity forward.
Please contact me asap .... and thank you! -
CoFounder
QuiqMeds
(Privately Held; 11-50 employees; Pharmaceuticals industry)
July 2004 — October 2006 (2 years 4 months)
Thirty percent of prescriptions are never filled, and a significant percentage of physicians are earning less income than several years ago. I co-founded QuiqMeds which helps patients receive their medication in the physicians office without the inconvenience of going to the pharmacy, and helps physicians earn supplemental income. I heard the rough idea, pulled together the multi-disciplinary core team of co-founders and working partners.
