This article from Rolling Stone mentions Wake Up Now as being Vemma's largest competitor. It's a passing mention, so I don't think it's worth adding by itself, but it may be of interest, and it's worth keeping an eye on. Grayfell (talk) 02:17, 1 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Founder discrepancy

edit

The lead says the company was founded by Troy Muhlestein, yet the "History" section says the founder was John Elvis. Neither statement includes a citation, so it's difficult to know if either is factual.

As a side note, NPR's "This American Life" ran a story exposing WakeUpNow just prior to the company's shutdown. I'm wondering if that had anything to do with the company closing, and if it is worth including in this article. Just a thought.Kerdooskis (talk) 20:34, 1 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Looks like the NPR story is already listed as a source. My bad. As for the founder, all sources point to Troy Muhlestsin as the founder. John Elvis, from what I can tell, is not a real person. I am changing the "History" section to match the lead (with added source).Kerdooskis (talk) 22:59, 15 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
