FastCall411 Adds to Advisory Board

8/28/07 – Hollywood-based FastCall411, a startup offering local search options based on a pay-per-call model for consumers, has named former Citysearch CEO Briggs Ferguson and Momentum Venture Management’s Stuart MacFarlane to its advisory board.  The company’s services are designed to connect consumers with local businesses via telephone.  It will officially unveil its product next month at the DEMOfall show.

During his tenure at Citysearch, Ferguson oversaw IAC/InterActiveCorp’s national and international city guide business, and launched the Internet’s first local pay-for-performance model.  Prior to joining Citysearch, he served as executive vice president, marketing and product strategy, for Launch Media, which was later acquired by Yahoo!.

MacFarlane, managing director of Momentum Venture Management, brings more than 10 years of consumer Internet and new media experience to the company, including his role as CEO of Insider Pages.  He also served as vice president of new ventures at Idealab, where he advised portfolio companies in business development, fundraising and new product development.

FastCall411 was founded earlier this year.
