RAP Index Receives Investment from Crest Capital Ventures

The RAP Index, Inc., a software service designed to identify who can best advocate decision-makers on an organization’s behalf, announced today that it secured an investment from Crest Capital Ventures. The multi-year funding allows the RAP Index to aggressively expand its sales and marketing efforts nationwide, add additional software programmers to continually develop new features, and execute its strategy to make RAP Index 3.0 the must-have software solution for advocacy.

“In public affairs, every group knows what their message is, but often they have no idea who the best person might be to deliver that message. We find their very best messengers,” said Chip Felkel, RAP Index CEO. “RAP 3.0 is an effective, cutting-edge software service that uncovers key relationships which are invaluable for affecting change. By identifying, quantifying and qualifying key relationships with influential policy makers, an organization can make a bigger impact in the world of advocacy. In short, we give our clients,” said Felkel, “a competitive advantage over all the voices clamoring to be heard.”

“The RAP Index is a unique and valuable solution giving companies and organizations the ability to discover and leverage previously unknown personal relationships,” said Jason Woods, President of Crest Capital Ventures. “We are excited to offer multi-year financial support to the RAP Index. This software has tremendous growth potential as they change, for the better, the way advocacy works.”
