Success Story – Infopreneur Raises $112 Million
Posted by Ken Kurtz in Success Biographies on April 16th, 2009
Rosseta Stone – known for its instructional CDs teaching people to speak different languages – sold 6.25 million shares of its stock today, April 16, 2009, raising $112.5 million.
Shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol: RST.
Shares were up 44% today according to Reuters. The Initial Public Offering was priced at $18.00 but prices opened around $25.00 per share.
Not bad for a company going public in one of the worst bear markes in history.
Another success story and example of the huge potential of selling information products.
Based in Arlington, Virginia., the company was founded in 1991 and is run by 36 year old Tom P.H. Adams. Adams is Rosetta’s President, CEO, and Director.
According to SEC filings, Mr. Adams owns 506,000 shares of common stock and another 350,000 shares subject to stock options, making him a wealthy, infopreneur millionaire.
Rosetta was purchased from its founders in 2006 by private equity firms Norwest Equity Partners and ABS Capital Partners.

Successbios.com provides inspiration, education and motivation to people seeking financial success
. It features success biographies, interviews and articles about ordinary people who went from broke, near broke, and even deep in debt to financial success in 3-5 years and in many cases, much less.
If you want financial success in your life, you can have it.
Millions of people from extremely diverse backgrounds have it. They didn’t have rich parents, great education or even any great skills. Yet, they took action and created a lifestyle that most people dream about.
They have beautiful houses and cars. They travel whenever they want to exotic places. They eat where and what that want at fine restaurants.
They have flexibility and freedom in their schedules. Many are generous givers.
Financial success isn’t available to just a few. It’s been achieved by millions upon millions.
In the United States alone, there are an estimated 5 million millionaires.
To give you an idea how many people that is, consider an example….
…If you took the University of Phoenix arena in Arizona which hosted the 2009 Super Bowl, and filled every one of the 80,000 seats with a millionaire just from the United States, you’d need to fill over 65 stadiums.
The number is almost unfathomable.
That’s how many people are enjoying a life of financial prosperity right now in our own country.
The best part about financial success is that unlike golf, tennis or other professional sports, it doesn’t have to take years and years.
To be a great athlete, it can take 10 years. But we will highlight people who began making $10,000 or $20,000 or even $100,000 a month in less than a year. Some within months of starting.
We don’t cover just the phenomenal stories like the founders of Google or Myspace, or Facebook, because those aren’t typical.
We focus on the ordinary person. People no different from anyone else except that they followed a plan and achieved tremendous success in a short time.
Our goal is to compress the time it takes you to achieve financial succes. We want our readers to get there as quickly as possible. Because it is achievable.
By following the paths others have created, you can get there even faster than they did.
You don’t have to be a pioneer. You don’t have to re-invent the wheel.
You can copy what worked and avoid the mistakes. Success leaves clues.
So many try to go it alone and figure it all out themselves. But most of the time that just leads to frustration, disappointment and permanent failure.
The key is to get started and to take action.
Enjoy!
