ABOUT FOXMAN GROUP

David B. Cooper, also known as Foxman or DBCooper, has been providing innovative technology solutions to businesses for over four decades. With a strong background in computer sciences and accounting, he is known for his ability to use technology that is both audit-able, repeat-able, and scale-able, leading to successful outcomes.


Cooper's main focus is on the live entertainment industry, where he has developed software for various stakeholders such as touring music acts, artist managers, concert promoters, talent agents, and venues. His software integrates essential functions like accounting, scheduling, merchandising, and ticket sales. Cooper has also worked with major corporations like LiveNation, Ticketmaster, ideaLAB!, International Speedway Corporation (NASCAR), and Redbox, developing innovative software solutions for a range of industries.


As an architect, Cooper builds technical solutions that are both big and fast, with a focus on harvesting the value of fan information. He believes that fan information is crucial in creating demand by offering similar products and services to these identified fans. Cooper has had significant successes in this area, such as the launch of a ticketing solution for International Speedway Corporation during the Daytona 500, the world's largest live event in 2001. Additionally, he helped Pearl Jam set a world record for the fastest sellout in 1995, selling 48,000 tickets in just 21 minutes. These events provided opportunities to collect fan information and leverage it to create demand through targeted offers.


Recently, Cooper worked as a consultant for Redbox Automated Retail, LLC, specifically for its division TICKETS.Redbox.com. This division is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Outerwall, the parent company of Redbox.
