San Diego-based ShowUhow, which creates and hosts online video instruction guides for retail and manufacturing partners, says today it has raised $3 million in Series A funding from Syncom Venture Partners, an investment firm in Silver Springs, MD, that specializes in media, mobile technologies, and web-based service companies. ShowUhow videos show consumers how to assemble barbecues, media centers, and other consumer products for Costco, BestBuy, and others. The San Diego company adds that former Price Club/Costco co-founder Giles Bateman, who also is a former chairman of CompUSA, has joined its board.
