Find. Be Found. Get Business.
For the technical elite who are looking to take full advantage of sales opportunities, Local Digerati is a website that helps you find trusted locals you can team up with on projects, and take on more business. Unlike using search engines and directories, Local Digerati allows you to connect with the highest quality, most trusted people close to you.
Find
While you have to be invited to become a member, and the main point of the site is for freelancers and small biz peeps to connect with each other, anyone can search. Simply type in the help you need and where you’re looking to find it.
Be Found
Each Digerati has a profile that lists their contact information, description, specialty, and links to their site and social media profiles. You can also view all of their ratings. Ratings are fun, since a Digerati cannot decide whether or not to show a rating. They are there. Transparency is a key ideal of the Local Digerati.
Get Business
If you’re a Digerati looking to team up, you can contact your fellows by clicking the big “Contact” button on their profile and sending them an internal message, or if you’re so inclined, give them a call. If you’re looking for a Digerati (and you aren’t one), contact them using the contact information they’ve provided.
Gotta Give Props
I had the great privilege of being interviewed by Steve Spalding, the founder of How to Split an Atom, for his podcast. After the interview, Steve and I were talking about coworking amongst other things, and he told me he had trouble finding local people (in Gainesville) that he could bring onto projects. He said it would be great to have a site that would help him with this. Local Digerati is the result of that conversation.
