Ultra Local Social Networking
Posted by Matt Rajkowski on November 25, 2009, 8:55 AM EST
Concursive has put together a model community for neighborhoods, small businesses, politicians, and for those that live, work, or visit the area... we call it Connect757 to emphasize the ultra localness of the 757 area code: Hampton Roads Virginia.
We've come up with a way to tell a story that may be useful for other markets and we're leveraging the latest features in ConcourseConnect 2.0.
Some key areas of the implementation:
- Neighborhoods - An easy way for people to associate, learn and collaborate where they live
- Businesses - A web presence for small businesses that gives them Micro-blogging, Blogs, Wikis, and CRM Tools
- Organizations - Similar to Businesses and promotes important local organizations
- Groups - An area in which people can form and participate around their own topics of interest
- People - A simple directory for finding others
- Events - A way to learn and subscribe to local events in the community
- Clusters - an idea hub where we emphasize Innovation, Lifestyle, Managing, Marketing, and more.
- Voices - spotlighting local politicians and celebrities and following their agendas
If you would like more information about building your own community, contact us and we'll help you out.
Are there other examples of ultra local communities that you'd like to share? Please leave your comments.
