The Three Options to Launch Nearby Nearby

• Option 1 - Fallback Plan: A Stepping Stone to Our Vision If our initial funds are modest, we have a WordPress website ready as our starting point. It's a humble beginning, with challenges like map functionality tweaks and plugin conflicts needing expert resolution. There are limitations—we'd be launching in a single county within one state, with the vision to grow as resources allow. This phase requires $75-150K, a sum of this our founder, Rhonda, can provide. Yet, we're hopeful to channel these funds into the next phases for a more robust launch.
• Option 2 - Scaled-Down Yet Solid Foundations: Building for the Future With a more substantial budget, we can break free from WordPress constraints and opt for a headless CMS solution, engaging BairesDev's sister company and specialized freelancers to construct a sturdy, scalable website. It won't have all our desired features initially, but it'll be a solid foundation to grow from. We'll focus on perfecting the basics before expanding. 
• Option 3 - Ready to Expand: Full Speed Ahead Achieving our full goal of $880K means we can go the distance. We'll have the means to develop Nearby Nearby precisely as envisioned, with the infrastructure to scale rapidly and a dedicated team ensuring smooth sailing from development to launch. This phase is where our dreams and your support synchronize to create a platform ready to take on the world from day one.

Your Role in Our Phases Your backing decides our starting line. Whether it's the initial step with our WordPress site, building the foundation with a headless CMS, or diving into the full vision—your support at any level brings Nearby Nearby closer to reality. Your investment in our crowdfunding today is more than funds; it's a vote for how boldly we step into tomorrow.

Nearby Nearby: A Timeline of Innovation

2016: The Spark of an Idea Relocating to a new state, Rhonda, our Founder & CEO, encountered a common frustration: the challenge of discovering local events and parks. Often finding out about activities too late, she envisioned a solution. Thus, Chatham County Events was born - a simple yet revolutionary website aimed at unearthing and sharing local gems.

2019: A Community Hub Emerges Rhonda’s website rapidly evolved into an indispensable resource for nearly 2 million unique visitors. It transformed from a personal project into a vital community platform, extending beyond events to include local businesses and parks, fostering deeper community engagement.

2020-2021: Expanding the Vision The onset of COVID-19 posed unexpected challenges, but Rhonda’s determination didn’t waver. Meeting developer Barry Costa marked a pivotal moment. Together, they envisioned taking the local platform global and initiated the development of Nearby Nearby, focusing on a unique 'One Search' feature.

2022-2023: Building the Dream After filing a Provisional Patent, Rhonda and Barry partnered with BairesDev to start creating a platform with global ambitions. Their vision was clear: to connect people with their communities in ways never before possible.

2024: Realizing the Vision As we step into 2024, we are on the cusp of bringing Nearby Nearby to life. With an ambitious fundraising target of $880,000 by April 8th, we invite you to join us on this journey to redefine community engagement and exploration.

Our aim is to initiate a beta launch covering a select area by the end of 2024. This strategic approach will allow us to thoroughly iron out any kinks, ensuring that everything operates smoothly before we proceed with a larger scale launch and the release of a dedicated app.
