This works for our neighbors.

We run a computer shop in Alice, Texas. We kept running into the same problem: finding a real pro in the Coastal Bend is harder than it should be.

So instead of selling software or tools, we built a place. A place where the person who needs a plumber can find one. Where a contractor can show up and get found. Where a kid looking for work can see what's hiring. We're doing the work ourselves so we understand what works and what doesn't.

It's slower than selling a product. But we learn faster. And the Bend gets something that actually solves the problem instead of selling a solution to it.
