April 10, 2007 - The success of sites like Myspace.com, LinkedIn.com, and YouTube.com has established that there is enormous demand by web users for online communities. Many people are finding the existing communities to be too general and are looking for an online community that is more specific to their interests. That is why many are choosing to build their own. Bonnie Dillabough, CMO of Yaktivate.com, an online podcasting network, says, “We feel that online communities are a fabulous way to add interactivity to your website in a meaningful way.”
The Connection Center has developed a web based community product platform that enables companies, groups, non-profits, or faith-based organizations to provide their own online communities at a fraction of the cost of what it would cost them to build it themselves. These communities are customized to the personal preferences of the particular organization. This online solution helps companies build brand loyalty, strengthen the organization and member base, enhance existing site’s offerings, and can be an important source of revenue as well. The Connection Center provides the design, implementation, technical support, and hosting services for these online communities.
The Connection Center has built a custom online community for Yaktivate.com. Dillabough believes, “…it will provide great stickiness to our site, encouraging our listeners to return again and again. It is so easy to use and the features they have added to it are really exciting, allowing each member to create their own look and feel to their profile and truly interact with other listeners and all of our show hosts.”
Along with the online community solution, The Connection Center is a full Entrepreneurial Business Services Company specializing in helping Entrepreneurs implement visions, grow businesses and increase their bottom line through connections. The Connection Center’s services include anything from feasibility studies, business plans, marketing plans, operation plans, and next level strategies, to legal services. They specialize in assisting the entrepreneur and equipping them with the resources to make their business succeed.
