What would happen to your business if Facebook or Instagram went away? Many business owners rely on tech giants, which takes a lot of the power away from the business owner. What if there was a way for businesses to create their own platform where customers could subscribe, be able to interact with a niche community, and the business would get more visibility from ideal customers?
