B2B Partnership and Business Development Platform

a startup idea shared by Trent Emanuel on 03/04/2014

B2B companies who are looking new ways to bring in new business feel that they have to use facebook and twitter for the sake of it because if they didn’t, it makes them feel dated or detached from social media reality. B2b companies are trapped into putting in an effort when there isn’t much added value to their business. It’s neither the proper or most viable platform for them because success and revenue doesn’t come from likes or talking to themselves on twitter.<br><br>A study showed that 45% of buyers use search to determine which vendors to initiate contact with. I would like to create a hyperlocal platform that facilitates connecting buyers and sellers through search, with criteria including industry, location, company size, etc. <br><br>What if there was a way companies could use hyperlocal search to find a specific type of company, in a specific industry, in a specific location, with a specific number of employees. Then they could see what other companies they&apos;ve worked with, who rated them, what conferences and events they will attend, and gain direct access to the decision makers...<br>
