About US / What Social Alerts Does


SocialAlerts ("SA") combines the event announcements of local nightclubs, concert venues, food spots, bars/happy hours, and social events (including the latest launches and grand openings) in real-time / as they happen, straight from the newest and most popular venues in a city into one feed, keeping you alerted to the latest happenings effortlessly:

  • No more subscribing to multiple sources
  • No more wondering whats new near you
  • No more guessing whats going on at your your favorite venues
  • No more wondering what there is to do in your travel destination

Social Alerts keeps up with after 5 info for you so you don't have to, allowing you to see it all in one place.

And if you're traveling? We can show you whats hot and where you need to be when you get there!


History, Current Adoption & Buy-In


So far, Social Alerts has launched 19 areas with 31 more set to launch with in the next few weeks, plus the launch of EDMAlerts, our subject based feed tracking EDM DJs Performances and Events world wide. Social Alerts has gained more than 88k followers in just under 5 months and 33k since our last update on 2016/03/23!

The city list includes:


Social Alerts has over 100 cites to launch with a projected 500k followers by the end of the year. It takes a lot to meet that goal and hence, we're asking YOU to help us reach it!

Celebrity Acceptance:
Follows, Likes and Retweets

Social Alerts has the honor of being followed / liked / reposted / retweeted by multiple internationally recognized celebs and venues:








That business trip to a city that you've never been to? We can tell you whats goin on there. On a Tuesday. Or any other day of the week.

Festival announcements near you or nationwide? We got you covered.


Our Virtual Team


Our virtual team consists of:

  • Programmers (for our eventual app)
  • Event Management Staff to gather the data and interface with the venues
  • Promoters from virtually every major city nationwide
  • DJs and Performers
  • Bar, Restaurant and Nightlife venue staff from all over the nation.

And this campaign will enable the means to pull it all together with your help.


Implementation


hrough a small round sponsored by some friends and family, we've established our central hubs in California, Florida, Las Vegas and Washington DC and launched our initial social media platforms to prove the concept in terms of follower adoption and revenue. Our goal is to launch a new city approximately every other day with said local content via additional hardware, software and services.


Campaign Allocation

(Note: While our initial campaign was for $37,000, as listed above, we've received $6,000 in offline donations so far... hence the reduced request of $31,000)
