Community Economic Development & Tourism.

Opportunity begins with what a community already has.

Every community possesses its own combination of people, businesses, skills, places, experiences, organizations, ideas and stories. Within that mix are opportunities to strengthen community life, support local economies, welcome visitors, attract new participants and build greater resilience.

“The challenge is not always creating something new. Often, it is recognizing what already exists, connecting it more effectively and helping others see its potential.”

Turning Potential
Into Participation


Identifying an opportunity is only the beginning. It must also be understood, communicated and made easier for people to act upon.

FROM IDEA TO ACTION

What Participation can look like…

  • Residents
    Helping residents discover local business & services.
  • Visitors
    Helping visitors move beyond familiar destinations.
  • Entrepreneurs
    Connecting entrepreneurs with useful resources.
  • Organizations
    Giving an organization a better way to promote events.
  • Communities
    Helping communities move from having assets & ideas to creating meaningful participation around them.

Relationships That Shaped Our Work

Over the past 25 years, we’ve had the privilege of working with organizations that have shaped our business, our experience and the communities we serve.

Where Our Experience Comes Together


Each project has deepened our understanding of the opportunities communities possess, the practical barriers they encounter and the importance of building solutions around the people who must ultimately use and sustain them.


Community & Regional Development

Asset identification, regional collaboration, community participation, place-based initiatives and opportunity development.


Tourism & Visitor Experience

Destination websites, attractions, experiences, itineraries, events and tools that support visitor planning and in-market discovery.


Business & Investment Attraction

Community positioning, business ecosystems, workforce narratives and the communication of opportunities to prospective residents, entrepreneurs and investors.


Support Local

Business discovery, merchant storytelling, community campaigns, gift guides and initiatives that encourage more local awareness and spending.


Directories, Mapping & Events

Structured information that makes businesses, services, destinations, facilities, experiences and events easier to find and explore.


Digital Strategy & Innovation

Custom applications, shared data, AI, system integrations and new approaches to evolving community and visitor needs.

One Platform. Many Possibilities.

Our ShowMe platform grew from real-world community and tourism needs.

One flexible foundation.

Bring digital directories, interactive mapping, events, itineraries, local business promotion and regional discovery together in one adaptable platform.

One place to manage. Endless ways to share.

Manage a listing or event once, then share it across directories, visitor experiences, itineraries, community calendars, tourism websites and regional networks.

One connected community resource.

Turn disconnected local information into a resource that can be organized for different audiences and adapted as local priorities evolve.

What opportunity do you see?


Every community starts from a different place.

Perhaps the need is to strengthen what already exists. To bring disconnected initiatives together. To help more people discover what the community offers. Or to explore an opportunity that has not yet taken shape.

That is where the conversation begins.
