Keeping it Free - Keeping it Easy - Keeping it Local


Keeping it Free Keeping it Easy Keeping it Local

Let’s face it – we all have needs, both personal and professional. 

In my experience I have learned not to mix them.  One or the other will suffer creating an imbalance in both of these essential areas. 

That’s one reason I created ReciProty - a new website, where personal and business needs are connected to the appropriate resources that will help and improve them both.
ReciProty is designed to:
ReciProty goes even further by extricating local resources from the impossible-to-sift-through resources on the World Wide Web and routes them to the applicable wall on ReciProty:

By organizing information and resources into separate walls for personal and business needs, finding what you or your customers are searching for just got easier and much less time consuming.

Since all the resources on ReciProty are posted by local businesses and  individuals, members are networking, shopping, sharing resources and events - all within their local communities, creating a positive impact on the social and economic growth of the communities in which they live.  

Local businesses owners know their community members and cater to their specific tastes and needs maintaining the community’s unique character and flavor. That’s what makes ReciProty’s innovative contribution to the web so necessary for communities filled with detached national chains that often steal away dollars that would otherwise be spent in and benefit the local economy.

ReciProty provides the way for productive and professional mutual exchange of local information, products, and services.

Right now, ReciProty’s members are giving and receiving support in thousands of personal & professional categories, networking with other members who are promoting and displaying their services or organizations and even benefitting from free web exposure. 

Once you join you can link to your own website. No a website?  Simply add your contact information on your ReciProty profile. By having a profile on ReciProty, you are already on a website with over 500 members and counting, at no cost to you! 

Take a few minutes now and create your business or personal profile on ReciProty. It’s local and it’s FREE!

Are We Overwhelmed Yet?


Are We Overwhelmed Yet?
Time…
It’s our most precious resource - a resource that all of us could use more of but seem to have the least of. I think everyone can relate to the hectic daily cycle that saps our time and energy:
We live in a fast paced society and it doesn’t show any sign of slowing - nor does your life.  And I won’t even bring up life’s little “surprises” it often throws in our path. It’s no wonder we often feel overwhelmed! 
Whether you’re in need or just feeling overwhelmed  we could all use some relief, strength, support, companionship; preferably from someone we can trust and who can relate to our common needs.
Friends and family don’t always have the time or resources to spare.  Some of us can turn to our church or community for assistance, but often there is still not enough support or the kind of unique support we seek.
That’s why there’s – ReciProty
ReciProty’s goal is to be your “go-to” site for relief and resources by bringing back that old-fashioned personal and business support system which seems to be falling through the cracks in the massive information highway. We are daily harnessing the bountiful resources on that crowded highway and directing all the local resources right to your desk top.
How do we do it?
Members.
Right now, ReciProty’s members are doing it by…
ReciProty is providing the tools and the means to create a strong and vibrant support system.  But it’s the members who create the synergy by which the support system grows flourishes and continues. The more members ReciProty has the more resources and support ReciProty can offer. And, hopefully…the fewer overwhelmed people there will be.
Ready to stop feeling overwhelmed? Join ReciProty today - it’s time, it’s free, it’s ReciProty.

What Makes ReciProty so Different?


There is no doubt that social media marketing is “where it’s at” and “it’s here to stay”.
But do you know that when you post a promotion for your business on social networking forums it usually does not reach all of your fans?

Why?

You know from experience that your social network wall fills up rather quickly with hundreds of friends posting everyday – sometimes several times a day! How long have you had to scroll down your feed before finding something that you actually wanted to read?

That’s where ReciProty is different

Many of us have heard the term that “personal is personal” and “business is business”. On ReciProty posts are separated and related to resourceful personal and business information. The Neighborhood and Business sections both include walls on which to post your resources, comments, requests, and information. There is also an Everyday Discount section for daily deals or special offers and a Member Directory section for maximum local exposure.

Members can connect to you on “the big four”—

“My Neighborhood”
“Networking Members” 
“Everyday Discounts” 
“Member Directory”

This way, members can go directly to the section for which they seek information or resources as opposed to everything being posted onto one wall increasing the possibility of it being overlooked. Members can comment, ask questions, message; call, link, and/or even meet locally.

That’s Not All –
Not only can you share your resources with your entire ReciProty local community, you can also share them on your social networking sites.

Now THAT’S a Lot of Exposure! 

Here’s another thing that sets ReciProty apart—

Once you are a member of your ReciProty local community – you have the opportunity to:

  • Advertise your business for free 
  • Generate leads 
  • Increase your sales and 
  • Connect to local customers 
ReciProty provides a place where members do not have to scramble and search endlessly for the local resources and support they need. Members can support one another, their local businesses, and non-profit organizations online or locally, 24/7.

 It’s neighbor helping neighbor –even better than the good ol’ days.

Opportunities are Endless –

You can help yourself by helping others and by spreading ReciProty’s purpose. Once ReciProty builds in your local area, you can connect to people in minutes that have accumulated years of experience in their specialized fields. We are all in need now and then. Just think of the time that you will be able to save by connecting instantly to trusted relationships, reliable referrals, and local resources.

That’s what’s happening on ReciProty &

THAT’S what makes us different.

ReciProty  is your online local community! Join today and get connected. It’s Free!

A New Place to Shop


Noisy Crowded Mall vs. Quiet Corner Shop

Wouldn’t you agree that the web has become such a massive storehouse of information that it is becoming more and more challenging to know how to search, let alone where to search, for the specific information you seek.
When you type in a keyword for what you are searching for the search engines bring up literally millions of pages. For instance I just typed in the keywords “appliance repair” and Google gave me a mere 33,300,000 results to search through…

…that’s going to take a while!

I’m sure you agree that the “E-Mall” is becoming more and more crowded. Wouldn’t it be less time consuming and more convenient to simply visit a small quiet corner “E-Shop” to find exactly what you need from sources you can trust? 


ReciProty is such a place.


ReciProty is a website that was designed to downsize an oversized web so members can recapture the “pre-net” era when seeking information, help, advice and referrals, was as quick and simple as asking a trusted neighbor. 




ReciProty.com is your “e-neighborhood” on the worldwide web where neighbors are sharing information, lending support, giving referrals, and businesses are networking, growing, and offering special deals and discounts on their products or services, 24/7/365.

By sharing and offering their own wares and expertise; announcing events, arranging online or offline meet ups to pursue personal or professional networking, ReciProty’s members are utilizing modern technology to bring back old-fashioned community support.

So if you’re looking for a quicker user-friendly alternative to shopping the vast “e-mall” whenever you need to find something - stop on by ReciProty
We’ll even say…
 Hello.
