We partner with community leaders to increase community engagement, commerce, and tourism.
It Starts With Innovative Technology
Yodel's unique technology brings local events, news, announcements, and tourism information to one app for your entire community.
After gaining approvals, Yodel scrapes Facebook, websites, newsletters, and digital calendars to maximize the amount of local information available on the app.
One App For Everything Local
Events & Activities
Not only is everything in one spot, but Yodel notifies community members of upcoming activities and events that match their interests.
-
School and kids' events
-
Local live music and entertainment
-
Sporting events
-
Nonprofit events
-
Volunteer opportunities
-
And more...
No more searching dozens of websites, scrolling Facebook and missing events.
Local News & Updates
Local updates and news are constantly being updated and presented on community members' feeds based on their unique interests.
Studies show that when people know what’s happening locally, they buy locally.
Public Announcements
Now you can easily communicate with everyone in the community about road closures, snow and water alerts, public safety notices and anything else you need to convey.
Your messages are prioritized and pushed to virtually everyone in the community to keep everyone safe and informed.
Visitor Information
Most visitor sites only show the big events and venues.
Whether it's food truck day or Aunt Sandy is coming to town for a week, Yodel gets local residents and visitors alike connected with something they'll enjoy.
Value of community: Community is where we enjoy our family and friends. It’s where our kids grow up. It’s where we volunteer. And, it’s the place where lifelong connections are made.
Community leaders bring value: Community leaders actively seek ways to improve our communities by building parks, infrastructure, and local programs. They are dedicated to attracting new businesses, creating energy and new opportunities for everyone.
Forces are pulling people away from community: Unfortunately, today there are many forces pulling people away from their communities: social media, online shopping, and the decline in local news sources.
Yodel brings people back to their community: Yodel is all about bringing people together, providing a platform for people to find the richness within their own community.
Local engagement means local dollars: When people engage in local activities, they spend money locally, they make connections, and they volunteer, all of which are the makings of a great community.
Help your community thrive: If, through Yodel, you can keep dollars and activities local, your community will thrive and your leadership will be recognized by community members, businesses, and organizations within the community.
