Hi IH 👋
I really value the way IH and other places have a ‘makerhood’ and really community spirit. More & more makers are beginning to ship in the open, so that others can learn & be inspired. I was always rooting through my twitter feed trying to find updates and after one too many times I decided to curate a list of all open makers.
Its a really simple website built upon the awesome carrd.co and using Airtable as data store.
If you are an open maker, then you can add your details at https://digisquire.com/#makers 🎉🎉. Over time I’ll end up creating a List on Twitter where they can be followed.
We also have a section dedicated to maker deals. Maker deals are deals, discounts, or just plain useful tools to be used to help other makers save money. Nothing too fancy, just things that others will find useful.
If you are interested in sharing you story in AMA format and having it featured on the 12startups publication please let me know. You can use the #AMAopenmaker on twitter.
Any feedback you have will be most welcome?
What do I hope to achieve?
Well I have a couple of aspirations:
- Become the de-facto source of truth for listing open makers.
- Build upon my own brand by growing my following on twitter for @real12startups and @willpower_iam
- Making connections with other makers and growing my network
- Providing inspiration for other makers who need that extra push
Thanks for being awesome IHers 👊👊
