Local businesses are the lifeblood of all communities, bringing people together, building community identity and contributing to safer environments for youth and families.
Many small business owners expect to close their doors in 2024, making community support more crucial than ever.
Playsee, a community-driven social media platform, encourages users to explore their local surroundings and share their favorite local spots with their neighbors.
Positive effect of shopping locally
Most people already understand the positive impact of shopping local on both small businesses and society as a whole.
Playsee gives you the opportunity to act based on that knowledge and connect with your local area in a meaningful way.
By prioritizing local content, Playsee connects you with the hidden gems and businesses in your community.
This makes it easier than ever to find and support the stores, restaurants and services you love.
“They not only provide essential goods and services, but also create jobs, character and a sense of belonging. Yet big box stores often steal the limelight.
“By going local, you not only get personal service and unique products, but also strengthen the social structure around you.
“Playsee is helping to empower Britons to rediscover the magic of ‘local’ and build a more vibrant future, together.”
Going beyond social media
Playsee highlights everyday moments of people, places and events happening in the community where users engage with local content and share experiences from their daily lives.
Users share neighborhood happenings through the authentic view and voice of locals.
Whether it’s discovering local gems, sharing random happenings or chatting with locals for honest recommendations, Playsee is all about using social media to create genuine experiences and interactions in the real world – bringing people closer together.
Veronica continued: “Playsee goes beyond social media and connects you to the heart of your community.
“Supporting local businesses is not only good for them, it’s important for a thriving neighborhood.
“Playsee empowers you to shop local and build a stronger community together.”
Bring accessibility to everything locally
By bringing the focus back to your local community, Playsee is redefining how we use and engage with social media.
Playsee has had over 50 million downloads globally and is free and available to download on the Apple App Store or Google Play Store on Android and iOS systems.
