Tacoma’s Konnects.com has launched the first professional networking platform that enables any person or organization in the world to earn revenue by creating their own professional online social network on the Konnects platform.
Konnects is a cross between Ning and Linkedin. Anyone can setup their own Konnects powered community in minutes and generate revenue through subscriptions as well as posting their own Google ads. Users have complete control over their online community with branding and communication tools as well as detailed analytical reports on community and user activity.
“We are very excited about this launch. There isn’t a tool like Konnects in the market today and we feel there is a big need to give traditional organizations a place to stay connected online,” said Jim Crabbe, Konnects CEO.
Prior to Konnects, organizations had to upload their member lists to other online professional networking sites, resulting in the organization giving up their membership base to an open ocean of online professionals. With Konnects, organizations can keep their membership connected and now have a way to generate additional revenue in the process. Organizations can even set whether their online community is open to the world or private to only their membership base.
Konnects already has relationships with newspapers, chambers of commerce, special interest groups and non profits that have created communities on the Konnects platform.
