eLi said, “I really believe GoHuman is the way of the future. A way to create communities and help individuals thrive. Just the name inspires a certain feeling of connection, and makes you want more. More connection in your personal and business relationships, more connection to the planet, more connection to your community. And luckily, GoHuman offers the portal to all that and more! I can’t wait to see where it goes Go – Human!”

Thanks for supporting our effort to empower small businesses everywhere! Best of luck to you.

A Video is Worth a Thousand Pictures. Did you know you could embed a Video Intro of yourself right on your GoHuman postings? It’s easy!

After logging in to your account tab, click on “My Video Intro – link to yours now” and paste in the embed code from YouTube, Vimeo, or any video site that supports this simple feature. Once you’ve pasted your code, click the “Embed My Video Intro” button and you’re done!

Your video will automatically appear on each of your postings under the “Video Intro” button, and it’s a great way for customers to “meet” you, which makes them more likely to hire you!

The most rewarding part of building GoHuman.com is meeting people who share our vision for economic sustainability and cultural expression. Being Latino, led by Lance Rios, is just such a group. We’ve met engaging people beyond those who shared videos and look forward to working with them in the future.

We had the pleasure of sponsoring a contest with Being Latino that asked their members to submit videos telling the world why they love Being Latino. The responses were inspiring and you can view the video that won a GoHuman Flip cam below, submitted by Ramon Ramirez.

The videos are in and you can view them all on the Being Latino blog. We’re really inspired by the results and the wonderful things everyone had to say about their heritage. Videos were submitted from Alaska to Costa Rica!

The video with the most views by 5PM EST on Friday, December 18, wins a GoHuman Flip Mino HD video camera!

We’re thrilled to team up with Being Latino to offer one of our GoHuman Flip cams to the winner of their video contest. Just watch the video below for all the info you need to enter. Good luck!

Vital Belevich of Granada Hills, CA, just picked up a Flip HD Video Camera for posting his business on GoHuman.com! Vital cares deeply about the quality of service he provides his customers, which keeps them coming back:

“Customers are more tech-savvy than ever before. Fittingly, they expect their service requests to be similarly adept with the latest tools and processes and they like to give a feedback for services they receive so that other potential customers can get an idea what to expect when they do their online shopping for services or goods.

“Reading reviews and feedbacks about goods and services gets more and more popular these days. Many people like to know what others can say about you.

“With GoHuman our company receives personal space on the web with tools to advertise our business and our customers receive the information about our services and share it with their friends and family. All necessary tools are there. We strive to provide excellent customer service and best work we do to keep our feedback and review ratios at the top.”

Well put! Thanks for everything you do for your customers and GoHuman.com.

Cary Zartman of Chicago, IL, is GoHuman.com Flip HD video camera winner #9!

He says, “Z Factory has been in business since 1997, operating out of the same home office and as part of the same local business community since its inception. Over the years, we’ve all watched how “buying locally” has become a staple in the food industry — but the same can be said for business as well. And while Chambers of Commerce and other networking groups can help to build strong local relationships, they still require an interaction which can be largely dependent upon the right people being in the right place at the right time.

“What GoHuman.com accomplishes is simple, but invaluable. Connecting people in a way that fully understands that our businesses aren’t always conducted from 9 to 5, and not always face-to-face. GoHuman.com makes it ridiculously easy to seek out the quality resources that you need, at whatever time that might be, AND with the benefit of knowing they are well-regarded in their industry. 

“It’s great to know that my home-based business is functioning within a larger community… that it’s functioning at times when I might not be (like before my morning coffee)… and that it continues to excel within a community of like-minded and successful businesses. ”

Thanks Cary, and we wish you continued success with your business!

We had a bit of a time delivering the good news to our 7th Flip HD video camera winner a couple of weeks ago, but persisted thanks to all the great help Sasha Veljic has given to GoHuman.com. Sasha had a lot to say about GoHuman, so I’ll just let him say it!

“When I was introduced to GoHuman.com, its values and vision attracted my attention and admiration.  Primarily it is the vision of a better marketplace that is helpful to small businesses.  More and more people are interconnecting through the Internet.  That gives a chance to everyone.  The fact that GoHuman is built from the bottom up, with no top elite wielding power and reveling in greed is the principle factor that drew me in.

“I live in an area that has been affected by conflicts resulting in tremendous economic catastrophe that has plagued our nation for almost 20 years and continues due to current corruption and lack of legal state.  Living in strained economic conditions with many limitations and lack of commodities freely enjoyed in the West lead me to the conclusion that Internet-based small business venture is the best opportunity for me and others.  Besides, among GoHuman founders there are individuals who never cheated me in our past business relations, so GoHuman is a continuation of honest, altruistic business ventures with proven true business people that I share the same vision with.

“Internet here is not cheap.  However, it is a window to the world.  GoHuman has the best possible potential to provide all participants with equality on the market place.  Each user is able to form a list (circle) of reliable co-workers that can be better coordinated across local areas and the entire world.

“I believe I have caught the vision of GoHuman since its very inception.  A good cause cannot have a bad effect.  GoHuman values are timeless and its success certain.  My vision is to be a part of a successful worldwide business movement that will also cause changes in East Europe.”

Thanks Sasha! Beautifully said.
