FamePick vs The Neighborly App

FamePick, a venture backed Silicon Valley startup, is a data-driven marketplace with 1000+ real celebrities to help create genuine celebrity content on social media.

Our platform provides an industry-transforming alternative to the complicated and expensive celebrity endorsement world. We do this by streamlining the celebrity sourcing and selection process for brands, empowering them to search for and create marketing experiences that speak to their target audiences. Brands are granted access to the social profiles of real celebrities, and run their own influential sponsored ad campaigns from said profiles - this allows marketers to directly target all of a celebrity’s fans with authentic content that outperforms regular ads across major social media channels.

A local social network where users can buy and sell goods or services from people in their neighbourhoods

Neighborly connects local people with each other, helping everyone get more out of - and give more back to - their communities and neighbourhoods.

It was launched in March 2020, originally to help our local community in East London keep each other informed about COVID-19 related issues.

The app's ease of use meant it quickly developed a broader purpose - with users posting about all kinds of things, like the best dog walking spots, where to get the best coffee, and if anyone could recommend a tradesperson to carry out a particular task or service.

It was this last point that made us think - what if we could let tradespeople create profiles, take bookings, and then receive payment and reviews directly through the app? So we developed the Neighborly marketplace for just that.
