The Genesis of Go!

The concept for GoRAPIDS.com and the GoWisconsin Network was developed by Patrick Goodness, CEO of The Goodness Company, a Wisconsin Rapids-based advertising, marketing, graphic design and public relations agency. While community-based web sites are not a novel concept, GoRAPIDS.com represents a new generation of community-based micro sites that promises to change the way people use the internet for local shopping and community connections.  


GoRAPIDS.com will provide users with a comprehensive business database of all local Wisconsin Rapids businesses, local, state and national news, local weather, positive and insightful community blogs contributed by community leaders, Wisconsin Rapids job board, real estate listings, daily games and puzzles, parenting section, community events calendar, and valuable local Wisconsin Rapids coupons and special business deals and discounts. What makes GoRAPIDS.com unique is that it is the only site of its kind that also offers incredible daily, weekly, monthly and annual prize giveaways..while offering absolutely free membership for users. Additionally, GoRAPIDS.com will be supported by $100,000 in annual marketing and advertising…television, radio, billboards, banners and signage, promotional items and event sponsorship…creating significant interest with the goal of driving the people of Wisconsin Rapids to make GoRAPIDS.com…their #1 community web site.    
 
At GoRAPIDS.com, it’s more than business as usual. Our goal is to provide promotional support for Wisconsin Rapids’ non-profit and community organizations, by showcasing these critical organizations and the immeasurable benefits they provide for the people of Wisconsin Rapids. We believe in the promise of collaboration and are investing in the premise that businesses and citizens alike will give freely of their time, energies and resources if they are inspired to action. GoRAPIDS.com will be a conduit, connecting the community of Wisconsin Rapids to the essential non-profit and community organizations that serve so many.
 
While Google and Yahoo represent the power of macro global scale search engines, GoRAPIDS.com represents the future of local community based web site marketing. We are committed to a world-class quality site, managed by a team of consummate professionals, for the benefit of Wisconsin Rapids and our proactive, innovative business community.
 
GoRAPIDS.com is an investment in the future of Wisconsin Rapids and underscores our commitment to creating a stronger, visionary local business community through the creation and development of high quality, responsive and effective local internet-based media.
