About
The short story of 
theIndustryDirect | Portal
We think about all kinds of shit 💩
- work & workers
- business (small business is our bias, but all business is the potential scope)
- consumers... and makers
- markets (not so much the market)
- economics, economies, the economy
- industries & industry
- skills, educations, & jobs
- design & development
- products & services
- tech & technology
- the Now → the Future (informed by the past and best-guesses)
- ethics: Being Good + Doing Good
With these thoughts, we do our best to
- listen to ________
- think with ________
- advocate for ________
- serve/create value for ________
Workers
Work for yourself; work for the man; work for your family.
We are all workers.
We all work.
Entrepreneurs
Solopreneurs, freelancers, startups who inherently take on risks to make money (and other outcomes)
Small Businesses
Actual small businesses — like 1-to-50-people small business
Consumers
As we are all consumers — even the makers consume
Communities
Communities of people bound by logistics or other demographics are affected by what we do — our own and that of others
Ourselves
We are all of the above.
Our work & expression
We think, draft, prototype, and develop in public.
