Join Devon, Jon and David as they discuss the origin story of the Trade Hounds, why it is so important for tradespeople to have a digital home where they can come together, and what can be done to address the labor shortage and lack of skilled workers needed to keep society growing and thriving.People use the terms 'blue-collar' or 'white-collar' in casual conversation to describe various professions. David grew up around the trades and saw firsthand how they were being underserved when he once heard his uncle, a painter, yell: "What the is LinkedIn?" Much of the conversation revolves around fluff and corporate topics that are irrelevant to the life of a tradesperson. There is no question that social media platforms like LinkedIn are not very well liked by tradespeople, and for good reason. Like a Blue Collar version of LinkedIn, it is a place where the trades can connect, share photos and videos, and have conversations on how to improve themselves and their craft. Trade Hounds is built for the hardworking skilled tradespeople building our country and is America's largest professional app for construction.
