Be a Winner WithContxt!
Think of WithContxt as a calendar with a group text that allows you and other invitees to communicate before, during and after the event.
We'll work in more fun "game-ification" later, but, in the mean time, we're going to make sure that the main functionality works well (and it currently doesn't, so, if you'd like to wait to download it until we sound the all clear, sign up for updates here).
As the Founder of WithContxt, I'm tired of seeing good people get sucked into never-ending rhetorical battles on Facebook and Twitter within their echo chamber or with CNN-parroting liberals, without any positive action taking place. We have to get out from behind screens and into communities. Arguing in 140 characters so we feel smart or clever isn't the answer to "How do we take our country back from the socialists?" Going door-to-door, hosting educational events, uniting to effect change, replacing bad legislators with good Constitution-loving, gun-toting Americans, and generally talking to people one-on-one IS the answer and WithContxt is a tool to facilitate that activity.

Why Do Organizers Use WithContxt to Water the Tree of Liberty?
Maintain PrivacyWe won't track your whereabouts. We won't listen to your conversations. We won't use an algorithm to figure out what was in your breakfast so we can put adds for prunes or cereal in your face. We're just going to provide a great service without violating your trust. When the App asks for access to your pictures, well, that's because we want you to upload the pictures you choose. We don't want your pictures that are out of context because, frankly, we have no use for them and it takes up valuable hard drive space.

Become InformedDid you know that, on a weekly basis in Dallas, organizations put on about a dozen different informative and interactive meetings and events? We're going to help you find the events that inspire and inform you best.

Engage Your CommunityShare your views with like-minded people without having to worry about ideologically-based censorship.

Remove AnxietyDo you remember the first time you worked up the courage to attend a meeting?
By engaging people in conversation prior to any meeting, a grassroots organizer can be profoundly more effective at getting people over that hurdle of attending the first meeting. WithContxt provides a platform for conversations between invitees and organizers. |
Save the memoriesEvent Organizer - "Everyone share your pictures on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Myspace, Tumblr, AOL, GeoCities... using the #WWDRHSHDHSHW!"
Ugh. That's infuriating. Most of our Facebook friends don't care when we go to an Entrepreneur networking event. The people who care are those who are in the room and/or weren't able to make it. Why not share that content in ONE place where the event organizers AND the attendees can get the greatest use out of them? Then, if you want, you can share content outside of that Contxt to other platforms. Actually, Facebook, Google, Apple, and Android are all trying to automate this sort of thing for you, too. Clearly, we're on to something. |
Cast of Characters

SeabiscuitSock Thief ExtraordinaireSeabiscuit is the logo because he attracts positive attention from the right kind of people.
Back when the Founder was a Grassroots Political Coordinator for Ron Paul, Debra Medina, and other liberty-minded Republicans, he needed a way to get the attention of the people who needed to know about his candidates. "Hey you!" may work for some people, but not as much for large bald men. Now that he has an amazingly handsome lab, he takes pictures of him all the time and realizes that good people love dogs. Strangers want to pet Seabiscuit and tell their stories about yellow labs. If Jarrod had a cause about which to inform people, Seabiscuit would be the perfect opener. So, who better to grab your attention than a handsome (completely insane) yellow lab? Answer: no one. |

Jarrod AtkinsonFounder"First" generated the framework and marketing plan for WithContxt over nearly two decades of studying how people allocate their scarce resources, beginning during undergraduate and graduate study in Economics at Hampden-Sydney College and Southern Methodist University, respectively. He then went on to devote himself to political activism and entrepreneurship, having started four businesses over the last fifteen years. Remarkably creative, he struggles with focus, as well as accepting that Perfect is the Enemy of the Good.
The Chairman of the Dallas County Republican Party's Community Outreach Committee (fancy title meaning "he works for free for the Party organizing all of the volunteers"), Jarrod represented Congressional District 30 at the 2016 Republican National Convention and has served the Republican Party and Clubs in numerous positions, including Senate District Convention Chairman, Precinct Chairman, and Chairman of the TYRF PAC Board. |
