DENVER - ColoradoDesk -- Denver, CO Backed by Local, a community-first answer engine, today announced the launch of free, city-specific hubs across 15 communities in Colorado, Washington, and Oregon—marking a major step in its mission to help locals support locals.
In a market where small businesses often struggle for visibility while national chains dominate, Backed by Local offers a smarter, scalable alternative. Founded by 17-year marketing veteran Ric Gollhofer, the platform ranks real businesses based on proximity and neighbor reviews—ensuring that visibility is earned, not bought.
"Our model is built on five core pillars: visibility, community, economic support, scalability, and clarity," said Gollhofer. "We're not just another directory—we're an answer engine. We connect people with trusted local businesses quickly and meaningfully, while keeping dollars and attention inside the neighborhood."
