BUILDING VALUE
AROUND CREATIVE
CONNECTION.
Creative people already need each other. We're building a place where those connections can become more useful, more accessible and more meaningful.
Community, discovery, profiles, opportunities, events, media and business participation — part of a connected creative ecosystem.
EXPLORE THE OPPORTUNITYCREATIVE WORK IS COLLABORATIVE.
THE TOOLS ARE FRAGMENTED.
CREATIVE
ECOSYSTEM.
Creative professionals currently spread their activity across social networks, messaging platforms, portfolio sites, casting services, event platforms, job boards and specialist communities.
The Joined is designed to bring more of that activity together around one shared identity: creative participation.
The opportunity is not simply another social feed. It is a platform where professional networking, community, discovery, collaboration and useful services can reinforce one another.
MANY DISCIPLINES.
ONE CONNECTED NETWORK.
FILM & VIDEO
Crew, actors, producers, directors, editors, writers and production companies already depend on one another.
MUSIC
Artists, venues, producers, promoters and collaborators create overlapping professional networks.
PERFORMANCE
Theatre, dance and live performance rely on local communities and project-based collaboration.
ART & DESIGN
Visual creatives benefit from discovery, portfolios, commissions, communities and events.
WRITING
Writers, publishers, filmmakers and performance communities often overlap in useful ways.
CROSSOVER
The strongest connections may happen when one creative discipline discovers another.
FREE COMMUNITY.
MULTIPLE REVENUE PATHS.
Accessible participation with optional paid and commercial layers.
Free membership reduces friction and supports community growth. Joined+ and Company+ provide optional paid membership paths.
Additional potential revenue streams include advertising, partnerships, events and future specialist services. These are development opportunities, not claims of current revenue or guaranteed returns.
USEFULNESS BUILDS
LASTING CONNECTIONS.
ISN’T A
FEATURE.IT'S THE FOUNDATION.
The Joined only works if people genuinely want to participate.
Growth cannot be treated as a simple numbers game. A smaller network where members actually connect, collaborate and return can offer more value than a large audience that barely interacts.
Our aim is for usefulness to encourage retention, and for stronger relationships to support lasting network effects.
START LOCAL.
LEARN FAST. EXPAND CAREFULLY.
BRISTOL
Build and test the community within a city with a strong creative ecosystem and real-world connections.
UK CREATIVE HUBS
Expand into other cities and regions with distinct local creative communities.
INTERNATIONAL
Grow outward while retaining local identity, rather than flattening everything into one generic network.
LISTEN & ITERATE
Let real member behaviour inform improvements and expansion decisions.
COMMUNITY FIRST.
TOOLS CAN FOLLOW.
The initial platform creates the network. Future tools could help that network do more.
There is potential to develop specialist features around production, collaboration, events, media and creative workflows.
These are future possibilities, subject to development and demand, rather than a promise that every feature is available today.
GROWTH MATTERS.
SO DOES WHAT WE GROW.
PATIENT
Community platforms need time to establish trust, habits and useful network effects.
STRATEGIC
Expertise, partnerships and industry connections can matter as much as capital.
ALIGNED
Investment should strengthen the creative community, not pull the platform away from it.
AMBITIOUS
The long-term vision goes beyond a small local directory.
