Our local reporters work within your community to inform and inspire you on a daily basis across various local topics. Whether it be local news, events, live music, pop-up shops, food trucks, farmers markets, local fashion tips, fitness activities, or anything else going on in your city, with Whim, you are the first to know.
On Whim, you can see what everyone in your city is talking about and receive real-time updates of what’s happening nearby. You will be informed on local topics happening right now and be inspired to discover everything that your city has to offer, curated by our local reporters. You can learn, discover, and truly become a part of the community by joining the conversation happening on Whim and staying up to date with what your neighbors are talking about.
In order to provide you with the most relevant reports of what’s happening in your city, we only invite those with a proven passion and audience. We start out by hand-picking socially-engaged local personalities who are experts in their field of news, lifestyle, or food & beverage. Once we’ve built out a small team of a few local experts, we encourage our reporters to invite others in their network to join us on Whim and help filter and curate the flow of information and inspiration through their own eyes, experiences, and perspectives. The top five Whim reporters in each city are included in a creator fund every month and awarded a percentage according to their metrics and engagement from Whim users. So the more amazing and engaging content you produce, the more you are seen by our users, and the more you get paid at the end of the month! Interested? You can apply to become a reporter here.
