In season one of Atlanta Born & Brand, we talked to three entrepreneurs building tech companies in and around the Atlanta area. Today, we bring back excerpts from each of their stories to provide a glimpse of what it's like to build a tech platform in the city.
First, Fred McGill from Simple Showing was our guest on episode 3 of the show. His company is shaking up the real estate space by making buyers less dependent on real estate agents and more able to drive the home buying process. For more information on Simple Showing, visit SimpleShowing.com.
Next up is Jody Stephenson from SitterTree. For a lot of people, college is the time where they set the stage for their entire career. Jody was doing just that, but she didn’t necessarily know it yet. On this episode Jody tells us how she built a babysitting business in her college dorm room, and nearly 20 years later has impacted the lives of countless college students and young families all over Atlanta.

Last for today is Luke Beard from Exposure.co. The company’s website describes exposure as the simple way to create and share your unique photo stories. But as you’ll learn today, while certainly unique, Luke’s path to Atlanta was anything but simple.
To start telling your visual stories in an incredibly beautiful manner, check out exposure.co and do what Luke did … start building. Follow the company on social media @exposure, and keep an eye on Luke’s latest photography journey on his instagram, @lukesbeard or www.luke.exposure.co
