Happy Friday, economic development friends!

See all of the recent jobs here. Post a job.

Today's issue is brought to you by Sitehunt, the fastest and easiest way to find and understand your sites and respond to RFIs.

Your next RFI doesn’t have to ruin your week.

Sitehunt is the first AI site selection software built for economic developers. It’s not a chatbot. It’s software that keeps working for you: finding and enriching your sites, generating leads, matching properties to projects, creating supporting materials, and preparing RFI responses in minutes.

I built Sitehunt because I’ve done this work. As Galveston County’s economic development director, I helped recruit the largest economic development project in Texas in 2019. And through the Econ Dev Show, I’ve personally talked with and learned from more than 500 economic development experts.

My team and I are your humans in the loop. We’re here to help you get the most out of Sitehunt and be ready when the next opportunity comes along.
