Why I Launched Boosted by People – A Smarter Way for Brands to Get Seen
As the founder of Dan About Thailand, I’ve spent years helping businesses connect with audiences in meaningful ways. But I started to see a pattern — traditional advertising is becoming increasingly ignored. People scroll past ads, block popups, and tune out. What still cuts through? Recommendations from real people.
That’s why I created Boosted by People — a platform that gives businesses and brands a more authentic, effective way to get in front of customers. Instead of relying solely on costly ads or influencers with inflated followings, businesses can now have their content shared by everyday social users, page owners, influencers, and even local businesses — people who already have the trust of their networks.
This isn’t about flashy influencer campaigns. It’s about real influence — the kind that happens in WhatsApp chats, shared posts, and casual online conversations. It’s where trust lives. Boosted by People gets your content into those spaces where traditional ads just can’t go.
We’re starting in Thailand, where I’ve built strong expat and local communities, but we have our sights set on the UK later this year. Because the truth is: everyone has influence. Whether you have 200 followers or 20,000, you can now earn by sharing content that fits your style and audience.
It’s time for a new era of community-driven marketing. One where businesses collaborate with real people to drive real impact.
Already winning plaudits!
