New Direction for MavenMKE plus Auto Maven

Hi everyone — Uno here.

I wanted to share a quick update about MavenMKE / Auto Maven and the direction we’re moving in. Many of you already know I’ve been quietly building a community space for auto professionals and small businesses. I’ve had this Ghost newsletter for a while, but now it finally has a purpose.

We’re shifting this newsletter into a community hub.
A place where we highlight the people, shops, vendors, and small businesses that make our city strong.

Here’s what you can expect moving forward:

• Business Spotlights
Short features on local shops, creators, vendors, and small businesses.

• Extra Marketing Space
A place where members can share events, promotions, new services, or important updates.

• Community Announcements
Giveaways, collaborations, volunteer opportunities, and city‑wide happenings.

• Auto Maven Updates
Connections, partnerships, and resources for the auto industry.

• Member Resources (Coming Soon)
Tools, guides, and shared knowledge from the community.

I’m keeping everything simple while we grow.
Slack will be our conversation space.
Ghost will be our announcement + spotlight space.

If you’re part of my trusted network, I’d love your input as I shape the membership options. Nothing is launching yet — I’m taking my time — but I want your thoughts on what would feel helpful, fair, and community‑focused.

Thank you for being here.
Thank you for your patience.
And thank you for helping build something real.

— Uno
