Knoxify is a blog camp led by Brandon Clarke and Casey Peters. We have been straining our brains with business ideas, young professional events, insurance policies, projects and more. We could go on but that would be boring now wouldn’t it? In a nutshell, we’re trying to better your life, our life and the communities in which we live in. We shoot our “Do Good” flares from Knoxville, TN.

What We’ve Done

Instaknox: Think of it as Twitter on steroids with a Knoxville, TN focus. It’s an exchange of quick messages to let the community know what you’re up to.

Ntrospect: We’ll spill the beans about this little venture later, ok?

Young Professionals of Knoxville: The plan came together in 2006 when we set out to connect today’s leaders with tomorrow’s. Almost 2 years, 80 members and over 100 volunteer hours later we’re still making our footprint on Knoxville, TN even larger. And we’ve got the t-shirts to prove it.

What They’re Saying

“You can’t help but be impressed with the excellent work coming from the guys over at Knoxify. I wish I had spent my college years doing something constructive, as opposed to destructive!” - Byron Chesney

“The two have dedicated themselves to blogging all things social, political, and cultural in and about Knoxville - interviewing county commissioners, reporting on local events, and offering advice on topics from where to get the best coffee to the best insurance deals. A recent post pays homage to their top ten favorite things about Knoxville - and readers followed up with top ten lists of their own. From past leadership to entertainment, dining, and the surrounding area, for an insider’s uncensored take on what makes Knoxville great, I can offer no better source.” - Jeremy Floyd

It appears that there is an upcoming blogfest.

"...I was shocked and appalled to see that a grove of trees, including a 100-plus year-old Ginkgo tree, have been ripped limb by limb from our honored and revered Hill at the expense of UT’s new Electrical Engineering building."

"In NASCAR, they call that door-banging racin'. And it is. See how the battle goes in your market."

"36.2 Million women participate in the blogosphere weekly"

"...downtown’s newfound popularity also means that there are more people for the panhandlers to target."

Suzy Trotta has the rundown on Knoxville homes hovering around the 7-figure mark.
