Did you know that 391 small businesses in Sisters are connected via Alignable? Heck I didn’t know there were even 391 businesses in all of Sisters. Alignable is the international network for small and local entrepreneurs, as compared to the much larger and better known LinkedIn, which caters to a broader range of members, individual and corporate.
Thanks to Alignable, I just learned of a fascinating, below-the-radar business in town — Velocity Sports Equipment — who manufacture skydiving rigs. Who knew? Then there’s Slip Not Northwest, a Sisters business catering to businesses concerned about slip-and-fall liability due to hard-surface floors or bathtub/shower enclosures. Not exactly your everyday, Main Street businesses.
