Erica Rankin — Co-Founder

➕ Follow along while I build my second startup Doozi publicly... The next Tiktok for travel. If you want to skip the bio below, here's the spark notes: I’m the co-founder of doozi; a new video-first platform where people discover restaurants, hotels, and experiences through authentic videos from real people. Because people don't Google places anymore, they scroll. We’re not just building a tech platform; we’re building a creator-powered marketing ecosystem for the hospitality industry. With 4,000+ creators already in our network, we connect businesses with creators who visit your location and produce authentic video content. That content gets shared with their audiences, featured on doozi, and delivered to your team to use in your own marketing. Early partners also receive priority placement on doozi: the next generation of travel discovery. - I’m Erica; a creator, entrepreneur, and digital nomad helping people break the rules they were taught to follow… and build lives that actually feel like theirs. Over the past 4 years, I’ve shared honest content that’s generated nearly 1 billion impressions, built a community of over 300,000, and sparked conversations around entrepreneurship, failure, and personal development. In 2020, I met my now co-founder Gillian on Bumble BFF (true story). Our friendship & love for travel took us all over the world. We both lost our businesses last year, and this brought us closer. We bonded over loss, reinvention, and the fire to build something better. Which led us to co-founding Doozi: the next big social media app for travellers, creators, and hospitality businesses. We're building in public & want to make real impact; finally giving travel creators a platform that's theirs, and supporting small businesses who maybe can't afford to pay to be in a 'top 10' list. This isn’t just a business. It’s a movement. My mission is to inspire others to go after the things they want, even if it seems impossible or out of reach. Nothing is off limits - you just have to have the audacity to ask, and the guts to chase. 💌 My content is about starting before you’re ready, overcoming adversity, and doing whatever it takes to make sh!t happen. Entrepreneurship is a ✨doozi✨ With love, Erica 📬 Sponsorships + collabs: hello@ericarankin.com ➕ Follow me everywhere @acceptingerica @doozigirls We're doing everything we can to build Doozi, and if you want to help two scrappy startup founders build their dreams: erica@doozi.app Every intro helps.
