Title
Angie Cash - a fundraising program from Angie's List
Description
Angie Hicks brings more than 10 years of experience as a consumer advocate and entrepreneur to Angie's List. After she and her friends grew tired of lousy service from the companies and contractors they hired, the idea for Angie's List was born. Angie knew their frustrations were not unique, so in 1995, she set out door-to-door in Columbus, OH, recruiting members and collecting reports from friends and neighbors. It's with this information that she took the “ask your neighbor” concept to a higher level, using the detailed feedback from members as the basis for providing up-to-date, reliable, unbiased ratings on local service providers to consumers.
After the first year, with more than 1,000 members throughout Columbus, Angie had laid the foundation for what would become one of the fastest growing companies in the U.S. Over these last 10 years, she has helped lead an expansion from a 100 square foot office to an operation that now covers 26 major cities, serves more than 185,000 consumers and has been placed for three years in a row among the Inc. 500 by Inc. magazine, a list of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the nation. All the while, Angie's keen sense of business and common sense have helped Angie's List remain a locally focused, grassroots service that members say they wouldn't live without. Over the years, consumers have come to trust Angie to ask the questions they want answered, as well as help raise the level of service they can expect from local businesses and contractors.
A working mother herself, Angie works to ensure Angie's List continues to evolve to meet the ever-changing, dynamic needs of today's families and homeowners. She knows that like herself, Angie's List members are challenged each day to fit work, family and at-home time into already busy schedules. With this in mind, Angie's List provides the maximum amount of information and resources to its members, as efficiently and quickly as possible. With the help of Angie's List, consumers can quickly find the service provider they need to make an emergency repair to their car, complete a major home improvement project, or even plan a wedding or take the best care of their pet.
