A man loses his wedding ring with the inscription May 4, 1957 on the beach in Miami. A family' seventh month old yellow labrador retriever goes missing in Dayton, Ohio, A woman born 47 years ago in Dublin is searching for her birth mother.

What if there was one place, a single, user-friendly database to search for what or whom was lost? The globe just got a whole lot closer and more efficient.

There isn't a day that we don't log onto Facebook or Twitter or Craigslist and see a picture of a lost item that was found. Lost pet pictures are plastered all over social media. There are hundreds of sites devoted to finding one's loved ones separated by birth or adoption. What if people didn't need to search hundreds of sites. What if there was one website that made the process simple? 

We are ready to bring this site to the world and pretty soon the world will be asking how they ever lived without it.

Finditfoundit.com is a global LOST & FOUND, the world's largest one-stop location for anything lost.

The site has three areas:

-lost stuff    (IPads, cameras with film, jewelry, etc.)

-lost pets    (**every two seconds, a family pet is lost or stolen)

 -long-lost people  (lost birth families, long-lost siblings, and more)

**-data obtained from the National Council of Pet Population Study and Policy and National Humane Society

How the Plan Transpired:

In the winter of 2012, my parents’ home was burglarized. Sadly, most all of my mom’s jewelry was taken. It wasn’t about the money, although some pieces were quite expensive. One of her rings was passed on for four generations. It was not worth much but it was the most cherished thing her father gave her. The reward she was ready to offer far exceeded the value of such a ring.

As I began to help my mom search for her things, I began to look online at local jewelry stores that resell, at ebay and craigslist. Surely there had to be a site or a database for such things.

I looked at various sites but they were so disorganized and poorly built that it would take hours to look at a few dozen listings. In most cases, I couldn't even get past the home page. 

Fast forward a few months and a neighborhood dog is missing. He was just adopted from a local shelter three days prior and had slipped out of the family’s back door. They believe he had run quite far. There must be one, popular and central site for missing dogs where this family could look? No there was not. 

Almost daily, I see a listing for a lost momento or lost pet on social media. Several times monthly I will see a person holding up a sign with information about their search for a birth parent or a long-lost love.

Everyone loses something at sometime and yet there is no single, central site where one can list their missing item.Yes, people can list the item on that small section of craigslist. Someone can post it to their Facebook wall and only about .00001 % of the area’s population will be reached. Many people lose many things and there should be a simpler way of finding it. 

What Drives People to The Site

-it is user friendly, people lose something, it is only a $1 to list their lost item and free of charge to list a found item

-$$$$ a reward system $$$$: people can offer a reward for their item and this gives finders an incentive to be honest and to list items (a user may lose a ring from her grandmother only worth $500 but it has great sentimental value so she offers a $1000 reward)

-after 90 days of being unclaimed, the item can a) go to auction where lister receives funds for the item; b) item can be donated to a charity...finders have yet another opportunity to win & cash in!

-good karma: there is a new awareness in the world to do the right thing and pay it forward...this notion is becoming ever popular... the business of karma and spirituality is a multi-million dollar business

How Site Generates Revenue

- it is a $1.00 to list a LOST item and freeto list a found item (a finder can list with the hopes that they will receive an award and it will payoff for them or that they will make the $ in an auction if never claimed)

- if an item is reunited, the site gets either a flat fee or a portion of the reward. For rewards less than $100, the site gets 7% of the reward. For rewards $100 and over, the site gets a flat 5% of the reward.

- advertising on the site

Why Us? Why Now?:

We have enlisted some of the most creative minds and best website builders in the country. We have more plans about preventing abuse and scammers, more ideas about getting corporations, hotels, taxi companies, airports, and others on board. We are bursting with ideas, and we are excited to share more details of this venture with you...

Websites are only as good as their efficiency. Efficiency comes from keeping it simple. A site that is easy to use, used by many, and does its job is efficient. We are that site, and soon to be a household name.  

This site is the virtual telephone pole and bulletin board listing of yester-year. This is the ebay of lost stuff (except much more user friendly).
