The Idea We’re Researching is Pretty Simple.

What happens when young adults gather a few friends and unplug* from social media TOGETHER for a week.

*We get that completely “unplugging” might be impossible for you  (Snapchat streaks! or work/personal obligations) The value of significant reduction in social media time even if it isn’t 100% is huge. (Texts and calls aren’t considered social media either)

Why We’re Running This Pilot Study

LookUp.live is a non-profit startup to inspire young adults to find balance between their screen and non-screen lives and engage others in the process. While some find it easy to balance, others find that balance is harder to achieve, which is why many of us can’t do it alone. We need our friends.

After many conversations with teens, college students and recent grads, one of the biggest barriers to taking a break from social media is “fear of missing out” on stuff. FOMO is HUGE! We get it.

So, we’re wondering if you take a break with friends–does that make it easier?

By participating in this pilot study you’ll help us find out if “finding balance” is helped when a group of friends take that challenge together.

We Can’t Do This Without You!

Your participation in this small pilot study (around 100 young adults or so in July) is a HUGE help! If you and your friends’ collective experiences are positive, we’ll roll the LookUp Challenge program out nationally in the Fall.

You are a HUGE part of the startup team of the LookUp Challenge!

Thanks for being part of the LookUp StartUp Founders Team. No startup is complete without a little merch—When the pilot week is complete, we’ll send a t shirt and a swag bag your way to say thank you for participating!
