Serving people through technology.
I'm Michael C. Call, an entrepreneur and software engineer from Utah. My mission is simple: use quality software and websites to help people build a better world, starting with the local businesses that hold our communities together.

An entrepreneur at heart.
I earned my finance degree from BYU's Marriott School of Business, then worked in risk and financial advisory at Deloitte, where I learned to solve business problems with data.
A full-stack coding bootcamp in Provo sparked a new passion. For the past decade I've been building software that solves real business problems, and I've worked alongside business owners across Utah: contractors, dentists, roofers, financial planners, and marketers.
The pattern was always the same. The owner was excellent at the work, but the website was out of date, the Google listing was half finished, and a national chain was outranking them in their own town. That's a visibility problem, not a quality problem, and it's one technology can solve.
“I spent years watching incredible local businesses struggle to get their message out. Not because they lacked quality, but because they lacked the platform. Utah Local Legends is my way of changing that.”

When local businesses thrive, Utah thrives.
Finding a trustworthy local business had turned into guesswork, and great owners had no way to stand out. So I built Utah Local Legends: a directory where every business is met in person before it's listed, and where the technology big companies take for granted is handed to small businesses for free. I believe in “givers gain”: serve people first, and the rest follows.
What I believe
- Trust is earned before a listing goes live, not after a complaint.
- A business is a person with a story, not a logo in a grid.
- Money spent locally should stay local.
- Visibility should not depend on a marketing budget.
- Technology is the great equalizer when it is put in the right hands.
