3. Productivity
Roll out new commodities as often as possible.
Both frontend & backend teams MUST collaborate to roll out
new updates, patches, and releases etc.
Every 9-18 months roll out a new product.
Innovation:
Innovation can MAKE or BREAK the company.
It's no longer Location... Location... Location. Its
Innovation... Innovation... Innovation.
4. Productivity (Cont'd)
Employee Benefits:
Implement the 20% rule. All employees are given 20% of
the week to be productive on there own time while in the
office. This means they can brainstorm, play video games,
code, whatever there hearts desire. This in turn drives more
motivation in achieving greatness for the company as well
as promotes personal project completion.
Offer a bonus every month to honor all the most productive
workers in the company. Whether it be brainstorming,
coding, market researching etc. Employee's will be more
productive and will be more eager to be productive if they
know a prize is awaiting them at the end of the month.
5. Expansion
Facebook is geared towards mainstream usage. In order to
become as powerful as the powerhouse Facebook we need
to start out as a mainstream society social network.
We need to open city-by-city. This way we can monitor
growth. It will in-turn ease the process of growing. For
example: it's faster to pass out flyers in a city than the world,
right? Apply this to our expansion schematics.
6. Theory 1.0
Whatever goes up must come down. That's a basic law of
Physics right? Well the same can be said about Facebook.
The sooner we can get production rolling, the sooner we will be
ready to take first place when Facebook goes under.
We need to start while Facebook is at its all time high. Pretty
soon its nothing but downhill for Facebook. And once Facebook
has fallen, everybody will know of Prudal and begin to use it.
Or, if we grow in popularity Facebook may loose its mojo. For
example: just as Facebook stole MySpace's thunder. We too
could very well steal Facebook's thunder.
7. Theory 1.1
It's more of ease to grow per-city rather than per-country.
We will have agents in the designated regions campaigning
while implementing our advertising tactics. Soon enough, if
all goes as planned; cities, states, even countries will hear
about Prudal before we even get agents to them. This will
be done through word of mouth.
We will buy extremely short website URL's such as you.me
to advertise rather than to use thiswebsitenameisverylong.
com. This is easier for that guy on the street to remember,
that is if we are to use shortened URL's.
8. Revenue
Lets face it allot of our users won't feel the need to spend
allot of money for the power of modularity. So we empower
the use of credits. The end user can watch videos or listen
to commercials embedded in there dashboard to gain more
credits. They can also buy credit cards in the stores.
We will have group pages where they can advertise on the
site. Just as facebook has little text ads on the sidebar of
every page, we too will empower this methodology.
There are plenty of solutions we can roll out for revenue.
The possibilities are limitless. Our marketing team work
along side the software logic team in coming up with
solutions to turning a profit
9. Misc. Facts
Facebook has succeeded by offering a product to the
general populous. If we wish to prevail in the industry we too
need to offer a product to mainstream society.
This is your problem Rick, you invest all your time and
money in companies that don't offer products to mainstream
America.
11. Prudal - The Social Network
Everything is modulated. In other words everything is
customizable, interchangeable, and theme-able
Use Keywords such as: PersonaPlus (Themes), Plugins,
Modules, Addon's, Packages, Premiums, and of course
widgets.
12. Dashboard
The Wall:
Your wall will consist of a notebook like tool.
In resemblance to http://www.google.com/notebook. This
will gear the site more towards a blogging look and feel
rather then a micro-blogging platform which Facebook tends
to favor with its word count restrictions.
The cPanel
Your cPanel will always remain intact no matter what may
be loaded on the Wall. For example: Lets say you have a
module that allows you to run a chat room with many of your
friends. Well, all you need to do is add it as a widget to your
cPanel and as you navigate through facebook, the widget
will always appear on your page. Without the need of
reloading the page
13. Flavors!
Just as there are complexities to the different types of ice
cream. Our site will empower complexities or as we call
it Flavors.
When the user signs up, he will be presented with an
extremely simple layout. He can then watch videos and
learn through tutorials and so forth as to how to completely
customize his Prudal site.
He will also have the ability to roll back to previous versions
of his works. In case he messes up or his account gets too
cluttered with modules.
15. My Approach
What we need to do, is get Venture Capitalism to invest in
our company. Which shouldn't be too hard. Read the
following blog post for more information on how I'm gonna
approach this manner: http://www.techi.com/2010/06/9-
steps-to-creating-a-social-networking-site-that-kills-
facebook/
I've been pondering on this website for at least 2 years. I've
got it all figured out Ricky. I've even got the layout's of our
building's which we are gonna use.
