web site, communication and media development

This pack is intended for someone who already has a group in mind. They would be opening the folder (not for the first time) in front of the group and then beginning to explain / convince. It should reassure, look professional and provide all the content needed. Eventually, groups will be charged with mentoring new groups and their feedback will generate this pack.

Top priority means that the functionality will be included in the next promotion.

Advice on how to talk with printing companies and get receipt books printed in bulk.

9carrots Flyers, posters and stuff to market the scheme to the community. Upload and browse media ideas here for others to use and discuss.

This section is about the experience we give someone who is arriving to the website for the first time and may not understand the system. It talks about use cases, motivations, audiences and then suggests communication, copy, graphics to explain, excite and fullfil the needs of these use cases.

User testing is paramount for this discussion to examine, objectively, how we are doing. Web standards, good interface design, web use behavioral research are some of the tools that are important for this section.

Shoppers can send their receipt codes in by text message. Currently Annesley processes these (!), but we have set up SMS servers before and will do this if the service proves to be popular. There are some conversation decisions:

"What's your 9carrots username? If you don't have one, reply with your email address and we'll create you one"

They will automatically receive an email with "username is <username>, password is <password>"

"All done, thanks! Give one of your receipts to someone else to re-register and spread the idea. Their purchases will count towards your points. You have also earned the beginner badge :)"

"<code> was not found..."

"Assign 903 to The Station"

"Assigned, thanks :)"
