There's somehow a contradiction between the service you're offering and the name of the service. Postcard BOT feels impersonal, cold and automated, while you associate a postcard with something warm, handwritten, personal. There's a risk that your target market (postcard lovers) might get turned off by the name (bot).
- traviswingo 10y agoThanks for the tip :). I honestly didn't take that into consideration when naming the project. I'll see what I can do and if it's worth the extra effort :).
- ctpide 10y agoI tend to kindly disagree - while what you say is true for the people who love to write and receive postcards - this service is perfect for lazy people like me. The real postcard lovers will still want to buy the real thing and hand-write the message on there and probably wouldn't consider this kind of service either way.
- icc97 10y agoPostcards without handwriting are just email. I'm not even a postcard lover, I send maybe one a year, but the one I will send is going to be personal. All the personality and expressiveness that you give to a written postcard is lost once you use a font. Even a really really nice one.
- bbcbasic 10y ago"The real postcard lovers will still want to buy the real thing" Sounds like you are in that group.
