I think the product is good, the message is wrong.
If your message takes a 4 minute video, it's too complicated to acquire customers. That 4 minute video should be part of a help document, not an explanation.
Also, you should focus on project management, not on organizational paradigms. While I applaud your aims for achieving a better impact in the world, I think it's a bit over-the-top: it's a project management tool, you're not re-inventing the global economy through democracy - or, in reality, you can't change the world economy and it's org structure, but you can influence it via a project management tool. Focus your copy on differentiating yourself from other products, but don't get all high-and-mighty about how someone should run their company.
If I were starting a business, I would instantly be turned off if I was told that in order to use your product, I had to give a copywriter equal say to product I created and built from day 1.
- adelegb 16y agoWhile it certainly sounds scary to relinquish control, what has been fascinating is to find how much people are hesitant to overstep. In our open democratic model to date we have not been burned by giving the "copywriter equal say". In fact it has made our work richer to open it up to many voices helping us out.
