I'm confused by this. On the one hand it says:
> We'll randomly remind by email and SMS.
Then it says:
> These intelligent reminders come to you
> at the right times.
And there doesn't appear to be any explnation.
- omarish 16y agoSure. So in my previous iterations, I was thinking of taking user input and understanding when people needed goal reminders, but I've found out that sending random reminders throughout the day works out even better. The theory behind the site is that by consistently remembering your goals, you'll achieve them. So "the right times" ends up being randomly throughout the day when you're probably not thinking about them. I like this solution because it's really simple, quite random, and notifies the user at unexpected times (only between 8am and 9pm in the user's timezone, though. Mr. Goal minds his manners). I wasn't sure how to explain it on the front page, would you have any suggestions?
- rprasad 16y agoThe best time for a reminder is when you're least expecting it.
- omarish 16y agoThose are the exact words I'm looking for. Can I use this on the front page?
- rprasad 16y agoSure, go right ahead. However, you may want to run a trademark search with the USPTO to make sure some company hasn't already trademarked it for the reminders market. Trademarks are context-specific, so if it hasn't been trademarked for this context, I would file for one.
