Idea: let companies/brands create accounts and commit to implementing features. Give them report cards based on the number of features they commit to and actually implement. Maybe include pages for individual products, and grade them individually. This could be a really useful tool to find out which product lines are actually getting love from makers.
- frankdenbow 14y agoCame here to say this. Also if you could use the requests to put pressure on companies to make specific changes, I'd assume they would be receptive to you helping them get feedback.
- hollandale 14y ago@smurph, definitely something I'd love to implement if brands really find the feedback useful. Here's a question: Do you think this tool would be most useful to brands--as a consumer research tool? Or to 3rd-party producers who are interested in seeing what market exists for new products/feature requests?
- smurph 14y agoI think your first heavy users will need to be people who are putting brand new products on the market and have no idea how they are going to get feedback. People who have been making iterations for years will have a bunch of work in the past that they won't get 'credit' for, so they might not be fans of starting with a blank slate. Maybe if you had a way to import or track feature requests from other feedback sites, that would get you more users. It's worth noting that you are competing with other bug tracking / feedback web sites, and there are some established players there.
