Simple, effective and well executed! nice one (I actually can think of uses for this!!)
I especially like your time chooser method - that is really natural (though susceptable to shock/shake). The rest of the sign up form seemed a little oddly laid out (with the right column)
When you create an event it doesnt take you to the "invite people" page but to the admin overview, which then takes several clicks to get to the event page possibly directing to the events page might be better (with obvious links to the overview/management)?
Also the next step is obviously promoting an event and it is not clear how to do this. Some sort of popup when your redirected to the event page after setup that says "look here are some options --->" might help.
Have you got any plans for printable tickets? Or for the ability of the admin to reserve tickets themselves (say if they sell over the phone or via another medium but still allowing them to track "sales" in one place). Any plans to create a "template" event for reuse (if you hold weekly events say).
What about the email tickets - is it possible to add the ability to customise them? (for example I know some guys who would, if using you, like the ID number printed super large for easy checking).
What about ticket id's? Is it possible to customise these or at least track them in the CSV file you provide - so that they can be checked?
I understand some of that might not apply for your target market - just throwing random thoughts out there. All in all I think its really cool!
Any use?
(whats your revenue model like and what are your target audience? Do you think you can get enough events to make it profitable (actually I can see it working for club events organisers (we host some sites for them so I know the market in our area is like) as a ticker mechanism. <-- if you dont want to answer s'cool, just interested)
- matclayton 17y agoThanks really great feedback, much appreciated. 1. The Time Picker isn't mine, its a open source JQuery Plugin http://haineault.com/media/jquery/ui-timepickr/page/ http://haineault.com/media/jquery/ui-timepickr/page/ 2. We are working on the Invite Friends/Promote code still, which is why there is a kink in the workflow at the moment, by the time its done, it will all make much more sense. 3. Printable Tickets are planned, actually investigating using moo.com api or something similar, but won't be doing these in the near future. 4. Reserved Tickets are due out next 5. Templates, in due course. 6. No plans to customize the Email at the moment, but we are certainly considering a white label solution which would allow this. 7. Ticket id's aren't customisable, but adding them to the CSV would make a lot of sense, will certainly do that. I wouldn't be doing it if I didn't think we could make this profitable, hope that is enough of an answer :) Thanks for the great feedback much to ponder, and will certainly adjust the feature list accordingly. Mat
- ErrantX 17y agowicked stuff (and thanks for the link to the JQuery plugin). One comment I would have is that I would look into the white label approach a bit more. There could be a niche for brandable ticket sales sites - you know like if you run a club night a way to brand the whole interface with their theme and so forth. We host a few club nights websites and I know something like that would interest them (because current solutions are a bit steep in upfornt cost, installation and maintenance).
