You wouldn't be wasting your time on the Conglomerate project. I was saying you were a subject matter expert (SME) on certain things. There is this thing planned for one of the phases (P2 and/or 3, I can't remember) called the SME component or module of the website.
If a P2 Subsidiary is very active in the SME module, it should get enough attention to become far busier. I imagine many Subsidiaries would not be able to keep up with demand and would start to ignore "Info Requests" from would-be customers, losing their business to other active/subscribed SMEs.
Basically there are Subjects of knowledge. Consumers, researchers, etc. submit Info Requests. The SMEs subscribe to whatever Subjects they want, to receive Info Requests, giving them the opportunity to market themselves.
Consumers, researchers, etc. will see histories of SME Info Request Responses, with the ability to follow/post on threads, when they investigate Subjects. It's basically a search engine for the module.
As I was saying, eventually SMEs will stop responding when they get too busy and the next best SME will get more attention. The SME's Subsidiary ad with logo, slogan and contact info (and link to Subsidiary's webpage) is displayed with their Responses.
Hmm. wonder if I should copy-paste that somewhere... Ah well, isn't the first time I typed it out, won't be the last!
Well if you have to do this type job more than once you aren't managing your time very well. Copy and paste to a word doc and name it for future look ups. I'm a big picture kinda guy and your giving me details that are somewhere in the middle of the big picture. I don't see it. Sorry, maybe I need your guidance to where on the conglomerate site I need to start in order to get the big picture so I can understand how this all is going to work. I cant buy into something until I know what it is and how it works.
Understood, it's really just beginning. I'm getting people thinking about various facets of it all and using the great feedback I've received.
I don't mind typing certain things out again and again. New ideas come to mind each time, and each time I do it gets more solidified in my mind.
It's going to be a challenge conveying everything concisely, I'll probably have to make a video in the future when things are more ship-shape.
I went to your site again and Frankly it is so loosely organized and explained I still don't know what your talking about. You need to flesh out your ideas better so folks understand how your idea is going to work. I think your time is better spent doing that till you get it done before you try to recruit folks to join.
