Rob Alner Depending on pricing www.igclan.co.uk could be up for it, we are a non profit organisation that like to have matches but need an easy access communications platform to get some messages out fast.

Dean La Douceur I think you need to look at an entry level and a premium tier of serivices. Many successful sites and services allow us a basic functional level for free and then a bonus, really rich level of services for a cost.

I agree. Especially in today's economy, people are looking for value. For many, that means offer something for free that is still feature-rich. If you are beta testing, offer a special reduced price to them and/or a free trial of the full version of the software when it goes live.

As far as pricing.. How bout 14.95-19.95 a month or a flat rate for a year 125-130... My two cents

NewPanda What do you think of positioning NewPanda as the "Triple-Threat" - an easy place to send your message by Email, Mobile and Social?

Email and mobile are covered by so many tools out there so adding the social aspect would make you a good element if done right. But it has to have an API and integrate. Our product FortyFourFIsh which is a robust CRM would need to store the history of each of those messages and campaigns or at least be able to extract from you that you did and the results. Exciting.

So true. Well, at least you got the real market leaders in your list! :) We're trying to keep it simple in our product dev so we streamline the sending of a message. From one place, create a full email version and then choose if you want to also SMS text it, Tweet it or Facebook Wall it. We'll actually have the ability to share it with dozens of other sites (but that's an alternative step).

NewPanda Our friends in the UK are gaga for mobile. Browsing the web was the fastest growing activity between Q2 & 3.
Downloading apps came in second. More interesting info:

Great product line, Margaret. We're working hard to nail down pricing - and we're definitely focused on having an inexpensive entry-level offering. First priority is to get some feedback with our free beta testers. You're on our list for the next wave of announcements!

The only pricing advice I can give you is go flat rate monthly with a send cap and pay for overage. If you try and charge per send it will scare some of your best clients away in the NPO/NGO sector.

NewPanda Zappos is a great case study on building a customer service culture in a Web 2.0 world. Relevant for both online and main street businesses and organizations.

So it sounds like you will provide a template library. Will we be able to upload our own? What about tracking? Have you started to flesh out tracking such as using a service like VisiStat? I can recommend my friend Tina Bean at VisiStat if you want to integrate.

Yep, you'll be able to upload your own custom HTML or choose from a variety of templates. We do have a custom tracking feature built in and we're also working on Google Analytics integration. Good thinking! :-)
