Notes:

Merging in code with Dustin and Steve.

Meeting with Hamilton from Full Circle at 10 am. They are looking for a January 1, launch date. Josh gave us a small update on where he is at. Customer dash board to show coupons, loyalty points, preferences, and maybe even a self check-in (add to queue). A possible manager's dashboard and tracking throughput and what campaigns are used and ratios for closing those campaigns and coupons. Josh is looking to build out some matrix to help show profit, costs, and other demographics (age, distance from store, etc.).

They are looking to add a flag at the corporation level as well as at the customer level on who is playing with Full Circle (who opted in). If both corp and customer levels match up, we can add additional functionality. As part of an advertising campaign, we may just grey out the fields and help prompt the users to sign-up to get the additional functionality.

Josh was talking about a virtual batting average per campaign - how many messages were sent out, what was the ROI and usage, etc. This will be more than just a response matrix, it will include prices, costs, profits, usage, etc. A mix of different stats and variables. Josh is also trying to tie-in things with his new discount rules and discount engine. This is a combo of both existing discounts in the system as well as mixing with outbound campaigns.

There have been some talks on making a standalone version to capture more market share. Basically, a special functional section for adilas users and another one that is just a standalone, that way it may be used in multiple arenas.

Timelines and vision - Josh is going to be breaking things into chunks to help with development and deployment. One of the keys that has been tied in, this past week, was the line item level of or for campaign tracking. That will be a huge key for reports going forward.

Question by Hamilton - what options do I have if I wanted to stand up my own box (server and databases)? He was talking about a go to market strategy. What are the entry points? Options (1, 2, 3, or 4)? Two scenarios, existing adilas users (what do they get) and new users, that don't use adilas (but maybe hit at what they could have)? Basically, Hamilton doesn't necessarily want two code bases but we may have to try to direct them to the main adilas system. Make it a double sale. Hamilton was talking about a mini version of the adilas platform (small and cute and limited) and then over time, allowing his outside users to eventually migrate over to adilas over time.

We talked about a mountain (show everything) vs a ice berg (limited view but more available)... Josh and Hamilton would like to flip the model and expose a smaller portion that looks awesome but has huge potential as they get deeper. It kinda comes down to the entry point (perception). This conversion is basically talking a mini version of the white label concept with a limited entry point. One of the key pieces is the domain name (it has to be pointed to a single server). We also talked about some dual entry points where we have both adilas domains and full circle domains pointed to the same box. Think of it like doors on a building... did they come in from the front, back, side, or up from the floor below? Piece of cake. It comes back to entry points, preferences, and traffic flow.

Hamilton was talking about "dangling" options in front of his clients... virtual up sales of what else if available. If you purchase adilas as a package, it may be harder to up sale the client - they kind of expect the full package. However, if they come in from the Full Circle side, they Full Circle, could sell and/or expose other pieces based on a more modular pick and choose type model. That could be really cool. Once again, showing the full mountain vs just an ice berg with more potential under the surface.

There were some light conversations between Steve and Hamilton about data storage and processing - who is hosting what pieces and where does the traffic come from? In a lot of ways, we don't really care where the clients come in the door as long as they come to play. We also talked briefly about Full Circle being able to expose small pieces as they become available (breaking the adilas mountain into modular pieces that are add-on's and virtual up sales).

As a side conversation, there was some talks about beefing up the reoccurring billing section (reoccurring invoices) and making it more modular and automated. Billing for our services is a big things for us internally. The easier the process becomes, the less time we have to spend chasing it. That leave more time for other tasks. The tuff part is the technical side, the fun part is the selling of the features - from Hamilton. Hamilton wants to use his existing adilas account and setup reoccurring billing from inside the system for his existing Full Circle invoices. We will have Josh and Shari O. help get Hamilton all setup with the reoccurring billing inside of adilas. Josh was stating some ideas about helping to automate things back and forth between the main adilas accounts and the Full Circle billing parts and pieces.
