Why do FlyingV / Redturtle need Mykra? #5

Open kindaPM opened 5 years ago

kindaPM commented 5 years ago

FlyingV or Redturtle(I haven't check it) also have businesses that below NTD10,000, but their website has more complete features, better looks, and better use. The function of Mykra is exactly the same as FlyingV, I think Builders would go directly to FlyingV. Maybe promoting for free might acquire FlyingV 's agreement, but I think if they really need an app to promote, they will build their own one.

Lots of good ideas here. Im working hard on a redesign.

I get your points, but I don't think we are in competition with them.

Check out www.reddit.com for how content curation can work on a huge scale.

But this is all good worrying! I will think hard about it.

Could you check what is the minimum project on Flying V / Red Turtle???

I know we are not in competition with them as we plan to link their projects at first (more like an auxiliary media to promote those projects). I'm just worried about that if Mycra doesn't have the difference with them, then people will have no incentive to use Mycra. So Mycra must have its own features which Flying V / Red Turtle don't have.

Minimum target amount FlyingV: NTD 5,000 Red Turtle: NTD 10,000

Sure we will have our own features. The key is content curation and dialogue with funders. You save people time by giving them quality, simplicity and speed.

Today I brainstormed letting people link to a Patreon. Different from FlyingV and Red Turtle, cos it's reliable monthly payments. Someone could say: Give me 100USD a month and I'll do a yoga class for old local people every Sunday morning. So we are generating steady income for people.

There will also be a competition aspect:

Funder: Hey, I have 30USD for the first person to do X.

When people compete, everyone gives the best of themselves.
