How can AussieTycoon Improve?

[Brendan]

Hi Everyone,

I just want to gain some feedback from you all on what you think of the AussieTycoon forums and if you have any suggestions in how we could improve the way we do things and improve how you interact with each other?

This is the thread where we get some feedback from our valued members on how we can do things better and improve this for you!

Some questions to get the ball rolling...
- Are you currently getting what you expected out of the forum? i,e; good advice, networking opportunities, business ideas?
- Do you find it easy to interact with others?
- Do you think the forum is the right sort of technology for what we are trying to do? Can you suggest a different technology?
- Is the site easy to use?
- What would make you come and post more often?

Hopefully that should get you started, we really want to make this a great place where entrepreneurs and small business owners can network, harness ideas, and give advice to people looking to change their lives, so any feedback is valuable.

Thanks,

Brendan
The AT Team.

What about some sort of blog or article section where you release news on whats happening in the entrepreneurship market in Australia?

Have you thought about integrating your logins with facebook using Facebook connect?

A few things I think can improve the forum include:

• Upgrade to vBulletin.
• More users.
• Connected website with articles and other features (classifieds?)

That's all I can think of at the moment.

Hey Mat,

Thanks for the feedback.. we are already using vbulletin!
More users, well we are trying our best to get people on here and interact with us, have you got any suggestions?

We are working on providing some more articles and interviews as well, if you have anything to contribute of course feel free to post it.

In addition to more people, I thing greater variety of people (and therefore ideas) is also useful.

I think that's what they are trying to attract!

Any ideas on how we can get a greater variety of people?

I think it would be great to get on some high profile guest speakers to provide us all with some inspiration. More users would be good to, so I will spreed the word for you on my twitter account.

Other then that I think this forum is great and has a lot of room to grow for the better

can include categorize related groups like bookkeeping service, accounting, financial services etc. ?

[Brendan]

Hrm, interesting suggestion, what would you discuss there do you think?

Would it not be a bit more relevant if we had something like a tag cloud that you could use to find out what people are talking about?

I'm pretty new here Brendan, but it seems good so far. Just keep out the spammers, keep attracting new and diverse members and the site should go from strength to strength.
