An Idea For A New “Daily Deal” Website…

Sheldon Nesdale — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 04:30:05 +0000

Here's an idea for a new "Daily Deal" style website:

1 Featured Charity per day that you can donate $5 to

What do you think?

What could we call it? Eg "DailyGive.co.nz"? Or something else?

Would you volunteer your time to help me build it or run it?

Would you donate to the charity, if you thought it was a worthy cause?

This page is dedicated to the funniest deal's you've seen.

The funniest deal I've seen lately is the "LED Color Changing Shower Head with Remote" from TheDeal.co.nz:

I have so many questions!:

Why a remote control?
Do I really want to shower in the dark?
Can I get a waterproof iPod so I can have music with my lights?

When Something Goes Wrong With A Daily Deal, Is It Hard To Talk To A Real Person?

Sheldon Nesdale — Sun, 02 May 2010 22:44:17 +0000

Have you ever suffered from one of these problems?

You're not sure your order went through, you want to check with someone right now before you miss out
Your package hasn't arrived yet, it's overdue
Your purchase arrived but it isn't what you expected, you want to return it for a refund
Your purchase is faulty, you want a refund or a replacement

What do you do in these situations?

Do you:

Pick up the phone and call customer services?
Find an email address on the contact page?
Fill in a contact form on their website?
Open a support ticket using their online system?
Click "Reply" on one of the daily newsletters and write your message there?

Have you noticed that not all the Daily Deal websites offer all of these contact methods?

Have you noticed that most of the time you can't find a phone number at all, they force you to write an email to them?

Why are they so secretive about their phone numbers sometimes?

Perhaps they only have a couple of staff and they are too busy finding new products for next week, they are too busy to talk to you?

What are your thoughts on this?

How annoying is it not being able to find a phone number and talk to a real person?
Can you understand their perspective for not providing a phone number?

Would You Like To Take A Peek At All The Daily Deal Websites ALL On 1 Webpage?

Sheldon Nesdale — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 01:15:05 +0000

Well I have good news for you.

All the daily deal websites all on 1 webpage (or use the link in the main navigation "All Todays Deals")

This is a very very rough prototype, so don't expect too much.

And it certainly works better if you have a huge monitor, but give it a go.

What do you think? What improvements do you suggest?
