To edit: http://wiki.tcl.tk/edit/13665@ ----- This page is part of [The TCL/TK Games CD Project]. See that page for more details. ----- '''Global task # 1: Marketing feasibility study''' [Robert Abitbol] I believe that what I propose to do is called a Marketing feasibility study in marketing technical terms. Since I am more or less the only one interested in the marketing aspect of this thing, I propose myself as marketing director. I was never interested in sales nor marketing -- more in the creation aspect -- but everyone who knows me well says I'd be an incredibly good salesman. And I agree... A TCL programmer does not have to do the marketing effort if he does not want to. In fact, another approach could be to approach students in marketing at universities and to tell them about our project. I know one personally in France and since he is a dynamic go-getter I know he'd be interested. Besides this sort of games combo is not at all hard to sell... I'll start contacting eventual buyers in Canada as early as next Monday and I'll post my results here. '''Anyone interested in doing the same in his country/region can do the same...''' Just leave your name in the bottom of this page. Pessimists will say: "yes but what happens if we cannot get a CD together we will have worked for nothing." Not at all. There is no such thing as working for nothing. Eventually this marketing info can be very useful if not to us then to someone else. ----- '''People interested in marketing the Games CD''' 1) [Robert Abitbol]: Canada and possibly Northeast USA ---> See: [The TCL/TK CD Games Project: Marketing in Canada F/up] 2) ----- [MAK] - I fail to see the point. First, I would expect all proceeds to go towards supporting [The Ticker's Wiki], http://www.tcl.tk/, or [Tcl Marketing] -- not lining an individual's pockets. Second, you just publish via www.cafepress.com or similar, and they take care of the store front, the orders, the production and the shipping (including internationally). ----- [Category Games], [Category Community]
