Ok No Marketing! It is not really our business plan anyway!

God I hate people power...

It would appear you don't hate people power that much, the original version has reappeared

Hi,

If you see my post of 07-10-2006, 21:40 on the previous page I did highlight the change. It is different to the original. We had to do it otherwise we would not be able to even email people to say anything about Getmooh. Anyway Getmooh does not verify on email but on mobile number - so 40% of people fake their email anyway which is as good a way of opting out as any I reckon.

Also there is an unsub function on all our communications.

can you unsub by text and if so how much does it cost?

[dankco]

We don't have any SMS receiving capacity yet so it is not possible to unsub by SMS - but then we only ever send SMS with password. We have not done any SMS contact with users who signed up other than that. To be honest I can't see us doing any either because you can't really express much detail about a new service/gizmo on SMS...

I totally understand that most people look at the site and the kind of thing it is and just reckon the only way we can do anything with it is by wrecking people's heads with spam, but the simple fact is we set the thing up as a laugh and we intend to keep it as fun as possible. We really just want to add loads of cool stuff to it and then I guess let people know about it when it is live.

If we had some visible means of support (like google ads) maybe people would be less suspicious of our intentions - but the fact is we don't need a lot of revenue to keep it going at its current level, so we thought it would be cooler to find services that people would pay for and those we are going to launch soon...

I don't think direct marketing is a very interesting way to make money - I think if Getmooh has any business potential it will be to do with social networking etc...rather than some cheap ass direct marketing.

I would love to do the whole system without requiring any signup - that was the original idea. But sadly once the service you provide is open to abuse and also costs money for every usage, you simply have to be able to control it. The only hole in the site to date (that we know of!) was ruthlessly robotted within days of our launch and I think that simply proves our point on this.
