Hard at work!

We’ve been hard at work! Yes, our day jobs and Shifting Technologies. Folks, let me tell you… this isn’t easy! -_- but we couldn’t be happier and more excited!

On January 23rd we launched our new website: http://www.smartmenuplus.com where we posted a video presenting our product. So far we’ve had 128 page views for the website, which is an average of more than 10 daily visits and our video has been played more than 160 times… not too shabby.

Early this week we also had a meeting where we took several important decisions for the direction we needed to take. We decided where to put our focus in terms of development, marketing and research.

Marketing and research

We decided to advertise heavily the product using mainly foursquare and also twitter and Facebook. Through foursquare we can do check-ins in hot restaurants and recommend users to visit our website so they can know the product and our company. We’ve been trying to generate buzz while we are hard at work trying to push a prototype “out of the oven” ASAP.

Website

We are also currently working on changing the website so we it can showcase our product better. We are aiming to launch the new site this weekend, Sunday morning at the latest.

Finally we decided to also have the website available in Spanish, so we can reach the Spanish speaking markets, such as the Dominican Republic, which is where we are aiming to have clients in our first stage. The video was finished yesterday (Click here) and we’ve been promoting it through all the social media channels we have available.

Development plan

Our development plan is presently in the works and we will comment more on this later.

We’ll continue providing more information on each entry and we’ll try to have several entries per week. Until the next one! Wish us luck and thanks for reading.
