It's about time to ask... What Can We Do Better!

[SleepyC]

Ok guys, the site has been rocking along for some time now and we have built up a great bunch of guys. Bart and I have done our best to make the site easy to use, fun to be on and rock solid.

The one area we know we are lacking is available time to bring you every bit of industry news that is out there. Bart is still a pilot and I'm still, well , umm, well.. I just work a lot to pay bills so it only leaves us with the time we have. We are doing our best, and knowing our time restraints what can we do better?

Obviously the end game is to create enough income that I could spend 40+ hours a week on GSN, but until that day, what are some things you think would make the site better, help draw in some advertisers and make our community stronger?

Again, our goal is to highlight the positive side of this hobby, so any thoughts?

Hmm. How about we mount a bunch of webcams in @Terryscustom's workshop and live stream 24/7.
That will draw in the crowd!

Notta! This place is AWESOME!!

It's been said before, but should be repeated often...You and Bart have done an excellent job and I appreciate your hard work!!

Thanks also to the great group of members who have joined and generously share their knowledge and enthusiasm!!

What Mr. McNabb said. This place rocks already!

Guys, I know we did good. The site is solid, but we have to do better. I need to be able to get more advertisers so we can participate more.
I love my friends at Makergear, but working 12 hour days isn't helping me be UBER productive here on GSN.

I want ideas... the other site can be the commercial entity it is. They can have 3 - 4 full time people doing their thing. We can't be that right now... so since the site is YOU guys, what can we be? What can we all do as a community to make this place appeal to companies?

I love the members we have here, the info is by far the finest on the interwebz, but we can do better... so don't hold back, I was not looking for a back slapping session. Hopefully there are some creative people with some fresh ideas... I mean if you think it's good enough that it should not be public... Convo me!

Daily Streaming of Live content, Video Chat and eBay style auction feature (with slightly lower fees).

That's my dream list.

How hard could it be?

 

[Terryscustom]

I think event coverage is going to rock the house this year. We can work with and expand on that with a good plan.

Get back to your roots. Who could say no to this guy.
