• Some people want to be contacted by a salesperson. Perhaps there could be an additional field on http://info.tiki.org/Contact+Us "I would like a Tiki Consultant to contact me to discuss my needs"
  • Or perhars develop a common form (a tracker) on info.tiki.org so potential customers can reach all consultants in one operation.
• Have a "rating" system implemented.
  • Either "force" consultants to identify themselves as: Junior, intermediate or senior.
  • Therefore, have that tracker allowing clients to "rate" a consultant. Like a "Up or Down" button like this:

    Plugin Image No image specified. One of the following parameters must be set: fileId, randomGalleryId, fgalId, attId or src.

• Better information on what types of consulting services are out there (ex.: feature dev vs configuration vs theme integration)
• Sell banner ads on info.tiki.org, which will be great dogfood and the Fundraising Team will be happy too!
• Live Support Service
• Setup a way to reach all consultants (ex.: vote for Tiki operations)
• Determine a priority list of apps we should try to import from (ex.: phpBB, Twiki, etc.)
