en.dorse.me … what’s in it for me?

Filed under: Uncategorized — Jef @ 3:00 pm

From previous posts, we know that en.dorse.me is about generating “Viral Feedback”. We know that through this new service, one can easily create a webpage that describes a concept, an idea or a plan. In fact, one can use this application to get feedback on just about anything. We also know that the “Feedback Request Engine” uses your social networks and email contacts to send messages that contain feedback requests and reseeding requests.

But what does that mean practically?

Here are some examples where en.dorse.me really makes a difference.

    1. Job Search

    When I want to hire someone, the thing that interests me the most is what other people think about that person. Having multiple positive endorsements from colleges and employers on previous jobs has far more impact than a nice CV.

    2. Craftsmanship

    I was looking for an electrician. Not just any electrician, I wanted one experienced in installing solar panels. I selected this company that sent me a link to their en.dorse.me page on which some people I know gave some very positive feedback. I just contacted them and they definitely suggest I should select them as they offer a superb service.

    3. Local services selection?

    A friend told me about the en.dorse.me page of that school I was going to send my kids to. I checked it out and really, I saw some comments of parents that weren’t happy at all about the a lot of the teachers. In one comment, I found a link to the en.dorse.me page of another school just half a mile further away and according to the feedback, that seemed to be a much better choice.

    4. Feedback on crazy ideas

    I had this crazy idea to hitch hike my way through the US during the next summer holidays. I posted this idea on en.dorse.me and at first, I got some feedback from people around me that had some ideas but later on I got feedback from people I didn’t know but that offered me very detailed information on places to visit, some even with addresses of local hotels and others with invitations to spend the night in their homes if I were to pass in the neighborhood. I decided to go ahead with my crazy plan :-)

    5. Global services selection?

    I am the owner of three leisure wear stores and I’m thinking about starting eCommerce but I really don’t know where to start and what to expect. Does anyone have any experience with this? That was the feedback request I posted on en.dorse.me. Soon after that, lots of colleges from all over the world had posted their feedback on my page and most of them suggested that I shouldn’t buy eCommerce software as they didn’t manage to be very successful for different reasons I didn’t even think of. Anyway, some told me about the “Merchant Solutions” offered by Yahoo and that really was what I was looking for.
