Building awareness of ActionThis
Posted on 29 October 2007 by Tim HowellIn the run up to launch, we deliberately kept a low profile. As we’ve gotten closer to launch, we’ve contacted an increasing number of people – media, bloggers, analysts – and told them about ActionThis and what we’re doing.
The response has been overwhelmingly positive, and as the articles and posts have appeared, so has the visibility of ActionThis.
Now, as we launch, coverage of ActionThis is starting to build:
- ActionThis Launches Online Task Management Service – Read/WriteWeb (link http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/actionthis_launches_online_task_management_app.php)
- Can ActionThis Stand up to Basecamp? – Mashable (link http://mashable.com/2007/10/28/actionthis-launch)
- Software firm's package 'gets workers home early' – New Zealand Herald (link http://www.nzherald.co.nz/section/story.cfm?c_id=5&objectid=10471893)
- ActionThis launches on-line project management service – Geekzone (link http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?ContentId=7460)
- ActionThis – Execute Your Project (Killerstartups.com) - http://www.killerstartups.com/Web-App-Tools/community--Execute-your-Project/
Success – and the coverage that will bring – will be dependent on one thing: our ability to execute. We’ve taken an innovative approach to solving a universal problem, and will be listening to – and learning from – the feedback we get from all channels. Feel free to send us your comments and suggestions.
