Fed up with poor feedback?

Saturday, July 18, 2009

You ever get that project where the client begs you to put that uh... fancy 600x400 pixel flash intro on their web page? You know the one I'm talking about: no real function or use, a bunch of circles floating around while some techno reject soundtrack plays in the background and you start getting flashback from your clubbing days?


Concept Feedback
Apart from fond memories of glow sticks, those intros are not only lame and useless but they also increase the bounce rate on the home page, annoys your customers or clients, and sends a message that you like big flashing things (would you hang a disco ball in your living room? I didn't think so).


For times like these we present to you ConceptFeedback.com. Concept Feedback is a free tool that lets you share your concept with a group of industry professionals and get honest feedback. Got a client who's got a "great idea"? Mock it up, upload it, get it torn to shreds by designers, developers, and usability experts alike and show it to your client. Much better than getting it all coded up and then finding out your conversion rates just dumped a couple of percent.


We created the tool because there was demand for it internally. We dealt with the "design, review, approve" cycle a lot of times and we really felt there was room to make the process easier and more efficient for all parties involved.

Thanks you so much. I love this site. For me, this is the best site that has ever been invented. It is lonely and to work alone, and my evolution as a designer takes longer (maybe).

I don't have any clients driving me crazy now, but I will use it for that reason when it comes up again.

Also, I have been in the drafting/design field for 18 years, but have never worked with a creative staff, my very bad fortune. With ConceptFeedback.com I now have my own creative review team, my own free usability testers and new great ideas for my work. It is also helpful to have an international perspective and different levels of reviewers. Though I assume those without much talent would eventually be scared off.
