Hey guys Do you think our homepage is clearly describing what we do?

Yes. But at first glance, the video background distracts from the page copy. Not sure if I should read or watch. And the video is just a talking head.

yeah the video was irritating me. As I understand it - kickstarter for NGO/3rd world aid projects? the text was clear but uninspiring - very buzzword heavy.

Hey Bryan,

Not NGO's but businesses that serve a social mission e.g. TOMS. Thanks for the feedback, we definitely should look at making it more inspiring and clearer as we're not catered for non-profits.

Thanks for the feedback. We'll see what we can do to improve that.

you used lots of "social" on the page. social entrepreneur, social ideas. I wasn't sure about the meaning of it at first. Is it "facebook" kind of social, or non-profit/charity kind of social. it seems to be the later case after clicking around.

Hey Bill,

I guess the term social entrepreneur is still not widely used. It refers to entrepreneurs that solve a social, environmental or economic problem through a revenue-generating business. We'll definitely look into this to make it clearer. Thanks!
