Update #45

14. September 2020
  1. Have looked at the progress of the prototype together and discussed further steps: Adding additional functions, the visibility of a shop's products, filtering according to sustainability features and displaying card entries in the shopping list
  2. Furthermore, the design of the prototype will be adapted for a better UX / UI experience
  3. Then exchanged further ideas: To harmoniously connect the producers, the product and service market, as well as to add the current status of the tree planting under the header & to make 3D images for products and to enable 3D views of the shops one day ????
  4. Have looked at the design of digital point of sale together
  5. Otherwise we have decided to continue with the Design & Structure blog & complete it this week
  6. Raphi shared an update of Holochain RSM (Refactored State Model) with lots of new features as a way for us to get started
  7. We have discussed further categories and sub-categories for products (e.g. cobblers and tailors combined for repair & upcycling)

Update #44

11. September 2020
  1. Have continued through the Business Value Concept with an emphasis on Business Model & Plan.
  2. With Co-Lovevolution as the first partner, we can gain initial experience of how we can expand the MVP according to your needs, upload the first products & how we process the payment.
  3. Have decided to open the marketplace for services in the field of personal development, spirituality & health.
  4. The brainstorming about Crypto, DAO & Holochain continued with the question of how far we can integrate it now and how we will use it in the future to promote sustainable developments ????
  5. Otherwise we have recognized the importance of the data and would like to share it transparently (open data) with the community so that no personal data rights are violated.
  6. ????With regard to financing, we have worked out different models depending on the category & organization: 1. Build up an income stream by personalizing the marketplace presence / webshop & with co-applications with partners and supplement it with a subscription system.
  7. Plan: As soon as the MVP & the videos are ready, we can enter into partnerships to jointly develop the marketplace according to the needs.


To-Do:

  1. Make a list of organizations per category without an online shop
  2. Co-create the proposal with Co-Lovevolution
  3. Video production: prepare a shooting list
  4. Summarize the business value concept more aesthetically & continue working on it with a focus on finance & funding, magic sauce & competitive positioning - as well as thinking about subscription systems

Update #42

5. September 2020

1. We first obtained an overview of Lightwave's existing communication channels (social media, photos and videos).

2. We then discussed adding a blog to clarify our concept with entries.

❤️ 3. This is to help new people enter the Lightwave ecosystem and community and access information about the sustainable market.

4. The blog also serves to record our ideas for ourselves and to give users/readers the opportunity to vote on further developments.

5. The next steps are to integrate the blog on our website and then find a structure (categories etc.) & design together.

✍️ 6. Otherwise, anyone who wants can start blog entries and save them for themselves first.

7. On Monday, we started with a storyboard for a video production in which we depict the user's process (order-> delivery, order -> pickup & reconciliation -> impact).

Update #41

1. September 2020

1. You can find the current version of the prototype at https://www.yourgatsby.de Tibor & Isabel continue programming on the back-end & UI. With the main focus on the map

2. At https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Lg6ympRs6NSWM-EQI1pONwRSSCKTWk1m?usp=sharing I store the original files of the images & icons from the MVP

3. Have discussed the technical possibility that we can establish a connection between the individual online shop and the simultaneous appearance on our marketplace

4. We also discussed something about strategic and financial opportunities: Among other things, to set up our own pillar as an online shop service provider parallel to fundraising at foundations - Then we got the DAO from Lightwave (https://client.aragon.org/# / lightwave) including the presentation to get a feel for what a participatory budget can look like. With the idea that we can better convince organizations & end customers to create together
