During the promo sprint we talked about employing some of the money we obtained from the Pineapple Fund to employ a marketing research firm.
What we need is a list of topics that would help us work on plans that will help us expand our userbase.
These topics will be then turned into questions so we can submit them to a marketing research company and they can find the answers for us.
As our resources are limited, we thought that it would be best to divide the topics into three categories:
|We have to find out | We can ask others to find out | Info that is probably already out there | Target audience |
|How many Plasma users are there?| How many Linux desktop users are there? | How many desktop user are there? | All |
|What would you use these applications for? Krita/Kdenlive|||Graphic Artists|
|What would you use these applications for? GCompris/Kalgebra/Minuet/...|||Educators|
Please propose your ideas in the comments. Think of topics that can directly help with our job of growing the number of users and contributors. The example above, for example, would give us a baseline, an idea of where we are starting from. necessary to help us see if what we do works.
