Re: [Zope-DB] A web based rewards management system for [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Bob,

Since this is somewhat off topic for this list, I have replied to Philip
directly, cc'ing yourself.

Bottom line: Implementing something like this with Plone and some RDBMS
integration should be relatively simple. For my own part, I think that
the RDBMS route has advantages over a pure Plone route (hey, that's
why I'm on this list!), but it's important to acknowledge that others
would disagree.

[Zope-DB] A web based rewards management system for [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[bob gmx]

Hi Everyone,

Can you help a colleague? [EMAIL PROTECTED]

He is looking for the following:-

 Okay here goes with a v brief requirement:

 + A web based rewards management system (a points scheme like
 mypoints, ipoints, rpoints),

 + Versatile content management system + community,

 + CRMS / email marketing system (or use a white-listed third party),

 + Easily skinned,

 + Powerful product, retailer, manufacturer directory, with - rate and
 reviews functionality , price comparison (eventually)

 + Ability to import and update large datasets easily,

 + Ability to serve own content and others content, maybe using
 xml/xsl, easily  fast

 + All with some clever back-end functions, stats, fraud prevention …

 I want to skew rewards for green / ethical / fair-trade products /
 services and use affiliate schemes like trade-doubler  CJ to get
 commissions which are recycled, but u get points whatever you buy (you
 cannot be good all o the time), but more if you buy green. You collect
 points and redeem for vouchers or donate to charity. Some of the
 commission goes to planet saving schemes.

 I discovered joomla recently, and I reckon you could do this through
 it, drupal or similar, plus stuff like oscommerce, phpbb, phplist,
 h2desk, for a very low initial outlay. When stumbled on the CMS Plone
 and remembered you talking enthusiastically about zope and python
 (good enuf for google is good enuf 4 me).

 Anyway the rewards system, which tracks links to completed
 transactions, is well beyond my primitive abilities. Also is my
 directory requirement combined with rewards actually actually just a
 modified shop?

 I don’t have a large budget, so was wondering about procuring in
 eastern Europe or India – am I completely mad?

 Any ideas?

Best Regards/MfG,

Bob Wheldon
