Consulting Ecosystem Team

Review

Review approve consultants that requested to be listed
Contact personally every consultant listed on Consultants to review listing and to invite to Consulting team.
Remove listings that have no indication of their Tiki services or that don't have the expertise to help customers.

Make sure Consultants list is up to date and useful.
- Check that the sites are up and relevant (a Link Checker would be nice)
Maintain info.tiki.org with help from the Communications Team
- Make sure they are Enterprise-friendly
Participate to branding.tiki.org to help make sure branding is helpful to consultants
Featured Sites
- Make sure consultants are adding their projects
- Make sure they are still using Tiki. If not, move to the File Gallery "Featured Tikis > OLD"
WikiMatrix: Make sure listings, URLs, e-mails are OK and encourage consultants to order a premium listing: Just go to the "update your consultant listing" (at the bottom of the consultants list). Then follow the link to "Order a Premium Listing" at the "Premium Listing" section. Or just use these URLs: http://www.wikimatrix.org/cedit.php http://www.wikimatrix.org/corder.php

Help with Tiki website revamp
Some people want to be contacted by a salesperson. Perhaps there could be an additional field on http://info.tiki.org/Contact+Us "I would like a Tiki Consultant to contact me to discuss my needs"
- Or perhaps develop a common form (a tracker) on info.tiki.org so potential customers can reach all consultants in one operation.
Better information on what types of consulting services are out there (ex.: feature dev vs configuration vs theme integration)
Sell banner ads on info.tiki.org, which will be great dogfood and the Fundraising Team will be happy too! 😊
Setup a way to reach all consultants (ex.: vote for Tiki operations)
Determine a priority list of apps we should try to import from (ex.: phpBB, Twiki, etc.)

Live Support Service
Have a "rating" system implemented.
- Either "force" consultants to identify themselves as: Junior, intermediate or senior.
- Therefore, have that tracker allowing clients to "rate" a consultant. Like a "Up or Down" button like this:
