Typing this on the road – in Ho Chi Minh City. This is the second week of a three week roadshow – getting the word out on Hamza.
Roadshow last week was Chiang Mai and Bangkok Thailand – with decent turnout and sharing about the Hamza launch and the Empower the Seller program “teaser”. This perked up ears and got awareness of the program – and of the web2 ecommerce and online business owners – got the gears turning.
Last week we pushed hard on the Hamza launch – but with still many tweaks and details we decided to push 1 more week for the launch – to October 7. We haven’t pushed dates before, but with this being the private to public debut, we want to make sure the first experience is a pleasant one (still various UI/UX tweaks). The process / the idea is that before a launch we have some “quiet time” with no/minor bug fixes, so that we are more confident (and rested) on the actual go live.
This coming week – Mike is in Vietnam for the Roadshow with Global From Asia + Flippa – getting the word out and early input from the web2 ecommerce and business community. Ho Chi Minh on Tuesday and then Hanoi on Thursday evening.
And another full week of internal testing and workflow preparations for the 1 week pushed go-live on next Monday October 7.
LETS Get ready to decentralize ecommerce – decom!
