I’ve never been a fan of QR codes, but I’ll ponder NFC a bit more. Thanks.

Through using NFC and the Wallet…I would like to receive a voucher from Mxit partners given the fact that I am in close proximity to these partner stores and that they have some kind of a promo running. For example: I am walking past Vida and i get sent a voucher automaticaly through the above mentioned technology depending on my location…get into Vida Stellies and use this voucher no to get R5 of your next cup of coffee. Cashier enters no on POS and boom. This concept has legs as it can be extended to any other partnering company. Could be used for clothing retailers, restaurants etc.

This will be a definate winner to get the over 30′s back on the platform.

Also another idea: QR code reader within Mxit. Users use it to drive social commerce in conjunction with an external Mxit partner. Say for example all Levi’s Jeans had QR codes. Our users scan the QR code in-store as they would click like on FB to say we like this product. The more people that scan this in-store i.e. the higher the likes/demand the lower the price of the product such as jeans get driven… The user can click on the “Buy Now” button within the Levi’s portal or within wallet and enter their size, delivery details and the wallet will already be linked to their credit card or cash deposited in wallet for immediate purchase and 24 hour front door delivery of thsi product. Now that will be amazing.

We have such a unique advantage and the chance to realy drive social commerce within this country and continent which the likes of social media giants such as Facebook and Twitter will find difficult if not impossible to achieve within an South -African or African context.

Use it – Don’t use it.

Hopefully you will use it.

Kind Regards

Burger

Had an Audi, sold that and got a BMW. Much of a muchness (except for the pleasure of real wheel drive and a 3.0 litre 6 soundtrack). Specialised independants are almost always better at service delivery than the corporate behemoths.

Coffee. I was going to ask you how you managed to navigate around that one. We just bought this Nespresso machine for our staff and now…I am all addicted again. An espresso “on-the-fly” is a special thing! Hows it going at World of Avatar?

You seem to have bad luck with Audi! The service from Audi Centre CT has been brilliant for me.

Hi Conrad

Thanks for the comments.

Still avoiding the coffee, coke and McD. Coffee seems to be the hardest to avoid – people want to give you a coffee in every meeting.

I just found info on you by hook or by crook (through an article on bandwidthblog) – did not know of you before. Pretty interesting reading material (http://www.swimgeek.com/me/history). Will continue to check out your progress. At this point I would have to add that I am pretty impressed but I don’t want to blow smoke up, well, you know where. Good stuff. Well done and keep it up! PS: Still not drinking coffee, or Coke? How about the Maccie D’s?
