How cool would it be if that big slider at the bottom of the home page wasn't permanently tied to the premium plan? What if you could select a plan to be featured in the slider? You could create a sponsors plan just for that purpose. Better yet, what if that slider (or any slider) could pull from a tag instead of a plan? Especially cool if it could pull from a smart tag in your contacts list instead of one of the business tags you create inside Smart Directory AI. That way, your tags could be applied to your business contacts (& removed) dynamically, from workflows, as well as manually. Plus, the smart tag could stay invisible, and wouldn't affect directory taxonomy & navigation. Some use cases besides a sponsors slider: ✅You have a "What's Hot" slider on the home page. You can change the tag any time you want - daily, weekly, monthly, randomly, according to holidays or events, eclipses - whatever. • You can set it to the "taco tuesday" tag every Tuesday and the slider features offers from Mexican restaurants who've paid for or earned their "taco tuesday" tag. • You run a Mother's Day slider with all the brunch places and spas and florists who grab their mother's day tag. • You run an interesting slider on 4/20 • How would you use it? ✅You have a "Who's Hot" slider highlighting businesses that have done something worth rewarding. Could be something off-site or on-site - like publishing blog posts maybe. ✅You could have a "Who's New" slider featuring businesses that signed up or leveled up this week. ✅Your "Featured Businesses" slider could be segmented by tagging each biz with the month they joined - so your slider content refreshes monthly & doesn't get stagnant or too full. ✅Run a contest or promo to have your consumer members offer suggestions - make it fun and engaging. I think it's not just another trinket to offer members - it's also dynamic content for the site, another reason for the consumers to check in occasionally. I'd love to hear about other possible use cases. What do you think?
