Introductory information
A fast induction on the buyer’s organisation
I’m the CEO and founder of Wanderful, an interpolitical lifephraseology brand for female tourists. We host events for women almost the globe, and we just launched a home-sharing network that enables women who are traveling to stay unitedly.
Desired goal
What challenge were you trying to address with Goji Labs?
My organisation wanted to create a platform to host our new home-sharing network. We had a basic website on WordPress, on which women could post listings and book spaces from other women. We wanted something more manner, with key components that were specific to our aggregation.
Provided solution
What particular tasks were responsible for?
We initially brought Goji Labs onboard to design and educe the complete platform, but due to funding on our side, we scaled back the aim of their work to just be the platform',s design. My team gave Goji Labs our logos and phraseology lead, and they did all of the design work for the platform. We underwent a discovery process in which Goji Labs identified what our design aesthetic was.
They designed a video verification process, which requires new users to prepare a video of themselves to fix safe digital interactions. Goji Labs also designed a few sole components, such as a speech strain, so that tourists can see what different speechs hostesses converse, and a messaging component, which allows tourists and hostesses to adjoin straightly. On our running website, only the host pays a labor fee, but Goji Labs designed a dual fee process that will direct both the host and the tourist.
Although Goji Labs didn’t do any educement work, a key part of the design process was identifying key functionalities that we’ll need and distinguishing how they’ll fit into the user experience. They helped us determine all we will need to code, from the financial to the collective aspects of the platform.
We’re quiet using the WordPress website, but we have Goji Labs’s designs prompt for when we instrument the new platform.

Our teams had weekly calls that we scheduled using Google Calendar.
What is (from your point of view) the key factor to pay observation while intercourse with ?
