Social Network Solution

Overview

Bamboo’s Social Networking Solution (SNS) is a key component in Bamboo’s eBusiness suite of solutions.

Social Network Solution implements an online environment where registered members can create communities, joining other users with the same interests and habits, make friends, share ideas, comments and activities with each other.

By providing such a social communication platform, Bamboo’s clients can quickly gather a large number of users that are interested in their product and service offerings. For example, a fishing equipment supplier may establish a fishing SNS website. All the users of the site share a common interest in fishing and become a clearly segmented group of potential customers. The costs of market segmentation are reduced, as the community naturally performs that work for you.

Companies spend large amounts in advertising in newspapers, magazines, TV and billboards. But how many of those ads reach the specific target audience? Does the target audience respond to such ads? How do they respond to such ads? Traditional media cannot give the answers to such questions. But by interacting with the users in communities, the merchant is provided with immediate market intelligence and customer feedback.

End User Features

Bamboo’s SNS solution provides features which are considered essential for any social networking service. These include the ability to set up and customize a personal 'profile', an ability for members to comment, fine granular control of who sees what (privacy settings), ability to block an unwanted member, have own page of personal (blog like) entries or notes and individual picture albums, ability to own, form or be member of a Group or Community within the network and increasingly the ability to include "Social Apps" or "Gadgets" which can create 'viral' like online contact and spread of information.

It also has additional features, such as the ability to create groups that share common interests or affiliations, upload or stream live videos, and hold discussions in forums.

Bamboo’s SNS solution is part of Bamboo’s e-Business. Bamboo can help its client to setup the SNS site and to provide the client with a revolutionary business development and marketing platform suite. The SNS solution includes extensive analysis of requirements, configuration, training and maintenance. We focus on the solution, so that you can focus on your business.
