Question My muse, Tell me what you think.

If you could please take this survey on my muse it will be very helpful in taking it to the next stage. It is only 15 questions. Please feel free to post comments on the idea after.

I think it's a cool idea.

Not because of space in my wallet, but I hate having to carry my personal card and business card and pull them both out all the time.

Cool idea. I think there would be a lot of value in terms of convenience. Keep the following in mind:

-What happens if you or the cashier charges the wrong card?
-How would you work this out with banks?
-How woudl a customer get one? Through one of the banks? If so, which bank?
-Surveys don't really count for much in terms of gauging interest in a product. People will say they will buy/use your product to be nice. The testing comes with creating a dummy situation where people think they are purchasing/sigining up for your product for real. You count the interest from this dumby situation.

Thank you for those comments. All of those problems are being addressed. And we are getting ready to lauch with a major bank, but they are putting alot of weight on this survey. Any ideas how I can get 2,000 people to take the survey?

Thanks agian

That's a really good idea. I filled out your survey, I would definitely use one. Good luck with your muse.

An idea...dual accounts per card might be more popular with those keychain credit cards, if you could engineer that. It kind of sucks that they only support 1 account, no one would want a few of them jangling from their keychain.

Twitter and facebook the link.

Email the link to everyone you know and ask them to pass it along...bribe them with something.

Post the link on a high-traffic message board.

go to www.t-nation.com and post in the "off topics" section. About a bazzilion ppl go there a day.

Try bodybuilding.com's forums too, they have an offtopic section.

I realize those are weight training sites, but we weightlifters use credit cards too!
