Urbantrike (looking for input)

[RealOG]

Wifey and I have started a new business, Urbantrike. Basically, think of these as adult sized big wheels or three wheeled low-rider beach cruisers. They are a total blast and bring back your childhood the instant you sit on one.

​

At the B&P, we had a number of you play around on the prototypes we made and gave some great feedback. There is so much to do! Right now, we are focusing on improving the prototypes, getting some production models out there, and growing our FB fan page. Our plan is to grow FB to 1000 fans, at which point we will launch a campaign on Kickstarter to raise funding for new models. Here is where we could use some help:

1. Facebook Fans - what effective and low costs options are out there to get "quality" FB fans?
2. Website Input - what changes would you make to the website to improve it, make is easier to navigate and generate interest?
3. Improvements to the model - what options and improvements would you like to see on the new model. The mark 2 is coming out and includes a larger front wheel and free spinning front gear. The frame is crafted much better than the protos.

Thanks for your help. Once we have a bit more confidence built up on this business I will post to the Speedway 1 and then eventually to the overall forums.
