OK, I'm a new Rabbit, so please excuse me if what I say has been repeated elsewhere... Who is that page aimed at? is it for the punter or retailer? I'm guessing the retailer, given the "buy it" link goes through to a page that suggests a display set. However, in my opinion, it looks like that first page is suggesting "Hey, buy Christian Fluxx - only $2 (just look at the price circle on the info card)" and then the next page it's much more clear that you need to buy a Fluxx deck too. But if I were a retailer, what's the incentive for me to buy a $2 expansion for $2? I can't mark it up, as the price is listed on the expansion itself. But I also may not have any idea how well it might sell, and thus not be tempted to get the display box. ANd what's the size of the display box? Maybe it wouldn't work with my set up. If you really are aiming it at retailers, they need some incentive to be able to make their first purchase worth it. A suggestion, then, might be something like: "Interested? Not sure? Want to know more? Request a free demonstration" and then a for where they can enter their details, and then Carol can find a local demo rabbit to contact the store to arrange to go in and demo the game. You might also want to add in the main text something about it bringing families together (which is typically a fairly big value in Christian and Jewish households). The side bar has "addictive fun for the whole family" which conveys that it's suitable for everyone, but (to my mind) doesn't convey that it is a great way to bring family together around the table.

so we've got two new pages up: <http://www.wunderland.com/LooneyLabs/Fluxx/Holy/Christian.html> <http://www.wunderland.com/LooneyLabs/Fluxx/Holy/Jewish.html> and they have a basic description of what Fluxx is... and I was thinking to add in some testimonials... what else can we put on these pages to help them speak to an audience that has never heard of Fluxx but find their way to this page due to advertising they find in Christian or Jewish settings? What else are you looking for on such a page, Laurie? -K. --On November 8, 2006 Kristin <kristin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > --On November 8, 2006 "Laurie J.
