Based on RICE Framework, we will go ahead with Shop, Survey and Live
PRIORITIZATION
12. As shown in the Stats slide, about 47% of Reddit visitors have bought consumer electronics after the
discussion. This shows that consumers are highly likely to buy after the discussion. Here we can
generate revenue on the basis of commission per purchase.
The shop button will be shown on certain posts which will help members to buy during/after the
discussion on the post.
FEATURE 1 : SHOP
Feature tagged on the post After clicking on the Shop Buy from the landing page
13. Here users can conduct
research. Researchers face
the problem of not getting
enough responses or not
getting enough responses
from the target group. Thus
here Reddit can ask its users
to fill in the survey by taking
a fee from researchers.
To make the readers fill out
the survey Reddit can give
them rewards in terms of
coins.
FEATURE 2 : SURVEY
Survey feature Other Addons
14. There are only certain
channels/apps which
broadcasts a live
sports/concert/any kind of
event.
The problem faced by their
users is paying for a monthly
pack. There are many users
who like to watch that
particular match/event.
Thus Reddit can run pay per
event kind of pricing.
