Boston Pizza Uses Strutta Platform For Contest

Posted by Greg Andrews on Fri, October 3, 2008 6:05 PM · Filed under , Internet Marketing , Drupal · 5 Comments

Client launches come and go, but every so often, there's free pizza. That's exactly what Boston Pizza is doing, as the first customer on Strutta's new contest and voting platform. A spinning ring of pizza presents their designer selections and entices the user to enter for a chance at free pizza for a year.

mmm pizza

Interesting technical note: the "pizza carousel" isn't Flash, it's entirely HTML and Javascript with JQuery. Somewhere underneath it is Drupal. I'm a longtime fan of BP's, but in my opinion, the best pizza in Vancouver has a site with animated GIFs.

Thanks for the nod, Greg.

I'm not monogamous when it comes to pizza either; while I do love me some BP, it should be noted that I have also done some marketing work for your favourite 'za a while back: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhUdr2uS-AM

We sure don't expect a BP love-in, but whatever we can do to keep you pizza lovers coming back - we'll do our best :)

Shout out to the team at Strutta for their great work on the Designer Pizza Vote. They outdid themselves, let me tell you...

Okay so I've been reading about Strutta's "social competition" platform and after that failed about their "white label" strategy. Is this it? Looks like they're onto a third business plan, spending $1M to build a flash-based web form.

This looks like a $5,000.00 contract-development flash application. So, only 200 more "white label" deals like this for Strutta's investors to get their money back!

yeah I dont see this one trick pony having much gas in it. Im guessing the investors got whipped into investment frenzy akin to beer goggles only to realize what they had done the next day.

I wonder how many more revisions of the business plan will happen before they call it a day

A million dollars for that? I guess the credit crunch hasnt killed off all the stupid investors.

That does look like a 5 grand flash job for sure. I guess they must have blown their dosh on fancy chairs and office. Oh well...What the dotcom crash didnt teach the first time the credit crunch should this time.
