This is a notably tricky site with<br \/>\nlots of custom CMS components. One idea for a service is responding with the<br \/>\nsong name and artist when a user sends an SMS to a BEAT premium number. We<br \/>\nhave to technically work out how this could be achieved. BEAT favours using<br \/>\nPhonovation&#8217;s gateway. I presume this is all webservice based but we&#8217;re<br \/>\ngoing to find out. This work wasn&#8217;t in the specced price and we&#8217;ll be adding<br \/>\nanother 500 euro (minimum) onto the price for it. <\/p>\n<p>2) DeCare Amazon &amp; Froogle catalogue management using StoreFront. We&#8217;ve a<br \/>\nmeeting next week with DeCare. They&#8217;re extremely good technically and could<br \/>\ngenerate a lot of business for us if we&#8217;re recommended as they&#8217;re<br \/>\n&#8220;preferred&#8221; shopping cart for smaller retailers. Essentially this work will<br \/>\ninvolve creating a module to enable a new catalogue (2 different CSV<br \/>\nformats) to be automagically created and FTP&#8217;d to amazon\/froogle. It<br \/>\nshouldn&#8217;t kill us to do this but the bad news is that we won&#8217;t get paid<br \/>\nuntil we show that it works. <\/p>\n<p>3) SAGE custom software development<br \/>\nSpec to be provided by EVROS. Perhaps they might even pay us within terms<br \/>\nthis time! We&#8217;ll have to charge steeply for this. Spec has just been<br \/>\nreceived \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>4) CREST Rating service with WIT. This is another freebie but would enable<br \/>\nus to automatically bill customers on the Wireless Network for VoIP and<br \/>\nother traffic. The CREST rating service works so it only remains to create<br \/>\ncharging schemes for the VOIP based on our flat rates (easy) and to<br \/>\ninterface with National Irish Bank&#8217;s direct debit interface (a web service<br \/>\nof interdeterminate complexity). We&#8217;re meeting National Irish next week. <\/p>\n<p>5) Launching the phone service. We&#8217;ve now got a CPS offering so we can sign<br \/>\nup anyone, even if they don&#8217;t have broadband. We make 4 times the margin on<br \/>\nthe standard VoIP service so that&#8217;s best but 10% is better than nothing so<br \/>\nlet&#8217;s get cracking. <\/p>\n<p>Regards, <\/p>\n<p>\t&#8230;shane<\/p>\n<p>\/\/=============================<br \/>\n\/\/ Shane Dempsey<br \/>\n\/\/ Managing Director,<br \/>\n\/\/ Gaisan Technologies Ltd.<br \/>\n\/\/ e: sdempsey@gaisan.com<br \/>\n\/\/ u: http:\/\/www.gaisan.com<br \/>\n\/\/ t: +353 (0)51 304224<br \/>\n\/\/=============================<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi, OK guys, here&#8217;s a summary of the new projects that we&#8217;re understaking and some outstanding questions regarding both. 1) Beat FM Development of new website incorporating online advertising, some animation, SMS integration and content management.
