Integrating all Source Categories onto Main Page

Postby andrewd » Mon Nov 02, 2015 10:23 pm

I don't know if it's possible but here is our general idea....

Instead of having a "Select Source" dropdown at the top of the page, is it possible for the Main Page to pool the hyperlinked Categories from ALL Sources so it's a more intuitive ordering process?

Having a clean Main Page is nice, and it gives a lot of room for us to explain how to order from each vendor/Source, but if the Main Page simply had a list of categories to click on (pooled from ALL Sources), it would really be dummy proof. I can be a dummy sometimes, and here in Georgia where no one has ever heard of a buying club, except ours maybe...everyone's a dummy. From sign-in to selecting a product it's a 6-step process to order a single item from one vendor (Sign in, click Dropdown, Select Source, Click "Order" option, Enter Qty, Add qty to cart). Multiply that process (minus the initial sign-in process) by however many items, and there's a whole lot of back and forth going on to complete an order.

If it's possible to do, adding ALL Source Categories (or at least the option for clubs who might benefit from it) to the Main Page would reduce 5-6 steps down to 3, and would greatly increase ease of use for new members, especially, who are already unsure of what they're getting into.

At some point, if adopted, it might be cool to be able to dedicate an image for each Category that would act as a more visual representation of the Category, as listed on the Main Page.
