The document discusses strategies for a social media platform called Prudal. It recommends rolling out new products every 9-18 months, emphasizing innovation, and giving employees 20% work time for personal projects to drive motivation. It also suggests rewarding the most productive employees monthly and expanding city-by-city to monitor growth more easily than worldwide. The platform will allow high customization through themes, plugins, and rollbacks to previous versions. Users can gain credits to unlock features by watching ads. The document argues Facebook's popularity will decline so Prudal should launch now to take its place by offering a mainstream product.

The Nuts & Bolts of Prudal A Cloud of Services
Productivity Roll out new products as often as possible Both frontend & backend teams MUST correlate to roll out new updates, patches, and releases etc. Every 9-18 months roll out a new product Innovation: Innovation can MAKE or BRAKE the company It's no longer Location... Location... Location. Its Innovation... Innovation... Innovation.
Productivity (Cont'd) Employee Benefits: Empower the 20% rule. All employees are given 20% of the week to be productive on there own time while in the office. This means they can brainstorm, play video games, code, whatever there hearts desire. This in turn drives more motivation in achieving greatness for the company as well as personal affairs and projects Offer a bonus every month to honor all the most productive workers in the company. Whether it be brainstorming, coding, market researching etc. Employee's will be more productive and will be more eager to be productive if they know a prize is awaiting them at the end of the month.
Prudal - The Social Network Everything is modulated. In other words everything is customizable, interchangeable, and theme-able Use Keywords such as: PersonaPlus (Themes), Plugins, Modules, and Addon's, Packages, Premiums
Dashboard Your wall will consist of a notebook like tool. In resemblance to http://www.google.com/notebook. This will gear the site more towards a blogging look and feel rather then a micro- blogging platform which Facebook tends to favor with its word count restrictions.
Revenue - Lets face it allot of our users aren't gonna wanna spend allot of money for the power of modularity. So we empower the use of credits. The EU (end user) can watch videos or listen to commercials embedded in there dashboard to gain more credits. They can also buy cards in the stores.
Expansion - Facebook is geared towards mainstream usage. In order to become as powerful as the powerhouse Facebook we need to start out as a mainstream society social network. - We need to open city-by-city. This way we can monitor growth and it makes it easier to grow. For example: it's faster to pass out flyers in a city than the world, right. Apply this to our expansion package
Flavors! Just as there are complexities to the different types of ice cream. Our site will empower complexities or as we call it Flavors. When the user signs up, he will be presented with an extremely simple layout. He can then watch videos and learn through tutorials and so forth as to how to completely customize his Prudal site. He will also have the ability to roll back to previous versions of his works. In case he messes up or his account gets too cluttered with modules.
Theory 1.0 Whatever goes up must come down. That's a basic law of Physics right? Well the same can be said about Facebook The sooner we can get production rolling, the sooner we will be ready to take first place when Facebook falls We need to start while Facebook is at its all time high. Pretty soon its nothing but downhill for Facebook. And once Facebook has fallen everybody will know of Prudal and begin to use it.
Theory 1.1 It's allot easier to grow per-city rather than per-country. We will have agents in the cities with which we are expanding to go out to use our advertising methods to get the word out about Prudal. Pretty soon, if all goes as planned cities will hear about us before we even get agents to them. This will be done through word of mouth. We will buy extremely short website URL's such as fb.me to advertise rather than to use facebook.com. This is easier for the EU (end user) or that guy on the street walking his dog whom saw a billboard to remember.
Misc. Facts Facebook has succeeded because they offer a product to the general populous. If we want to succeed in the industry we need to offer a product also to mainstream society.
