This discussion shows you the first way to measure results on our operation : the classic statistic sensor that Kigh had put on the parcel where the booth was hosted on Champs Elysees.Kigh considers there were about 453 serious visitors on the booth and that the discussions the sales forces had with the second life visitors were serious, and that many leaded to contact in real life after this, so to say many sales opportunities which was one of the goals.
We also conducted a small qualitative enquiry on the booth with some survey stands, that were showing a real interest from the visitors on that kind of communication and contact from the client. Some clients were really enthousiastic and even wrote to me or Kigh to ask more about Second Life and how they could develop their own project.
And most of all, the FrontRange people were really satisfied of this and it really brought a new spirit to some of the team showing them new path of developping relationships into a professionnal environment.
I do not consider myself like a real "evangelist" as we used to say about the Apple people, but sometimes I feel this way. When we think we convince maybe about 400 people that were discovering Second Life thru this operation, and maybe some of those people will really develop their real life activity with it, and maybe returns to Second Life to create something that will also brings something useful to the resident community. We cannot really track this and measure it, but I am sure this small action is one of those small stones that grows the future of collaboration thru virtual worlds, and maybe for the best. And in some ways, I really feel proud to be an actor of this process....
It was a long time ago, when i discovered Second Life and started my very first resident project under the name of Clara Young.I had come to Second Life while I was writing a thesis on "Coaching and new technology : human accompaniment at distance" for the Paris 8 University. I was trying to explore the different means that were offered by distant tools as email, IM, videoconference and I was finishing by persistant universes. I had no ideas exactly of what I would found, but after a little while, I really get caught by the multiple creative aspects of Second Life. I finished my thesis and finally stayed inworld where I created the Feel at Home brand and my first village on Tulip Island. It was a magic time, where I made really good relationships in all over the worlds, and learnt a lot about community, small building and small scripting...
I had a vague idea I wanted to link this to my real consultant activity but I was taking my time. One day, I was contacted by one of a resident under the name of Kigh Kline. Kigh had seen the project I was working on for the Swiss Stem Cells Bank in Second Life. He decided he wanted to settle a presence for his real life company and created an beautiful house-office in Tulip Island. Kigh Kline is a wonderful person, and we exchanged a lot on the way he could bridge his real life activity to his second life, so after a few month, he came to me with that project for FrontRange for the Cebit. I was very excited because it was a real opportunity to create a business to business project in Second Life on an audience that we could "drag" to Second Life. It was challenging also because they really wanted to measure the influence of such a project to be able to project a development later for FrontRange but also for their other clients. On the whole operation, we had daily contacts and I really enjoyed to work with Kigh who brought a lot of precisions and enhancement to the whole project since he also has a good experience of SL. I learnt a lot by making this project and I am really happy of the work we achieved it together. I am grateful I had this chance to have met Kigh and that he chose me to accomplish this project in Second Life. It was my really second corporate project in Second Life and a production which I am very proud of in my portfolio.
