Problem/Motivation

It is currently possible for non-technical users to create sites for clients using proprietary products like Wix and Squarespace. And self-service users will want to launch Drupal from the drupal.org home page rather than purchasing a subscription from a white-label storefront. We need to explain to users how Drupal adds value to their services and how they can add value beyond what clients could get from a self-service product.

Proposed resolution

Value of Drupal

  • Drupal has value because control is in the hands of users.
  • The Starshot road map and marketing materials show the benefits users can expect if they stay with Drupal.
  • They may be non-technical users now, but as their skills grow, Drupal will grow with them.

Value that can be added by a storefront

  • Content creation service.
  • Personal training and support.
  • Customized flavors of Drupal product.
  • Uptime guarantees.
  • Accessibility guarantees.
  • Site monitoring.

Remaining tasks

Build a step-by-step business plan.
