I don't see any unique value proposition that offers me value. For those who understand what a 'premortem' is they might find it valuable but I cannot even begin to understand it nor do I find it necessary to invest time enough to find out because I don't understand its value. In the words of Clayton Christensen, what job is it accomplishing? When I walk by a restaurant that is new, I have no idea what the food might taste like but at least I know what value food offers. In this case, I don't even understand the value that 'premortems' offer.
So, I would offer the following suggestions:
1. Give a clear, one line explanation of what can be achieved with a 'premortem' (i.e. what job is getting done; more successful projects doesn't count as a tagline because it gives no explanation of what that means. You set X = 'Premortem' and Y = 'Successful project' but there is no explanation given of the correlation between X and Y.)
2. Give a clear demonstration of that being achieved with an example 'premortem' (i.e. how the job is done with your site)
3. Show pictures/screenshots of that being done (There is currently too much reading to be done on the site)
Once again the name is interesting enough to get me to write this explanation. Thus, there is at least minimal value in the name. I'm intrigued but purely by curiosity. The curiosity is simply a vessel waiting to be filled in order to create value.
I really did drop the ball on that, this is the second person to bring that up. I intended to record a video for the launch explaining it (Premortems in 60 seconds) but couldn't find a mic.
I think my favorite post explaining Premortems is on the iDoneThis blog: http://blog.idonethis.com/post/43078049631/the-perks-of-cons...
Again, thank you so much for your great feedback. I really appreciate the time you spent writing it up.
I only spent 3 days on the app so far, it's a weekend project for me, so I'll be making these changes soon (hopefully this coming weekend)
May want to trim off newrelic and google-analytics snooping scripts from your site then.
