YouSuggest – Social Suggestion Box for Brands
If you are a brand, you cannot ignore your users anymore. You need to reach out to them, collect fee
dback from them and most importantly, collect fresh ideas from people.
YouSuggest is a Delhi based startup that enables brands to collect social suggestions/ideas from users (crowdsourcing of ideas) – the platform is delivered as SaaS platform and offers services like private/public forums etc at a price range of $19 — $599/month.
While the idea seems good, YouSuggest needs to go beyond Digg styled voting – companies are going beyond DIgg-styled forums to collect ideas. Major brands have already embraced twitter and a simple ‘I want this feature’ needs to be replaced by bringing in more product attributes that users can collectively define.
Qns for brands – wouldn’t you like to host a page like this on your own site (or maybe, getsatisfaction?)

hey thanks Ashish for your coverage. We do have integration with twitter and other collaterals. Its just that we emphasized on the core features more, and cut the noise as much as possible.
A good example to look at what YouSuggest could mean to brands & organizations is http://dellideastorm.com : a collective feedback model for customers of Dell laptops!
