ASP Global - Current

Speaker 1: Morning. You're muted if you're talking to me.

Speaker 2: There we go. Did y' all do anything exciting over the weekend?

Speaker 1: I did puzzles in red.

Speaker 2: Did you see the link that I sent you for the puzzle?

Speaker 1: I did. I haven't looked at it though.

Speaker 2: So.

Speaker 1: Cool.

Speaker 2: It's so freaking.

Speaker 1: Good morning.

Speaker 2: Good morning.

Speaker 1: How's it going? Happy Tuesday. I know, it's weird.

Speaker 2: Yes. Sorry. Sitting. Sorry about that.

Speaker 1: How was the break for everybody?

Speaker 2: It was very relaxing. My wife and I did very little, but basically every day this week we have stuff in the evenings planned. So we went from like doing nothing to every night this week we have stuff. So be a little bit of a gauntlet, but that's okay. We got a new Nintendo Switch yesterday and that's also exciting. So.

Speaker 1: What do you do? You just sleep all weekend? I went up to see my friend. I'm currently in SF right now visiting friends. Oh, cool. So I went up to Berkeley area to see my family friend that I haven't been seeing since 2022. Oh, wow. Yeah. What about you, Tom? Oh, we rained here all weekend, so I. I always. I like to take my girls on like, urban hikes on Saturday. So we did that. So we went out for breakfast into the library and Barnes and Noble, which is very exciting for the like under 12 crowd. Like, they love Barnes and Noble. So we did that and had lunch and I think there was a birthday party somewhere in there. And my. My. My daughter. My older daughter is. Are you waiting for Parker, by the way? Because otherwise I can dive in. Oh, yeah, he said he won't be able to make it today. Okay. Maybe he's traveling, but yeah, I'll let him know what we said in the meeting today, so. Cool. Well, I'll finish my. My story. My daughter's. My older daughter's best friend has a little sister who's in. My little ones is the same age as. And while my older daughter can spend hours upon hours with the older sister, my little one has like a 97 minute limit with the younger sister. So, like, they always ask for play dates, but at 97 minutes, Ainsley's like, get her out of here. When's leaving. So fortunately, her friend, not her 97 minute friend, also likes puzzles. So she. After Ainsley was done with her, she sat and worked on a puzzle with me and my husband. So I had a playdate with a nine year old on Saturday. Wow, that's so cute. Yeah, 97 minutes. You can almost set a clock to it. She's just like, no, it's like more than a traditional Disney movie, but less than a live action Disney movie. It's somewhere between a Goofy movie and Mighty Ducks. And she's just like, I'm done. I can't handle this kid.

Speaker 2: Those are great movies, too. Fantastic movies.

Speaker 1: Yeah. And it's. They're good for time estimates for playdates with Penny. Anyway, I like Penny. Penny's high energy, but, man, she wears out. Ainsley. Anyway. All right, so we'll keep this meeting kind of short since Parker's not here. And I think you're still you' content. Right on your end still. I know you got me some stuff on last week. Let me check in. Yeah, I submitted the page content. So the creator page, about page, homepage, and then the blog. So I think we want all the information that's on the current site to be on the new one for now. Okay, cool. So homepage content will just keep all the current. So I'm just going to make a note, other than that one area that you clicked out. Please remove. Meet our team. Okay, so I'm going to say all current content stays with the exception above. Chris, I'm going to assign this to you for now. Or do you want me to do the content for the homepage?

Speaker 2: I'll have you. I'll have you do the. The content population stuff.

Speaker 1: I'll update that. Same with the about page. Keep everything on the about page. Great. I'll assign that to me. The career page, all the content stays directing to Paycom. Great. And then list of the blogs that won't be coming up. Let's migrate all the blogs. Okay, Chris, I'm going to sign that one to you.

Speaker 2: Yep, that sounds good.

Speaker 1: So we have done. Chris has started styling the website, so he's gotten all the products exported. So I'm going to mark this yes, as well. Chris, do you want to showcase what we have so far? And then Bella just understands that. Now we'll go in and get the homepage and about page, career page content, as well as getting those blogs sent over as well.

Speaker 2: Yes. So here we have the homepage. Now you're going to see some things that are just not 100 done. I. E. The primo logo is rotating in a circle, but we have general color scheme that's been ported over. This is not your content at all that you put in for the homepage, but it's just stuff that we just dynamically pulled in for the time being just to kind of showcase blocks. Obviously, the little black border around here, that's not right either. But we do have some of this baseline content getting pulled in and then on the products page, which. This will not be the final layout, mind you, because ASP has a little bit more in terms of the categories and subcategories than Primo did. So this is not going to be the final style. But okay, it is all. It is all here. You can go and view any of these. And of course, I'm going to pick a random one. But they are all pulled in. They're all the images are pulled in from the ASP site. There weren't that many that. Oh, hey, I picked a random one that did have multiple. Hey. Heck.

Speaker 1: Yeah.

Speaker 2: It's like, I know what I'm doing. But it also pulls in all the data points. It'll have the contact form down here at the bottom as well, too. The actual form has not been built out, but that's global. One change there changes it across the board. So all of this stuff is in here and they are all categorized with their, like, parent and sub. Like their category and subcategory as well, too.

Speaker 1: Oh.

Speaker 2: So, yeah, so that's all in there. And so once once we have your content, Don will go in and actually populate that, just like you do with the Primo site. We'll adjust kind of. We're probably going to stick with this core layout here. Just have things be more. It's all not going to be all capital letters, mind you.

Speaker 1: Yeah.

Speaker 2: But have more of these rather than them being visible at all times, have them actually be toggleable. So showing all the main categories and probably not as much spacing the Primo. So I could get away with it. Asp, not so much. So probably more of like your standard list with bullet points going down the side for all the parent categories. And then if you click on one of them, it will then kind of expand the ones that are underneath. It will expand below it. So we kind of keep the same general idea, but the. The design of it will change. So it'll be a little bit easier to manage from a video.

Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. Yeah, I agree with the menu design because right now it's like too long.

Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1: Can you click into just one? Can you actually find. What is it? Stethoscopes? Is that what I'm thinking of? Yeah. Let's go in there. Can you click on. Let's go with Bella. Do you remember which one has, like, multiple SKUs? I don't. I'm not sure. Try to click on a cup. That one looks like it would have the yellow one. Click at the yellow one. Yeah, scroll down. Perfect. So all of the SKUs are also all listed right underneath, as we've discussed. Chris, the other follow up is that Parker really wants to have filterability because of the. Or not filter. Really searchability because of how many SKUs they have. We want to be able to search by the product num. Like by this. By the item number. Very similar to what we have on like Smitty Belt or Pro Compute, where you just type in the product number and it pulls up that product. Can you discuss the feasibility of that within the scope of the project or is that like fully out of scope? Because they have 2,000 products. They want people to be able to find specific ones if necessary.

Speaker 2: Let me. So when I pulled this in, there were 200 products, not 2,000.

Speaker 1: It's because of the SKUs, like the individual SKUs.

Speaker 2: Oh, so okay, so let me actually back up. So wanting to search by the SKU number that's listed inside here, inside this table of data, is that correct?

Speaker 1: Yeah, I understand. Yeah.

Speaker 2: Okay. That's going to be a bit more difficult within the scope of this. I thought that there was going to be one SKU number here at the product level and then like subs, like maybe the kind of like this right here. Like this is actually a good example that's kind of like your baseline SKU number, but then you have like suffixes to it basically.

Speaker 1: Yeah.

Speaker 2: Where if you knew what the product as a whole, if you knew what that SKU number was, you could then search by it. But if we're having to dive into here, that would be out of scope for this because this is not nearly. This is not as searchable. Because what my thought was each of the. You probably have seen like on testimonials and things like that, where there's like when you're on a page or a post, there's like custom fields you can dump data into. Specifically, we could add a, a single skew field to all the. In like the individual products, not all the sub products, but like the main like primary product. We could then surface that somewhere in this row to where then if you typed in that like parent level, that high level skewed number, we could then find abdominal binders. But doing that type of search in every single product and then looking at this table, you're not going to be able to find that. We have to think about how to architect that differently.

Speaker 1: Okay.

Speaker 2: I'm not opposed to thinking through that and what that would take. If you feel like that's going to be a product, a feature that's actually going to be used. I can put some thought behind on how that would actually. How we would need to go through all the different products, then surface these unique numbers. We would have to display this table differently as well, too. Yeah. There would be a couple of different levels to it. Is that something that Parker's, like, really wants to do and would be. Would be beneficial for me to spend some time thinking about how we could add that. Add that in as extra scope for.

Speaker 1: This, I think, because for now, if you go to the SPG site, they are able to search a specific item number in that search bar. So they want to. So if you go view product portfolio, if you put it. Any number. Yeah. Or if you search a number right in the search bar, it will. Yeah. Chris, go back.

Speaker 2: Hold on. The search bar here. Okay, hold on.

Speaker 1: Right there. Do you see this? Yeah.

Speaker 2: Yeah.

Speaker 1: Oh, you're just getting a product. Okay. So I think that's what they want to keep. For the new site to be able to. This was brought up. Oh, sorry. I mean, to interrupt you. This was brought up as well. So we would need it. We would. It would be a feature we would have to also add to the Primo site because I think that was another request that came in late in the game for Primo.

Speaker 2: Offhand, I don't know exactly how we want to do this. I need to. I would. I need to think about this, because I want to make sure that it's done in a. In a good way. Yeah. I won't be able to come up with a solution right now. I'll have to think about this for a little while.

Speaker 1: Yep. Sounds good. Just let us know if you need anything from us, and I can let Parker know that you're working on it.

Speaker 2: Cool. So those are the. Those are the two primary pieces that were done over the last couple of weeks. Getting the core kind of style embedded onto the ASP site, getting the products imported, and just getting a baseline homepage built out. Just so. Just kind of see how the colors are playing with one another offhand, other than the fact that, you know, we have the Primo logo here and the Primo logo moving around here does. Do the colorations and all that jazz feel. Feel good?

Speaker 1: Yeah. I was just gonna say because we were working on the branding. So I have two more blues that I can send you over, and you can play around with those two new blues because I know there were a lot of options for the original branding colors in there.

Speaker 2: So do the two new blues take place of these two blue colors, like this dark and this light blue? Are they. Are we swapping them or are we now going to have four different blue colors?

Speaker 1: So you. It's an like option to use the two new blues, but I think it will have a modern look on the overall ASPG site if you consider using those two new boosts. I can. Let me see if I have it with me.

Speaker 2: I do have a question for you.

Speaker 1: Yeah.

Speaker 2: With. With the two new colors, my recommendation would be to have, like, an actual, like, call to action color. So by adding in two new blues, we now have four different blue tinted colors. None of them are going to stand out. So my recommendation would be, like, for calls to action and things like that, we use a different color so that those calls to action actually stand out. That way we can. As people are scrolling down the page, they see that color and over time they're drawn to be like, oh, there's an action behind that thing. Would it be possible to take one of those other blue colors and just switch it to something that's different? That works well with the blue palette that we have here. Do we actually have a call to action color?

Speaker 1: Yeah, that sounds good. Okay, so should I send you the two new blues through email with the code and everything?

Speaker 2: Yeah.

Speaker 1: Okay.

Speaker 2: That way Don will have it and put it in the right places.

Speaker 1: Okay,.

Speaker 2: Awesome. That all sounds good. That's from everything on my end. That's what I have at the moment. Is there anything else that we need to go over today?

Speaker 1: That's all I had on my list as well. Bella, you got anything for us? Yeah, I think that's all for me. Is there anything that I should bring up to Parker? Ask him. We'll try to get you a quote on that search feature, and then we'll just need you to run that by him sometime this week. If we can get approval of it soon, then it can definitely be included in this and this first phase of development. I don't want to get too far towards content importing and all these other things and get the site really, really ready to go live and then hit a wall. So we'd love to be able to get that sooner than later. Chris, do you have that on your list to quote out? Okay, so Chris will get an estimate over to me. I'll send that over in my recap for today, and then I'll send that to Parker as well. But just follow up with him about that and then otherwise, I think we're good. Yeah. Okay. Thank you, guys. And by the way, Chris and Don, thank you so much for helping us for the email signature thing. You. It's really helpful.

Speaker 2: I haven't. I don't really understand why, but I have a knack for it. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't know. I don't know why it's weird. But, hey, it works. So.

Speaker 1: Yeah, it was awesome.

Speaker 2: Enjoy.

Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you. All right, then. Hope you guys will have a good week to this week.

Speaker 2: Yeah, you as well. Take care.

Speaker 1: Bye. Okay, bye. Bye.
