Inspiration

Based on the need from the client, our team is dedicated to creating a comprehensive platform called "Slackaloom" that will enable Slalom to run a successful marketing campaign. Our goal is to design a solution that will make it easier for Slalom's clients to click on the cute image on Slack and navigate seamlessly to our webpage. Once there, they will be presented with a range of task studies linked directly to Slalom's website. By providing this platform, we aim to increase engagement with Slalom's brand and drive traffic to their website. Our team is committed to delivering a solution that is user-friendly, intuitive, and optimized for maximum performance, ensuring that Slalom's marketing campaign is a success.

What it does

Once the client joins the server on Slack, they will receive a message containing four cute categories, each linked to our website's different case studies. Our website has been designed to help clients categorize their interests by choosing an image that resonates with them the most. By doing so, they will be directed to the case study that best connects with their interests, helping them to understand Slalom better. By utilizing this platform, clients will be able to make informed decisions about how Slalom can help them achieve their goals, ultimately strengthening their relationship with Slalom.

How we built it

To build the platform for Slalom's marketing campaign, our team utilized a combination of JavaScript and Slack Block Kit to create the four images. We designed the images to be visually appealing and easy to categorize for the clients. We then used Python and Slack to build the website, making sure that it was intuitive, easy to navigate, and integrated seamlessly with Slack. By utilizing these technologies, our team was able to create a cutting-edge solution that will drive engagement and enhance the client experience.

Despite these challenges, our team remained committed to delivering a high-quality platform that would meet Slalom's needs. Through perseverance and hard work, we were able to overcome these obstacles and build a platform that we are proud of.
