Asia – Are you ready for Rankable?

Asia has traditionally practised a high context culture and its people tend to keep their opinions amongst close ones or to themselves. There is an unspoken fear of not being able to conform within their groups or societies.

This barrier to voicing own point of view was weaken with the rise of charismatic, opinionated influencers as social media came into play. People looked up to these influencers, followed their beliefs and secretly wished they had the power to sway public views.

Today, we have evolved to the stage where we can at times agree to disagree with these influencers. We are no longer just followers. We are not afraid to make our individual opinions known but are we ready to contribute responsibly to crowd wisdom?

If your answer is yes. You are ready for Rankable!

What is Rankable about?

Quote Rankable ‘We are all about crowdsourcing info, ideas & opinions. From bands to bridal magazines, restaurants to rock formations, movies to magic tricks. You rank things, we keep score.’

The BIG idea behind is for any normal twitter user to share his / her personal score on products, services, organizations, groups or anything under the sun that they encountered in their everyday life. Their score will go towards creating a consolidated, average score for public reference.

Start Ranking in 3 Simple Steps!

The guys behind Rankable has made it really easy for us.

If I want to rank Haji Lane in Singapore, I will simply tweet “I love visiting #hajilane in Singapore #rankable 8/10”. 

To check the scores of your subject you can just search for it at Rankable. But do give at least 2 minutes for your tweet to be registered in the system.

Your Poll Counts! 

Rankable has also created a web based widget that makes it super easy for anyone to organize polls on any subject of interest.

What’s in it for me?

By actively sharing your opinions on a particular brand, product or service, consumers are now able to have a good gauge of the subject matter based on its public sentiments.

Similarly, the ranked subject can also use the information to understand where they currently stand and strive to improve their ranking.

How is Rankable relevant to my city?

Rankable works for any hashtag and it’s not just for brands. You can use it on movie, local restaurants, books, places, the list is endless. Although geo-tagging is yet to be available, users can include location via hashtags (ie #CokeSingapore, #MacDonaldsGrandIndo, #StarbucksHCMC)
