These are the ideas we've come up with thus far:
Basically we want a blog with a calendar on it.
The calendar will show all the events of the month with links to descriptions of the events which are more indepth write ups, include the flyer etc.
the blog is to document what goes on at the space. Documentation is important so we have evidence of the work we do here, show recaps, upcoming work shops & recaps of work shops, and lots of photos and maybe videos.
This documentation is hella important for when we are applying for grants in the future.
Website main page should include links to our, email news letter, Patreon page, prominently displayed with the info that $25 a month gets you into all music events for free.
There should be another section of the website that's specific to the Gift Shop / Art Store and contain artist statements from everyone who has work for sale in the store, as well as some photographs of their wares on display.
Ideally, we could integrate an online store functionality for people to order BAD benefit show cassette tapes, BAD pins and stickers. This online store functionality should be able to accomodate a lot of listings, so that if someone were motivated to list their wares online for sale thru our website that is possible for them to do so.
We need to get a credit card reader and tablet or cell phone for point of sale instore and digital inventory of what we have for sale. This tablet / cell phone will also have all our social media accounts logged in on it so any volunteer can do social media while at our physical location.
