About Dotline ناسنامەی کۆمپانیایی

ئەم سیستەمە ناسنامەیە دەستی پێکردووە بە دروستکردنی پێکهاتەیەکی بازرگانی گشتگیر و ڕوانگەی کۆمپانیا - Social Heroes بۆ ئیلهامبەخشین بە ڕوانگەی کۆمپانیایەک بۆ موشتەریەکانیان، کارمەندان و کاندیدەکان، و هەموو کەسانی پەیوەندیدار لە پیشەسازییەکەدا. Dotline هەموو ئەو کارمەندانە وەک پاڵەوان دەبینێت کە دێن بۆ یارمەتیدان لە ژیانی ڕۆژانەی کەسێکدا. لۆگۆکە هێمایەکی گرافیکییە بۆ پاڵەوانێک کە کەوایەک هەڵدەوەشێنێتەوە و بەرەو پێشەوە دەڕوات، کە لە پیتەکانەوە دیزاین کراوە، D لە "dots" + L لە "line." لەبەر ئەوەی Dotline ٧ جۆری بازرگانی دابین دەکات، لۆگۆکان بە سیستەمی ڕەنگی ٧ ڕەنگ دێن کە هەر جۆرێکی بازرگانی دەگەیەنێت و بە فۆنتی ئەسڵی براندەکە نووسراوە.
