Surprised Joeboy or Gus weren’t on this ?

Any news worthy story. Good things to watch at the Cinema, Theatre, on TV or have you read a good book lately?

An incentive for small co-operative members (of which some doubtless work for big names) to badger (with a ripple £ introductory thank you incentive scheme) ..our accountants were busy looking at their portfolios as well as the company in general, so, on the days I wasn't flicking a door open with my foot a chat with the accountants was always on the cards as to kit cost, does dept a really need this do you think, etc, they would have been open (as would marketing) to options on ripple from all angles.

If big names are coming on board with ripple that is an advertising & PR gem for both sides, a "powered by ripple" logo on a brand website, a commitment to keep on clocking up more, ..good marketing vehicle, no harder than getting fair trade product options on our free vend coffee machines & involving folk in the snack choices, employees are increasingly ones to nudge a firm, because they already have a foot in the door & talk the same language.

Under utilised & a feel good factor of enabling change.

Tesla referrals are back I see, didn't do them any harm 8-)
With regards to "I mean proactively advertise set cost slots", I'm not sure what you mean, if you mean "mini PPAs" to retail investors well thats going to take as long as raising equity finance and probably the FCA would not allow it anyway, hence the borrowing and fill it with large PPAs.

Ripple have pretty much tried much of what you are saying.

They offer small equity packages via the Coop to the public and small businesses, they offer larger (£100k+) equity investment packages to anyone who would be non Coop partners who are known as Co-Investors. Any shortfall is then funded by debt which is paid for by PPA's.

Ripple have also attempted with little or no success to temp large companies to offer share purchase schemes via salary sacrifice to their employees similar to the cycle to work scheme. Maybe with a few successful projects under their belt, this might gain some traction but I would think they would really need some tax incentive (like the cycle to work scheme) for it to work.
