Problem to make personal sales

Discussion started by mrnecturus

Hey guys.

Traditionally I am making 50% sales 3 times in year in every markets I am taking part in.

But I really have a problem to make sales here.

Several days ago I did chat with one of you, and asked him about you price reduce\increase tool I can use. I asked, if reduced price it will be seen as sale not like new price. So people will pay attention it is a sale. And was answered "yes".

But when I used it today I didn't noticed this. I see only new price. And people will see it as well and will think it is normal price. There is no any notification about sale, like on my site for instance: http://mr-necturus.com/store/

More then that. On main page not all products shown with new price. Some of them show it only if one open individual product page.

All this make sales here useless. And even it may harm. When I returned old prices people may ask me, why I increased it, when they just wanted to purchase.

I made post about sales on the forum. https://www.cgtrader.com/forum/topics/50-sale-at-mister-necturus-started

But very few people looking on forums here. Have you any ideas how to make sales really useful tool, like on other makers?

Thanks.

You are selling too low! I think that is the biggest problem. I noticed that the best range for selling models on Cgtrader is between 15 to 40 dollars per model. If you sell lower people think there is something wrong with your models especially when they try selling models that are amazing like yours. If you sell too high then only the top tier of buyers can afford to buy your models... Most indie, students or other small time buyers will be able to buy things in the range I suggested so don't put your prices so low.

Tools which show to potential buyer it is a sale going on here. Like on my site. Or like those which show official CG-trader sales.

I think CG-trader have potential. They can became big and strong, if they use experience of new markets like Unity Store and will not stick to busyness model of dying empires like Turbosquid. :) Now I have fillings that they built something, and think: He-ho! Now we will make money, lets wait for and spend our live enjoying good food and sex. All will come automatically without any effort. :)

Hi Alexander,

The *official* sales or the cut pricing shown on models marked with *$* icon let's customers know on which assets they can spend their credits, and on which of them they can't.

Designers choose to participate in CLD program or off sales freely themselves. They can also choose whenever they want to participate in a sale or if they don't.

Now, having everyone suggest, add, remove or change their discounts whenever they want to could be tricky from the customer's side - if you take yourself through ecommerce websites, would you prefer clear discounts with defined rules and advantages that you get, or would you rather go through a number of randomized discounts trying to figure out which one is which - and why some of them work, and others don't work.

I'm sorry you feel like this is an inconvenient way for you to strategize your own campaigns - although you could try opting-in the sales program and possibly make a custom request to our support team - they would probably be able to adjust the discounts to your needs, but I still have to say they would still have to comply - and end - when our off sale ends.

O.K. Lets try. I will return prices to normal 100% now. And I want your team will help me setup 50% discount until 25 of April. Of course I want to have mark on my products which clear show it is discount, and prices before and after it. Is it possible? To what mail I need to write letter? Such collaboration I have in Unreal Market and it will satisfies me, sure. https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/profile/mr.Necturus
