site sales and impulse buying

[basschick]

yesterday i heard from a surfer. he had questions about man of muscle. he said he had been tricked by tours before and wanted to know:

1. do we use DRM?
2. how many total models did we have
3. how many total shoots did we have
4. what size were the pics
5. were the pics downloadable

i wrote and answered his questions. i didn't actually even KNOW how many models we had on the site till i counted them for him *LOL* he wrote and thanked me and says he plans to join this weekend.

whether he joins or not, i have been hearing this kind of questions from more and more surfers, a bunch of whom joined after i wrote them back. i'm not sure if it's the specific type of site i have or if more and more surfers have had bad experiences and are hoping i'll be honest with them.

is anyone else getting emails like this from potential members - and if so, are any of them joining your site after you respond?

I usually get emails from surfers asking if our videos are downloadable. It is funny because it is posted all over the tour and even if video previews but they still ask. I have seen most of them join after I tell them they are. Another one I get is what formats our videos are avaliable in which is the same thing all over the site but they ask anyway. I would say over 90% join after I answer these specific questions. I hope that helps.

as several have explained to me, the site tours say one thing but the member areas are something else. i've seen a LOT of tours that claim to have downloadable videos that don't have 'em.

the surfers wondering about formats can't go wrong in your sites - you have all the popular video formats

I use to get questions are the videos downloadable

Now I get asked if they are DRM protected.

I feel the DRM is an issue that makes many not join.

Even on my link list I get asked that question about sites I adverstise.

Well if you ask me the fact this guy has to worry so much about this stuff on a site that is 14.95-19.95 tells me he’s just a content sucker “or what ever you guys want to call it” I mean come on you can not get a meal at jack-in the box for that now days, these people have really got to get real. If you are that worried about 20$ that you have to e-mail someone before joining maybe you should not join and spend that time getting a really job. How spoiled are these people getting, or really how worthless do they think what we offer is. Again I think it our fault we try to give them a really good deal, and offer all kinds of content at rock bottom prices and the lower the prices and more content we offer the more worthless many take it to be. I do think with my new site for a few weeks at least I will try charging 34.95 with-out any trials to see how it works. I have seen allot of sites that do that now, maybe if I say my stuff has more value they will believe it, or at least this way I can make more. :penny:

max, do you ever know anything you talk about or do you only guess randomly?

i have had a bunch of such guys join, and not one uses a site sucker - i DO have server stats, you know. most rebill as well. they're not worried about the money and most have joined many sites without getting what they want. they just get tired of joining sites and not having the promised features.

if i went to several resturants that promised me vegetarian soup and non fat soft serve and didn't get it, you bet your ass i would call new resturants i was considering going to before i went there. what is the point of not getting what you want - whether it's $5 or $5000?
