balacafa Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I think we should be able to offer discounts if somebody purchases more than 1 of the same thing.Such as buy: “Buy one, get the next one 10% off”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balacafa Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 I think that underlining helps to emphasise particularly important points better than highlighting and bolding do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homeestates Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 That doesn’t work for most people. I’m a writer and it doesn’t take me 10% less time to write a second piece for someone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somaginer1996 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 You can do that though, via custom order. Just include a note in your FAQ or something that says: “Hey, talk to me about bulk orders for a discount!”You can also do it with gig packages, by just lowering the price for higher word counts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be something that a seller could choose to implement if they wanted to encourage people to buy more of their product. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They usually buy through the gig itself (at least in my case). And gig packages only work to a certain extent as their are only 3 options and for many gigs (such as drawing) the other gig packages are needed for other things (e.g. increased complexity / colours). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somaginer1996 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I feel like if you already noted in the FAQ or gig description that buyers should contact you separately for bulk orders and they fail to do it, that’s kind of on them. In that case, you could just mention it with a delivery as someone to keep in mind for next time.But then again, it wouldn’t be a bad thing at all for them to not have taken that into account. What’s not to love about making more off of an order? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somaginer1996 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 It’s not that it wouldn’t be a nice feature to have. I suspect that not enough people want this badly enough as an option that they’d actually end up implementing it.You could do a poll in the forum to see how people respond? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balacafa Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 Should there be a two packages option for gigs instead of 1 or 3?Yes - there should be a two options choice.No - 1 and 3 are fine.0votersShow results 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For certain gigs you may only have two options for that gig and so you are forced to add a third option just to add the second one.This eliminates that issue. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madein5rr Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 😁 You could do that but then you may end up with a big company buying your expensive package and expecting really complicated and high quality work that’s worth that price.I think that serious buyers and companies must discuss all details before ordering expensive services. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balacafa Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 I think that serious buyers and companies must discuss all details before ordering expensive services.I agree that they should, but sometimes they don’t.

sasquatchiscool Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 It needs to have some fail safes in it. It needs tweaking.You should have “business hours” where you are allowed at least 8 hours that do not count.You should be able to put in vacation mode and it stops counting for the time you are gone. I mean seriously we are not allowed to take a cruise or be where there is no internet. Is that right?Some tweaking is in order. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h_freddy Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I need the 2 packs option so badly. Can’t overprice the third one since that’d be weird. Can’t also fill the third pack with silly details, Like “Don’t buy this!” or “No one’s home!”. That would look stupid. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hightlink Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I just use the old option, one pack + extras… it’s fine teh way it is now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
