How can you offer unlimited designs at $467/month? That seems very cheap. It doesn't take much for that to be negative margin right? What am I missing?

- quickthrower2 6y agoProlly a limit on how quick it is done therefore a real limit on designs per month. A bit like “unlimited” shared hosting plans.
- partyboat1586 6y agoMakes sense. Seems a bit like false advertising. Unlimited requests in this context doesn't really tell you how many design hours you are buying.
- skinnymuch 6y agoUnlimited isn’t possible because of how time and limits works, right? Is there ever an opportunity to market as unlimited without it being false?
- partyboat1586 6y agoUnlimited can be used honestly when it's practically impossible to reach the limit. For example if you are offering unlimited drink refills at a restaurant that is fair advertising because it's really unlikely your whole supply of soda syrup will be drained. In this case it's clearly not viable because someone could easily hit a limit for design requests where it's just not possible to fulfil them on the budget. ~$500 is nothing like a months worth of unlimited design requests even if you only make a few requests per day.
- wmeredith 6y agoYou're missing the conflict at the core of this business model. It motivates the provider to take as long as possible without souring the business relationship, because the faster they work, the less they're getting paid. So the unlimited part is basically marketing BS.
- phailhaus 6y agoDid you look at the site at all? He clearly advertises a 48 hour average turnaround time.
- XCSme 6y agoIt's more like subscribing to a $467/month plan were you can request several designs per month. It's not unlimited, it's limited by time, the longer a request takes, the less requests you can make per month.
