The pricing looks like it's based on the idea that, since designers and agencies are earning boatloads of money anyway, taking just a tiny slice of that money shouldn't faze them, even if that tiny slice amounts to $100/month. I think you'll run into a lot of potential users who will question the fairness of paying that amount of money for what is in essence an image viewer, and refuse to buy even if they could easily afford it and clearly see its usefulness.
- marcamillion 16y agoThat criticism is very valid, and if I do find that happening - then I will definitely have to re-evaluate my value proposition. The main issue was that I know in my mind, what my revenue targets are - and I figure it might be easier/better to reach those with fewer users (mainly because it is just me right now, and I can't support TOO many users) and be better able to support those, than to try and get more users and everybody's support suffers. I also thought what would be fair for me to pay - in my previous jobs, for this service and that is reflected in the price. Had I been doing what I used to do, I would pay these rates. However, if the feedback is overwhelming that the price is too high, then I will definitely re-evaluate it. Thanks.
- bretthardin 16y agoI appreciate your candor about pricing. I am going through a similar problem and came to the same conclusions that you did. It would be interesting to see statistics regarding the prices that you charge and if you increase/decrease them. Also, when you do get paying customers, what percentage of customers are in each pricing plan.
