Yeah, it is difficult to start any marketplace. A chicken or the egg problem. I was hoping that by releasing early I could get some sellers on board. It's considerably harder to get a designer to create a work to sell on a marketplace that isn't even launched yet or validated by buyers. However, I've made a couple sales (literally, 2) and hopefully I will get more, enough to attract the sellers.
I have emailed a few handpicked designers already so I will see what the response is. :)
- vineet 15y agoOffering to convert themes for free to the first few designers (and just give them money per sale) might help you get out of the chicken/egg problem. Best of luck with it.
- coderdude 15y agoThanks for the idea, I'll certainly take it into consideration. I could see that being the 'tipping point' for many sellers since they wouldn't have to do the work.
