HI! I'm 3/4 of the way through my ciw course and i'm feeling more confident in offering my skills. I wasn't going to officially start doing business until sept but i need some quick cash. I have a few questions to ask of DP members. I've been watching the template sales here closely,and its hard to tell sometimes what a template is sold for(when a sale is closed privately).. I'm wondering those that offer templates in the $90+ range do you ever actually reach close to that amount? I know this would vary member to member..I'm just trying to figure out what the strong template "genre's" sell better than others and if the members here actually get close to their BIN's on a regular basis. I guess i mean(forgive me i'm tired) If you set a BIN(non auction) do you sell less? or is it much of a muchness between auctions and general sale? Would be easy enough to raise about $800U.S. selling about say 11 templates unique for around $70U.S. ? Do uncoded templates vs coded sell quicker or slower are they cheaper vs more expensive? and hopfully i haven't confused the crap outta everyone(its really really late..I should be heading to bed).. anyway 1 more questions.. i know many of you use paypal. Here in australia there is a similar service called paymate.com.au actually from what i've read its a sister company(aka like ebay) ..there is "paymate express" which i'm sure paypal has the exact same thing. If i offered that as a payment method,would you as a customer here on DP ignore my listing on that basis,or would you still be happy to do business with me,no matter the payment method? I would provide the link to payment page and the payment details. Thanks for any help, arcanus
I can't comment on the template side of things, but I think you may have more luck selling if you can take either Paypal or Moneybookers - they seem to be the most popular payment methods on DP. I know when I'm buying I like to use money that's already in my Paypal account, not have to cash that out, wait for it to clear into a bank account, then use that to pay via a different payment method to normal.
