I love Envato, because they really care for their fellow Buyers and Authors.
I love Envato, because they really listen to their fellow members’ useful opinions
I love Envato, because they never go offline
I love Envato, because they launch bundles only twice a year
I love Envato, because they know there are many Authors making their living with earnings from their marketplaces

“We’re happy little Vegemites
As bright as bright can be.
We all enjoy our Vegemite
For breakfast, lunch, and tea.
Our mummies say we’re growing stronger
Every single week,
Because we love our Vegemite
We all adore our Vegemite
It puts a rose in every cheek.”

Good news, congrats!

We don’t need to go to a discount route to promote marketplaces.

Why not promote an entire category through header bar? We never done that experiment so far for a normal category – only the bundles deserve that? Envato’s logic is simple, exploit the header bar exposure only for quick money schemes like bundle – never used the same for promoting a new category etc.

Wonderful idea.

@gbs – we’re watching for any effect against normal sales very closely. The theory going into this is that these types of promotions will increase normal sales as it builds awareness around certain categories. Getting away from header bar promos should help on that front too. Looking to mainly promote via email/banners/affiliates/partners/social

So Envato has ways to measure drop in sales. Just wondering:

How do you measure whether newly uploaded items (recent 2 weeks) are affected or not due to bundles?

It is simple – just don’t care the state of individual new items! Problem solved!

PAN’S LABYRINTH – Lullaby – Javier Navarrete
THE PIANO – Sacrifice – Michael Nyman
THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS – Promentory – Trevor Jones / Dougie MacLean

True Masterpieces…

This one is stated many times by fellow authors..:
There must be other ways to promote marketplaces.
The prices are already incredibly cheap considering the quality of items.
