Do we need a package service?

[Ravenfreak]

I know it's pretty common for promotional forums to have a package service. I was wondering if Zippy Promotion needs this service as well? I'd like to hear your feedback! I wanted to do things a little differently here but if you all think we should offer packages I will get to work on hiring some staff once this place is booming! I know some places didn't have a service team right from the beginning.

When you provide a useful service, at a low cost or free, people are going to talk about it. That can give you some free promotion and backlinks. Which is very good in many aspects.

Could be a good idea to offer.

I think I will add a package service in the future for sure. For now I think it's on the back burner.

I think it can be real tough trying to find staff for a package service. :/

When I was PTL at FP it was a struggle trying to get staff.

If you can get the people to commit to it, then yes, I think a package service would be wise on a promotional site. It's what brings a lot of people in, I think.

Yeah it can be tough that's for sure, especially since I can't offer real money for staff unfortunately. :\ Thank you everyone for your feedback so far. I'm still on the fence lol, half of me wants to start looking for staff (which I need to at least find another admin and moderator at the very least soon) but the other half is saying "just wait a little bit."

The thing I find with posting packages, (As a user) is in order to get around 10 posts on your forum, you need to posts hundreds in order to afford it xD

200 credits for 10 posts! What a steal! ...meanwhile, they pay 1 credit per post...


I mean, it's great deal for the forum that offers it xD
