 |
|
| How is it with 21,550 members that the points store doesn't clear out quickly? I've already placed in orders for 4 different items. Just a thought... |

Not everything is popular. I had an idea about that. What if NRT ran ads on Twitter saying (e.g.):
| Quote: | Hey NRTeam members? We have FIVE Joe C C Emmer (  ) CDs in our Points Store for 100 points each! Come get one! |

| A banner ad like that could work. That or send out mass emails to all the members. I know some items aren't as popular, but you might be able to do a two-for-one deal. You know, you combine to items that are good, but not so popular to get people to "purchase" them. I've seen companies do the same thing to clear of inventory. |

I think a lot of people that join don't stay to accumulate points. One of the big ways NRT attracts visitors is with the album previews. And I think a lot of those people don't come back after listening to a band's album preview. |

Unfortunately. I'd like to see a revised population number of just anyone who's contributed to the site within the last month. |

Yeah, I think that would be interesting to see. I wish more people would get involved. I'm still new, but I can't believe I didn't know about it before! NRT is such a great site! |

Also I think the store is pretty much updated either when we get new items or when there have been alot of items we are out of, so half of the item you see on there may already be sold out and it just has not been updated.
Personally I think a two for one deal special for a day or something could be cool. As far as ads, I think that's taking it in the wrong direction. I think just telling people of new items gets alot more orders than ads would for an old item. Also if we do ads that, the 1 item you were saving up for might be sold out. Just something to think about.
Anyway I'm glad to see some people are thinking about new things for us to do and are contribution  Keep it up! |

I haven't placed an order yet. I'm holding out until they get something I like. It's bound to happen sooner or later and I want to make sure I don't settle for something just to spend points. As long as they just sit in my account until I use em, I'll just keep savin em until something great comes out!
Speaking of which, will the CD section of the store be updated anytime soon? |

Ok, I understood you were talking about what was popular, not things we have 300+ of. in that case maybe make a bag or box deal where you buy it for x points and you get 10-20 random items we have a surplus of. I think that'd work. |
