The Southern Charms Fan Box

So I know I have been on and off of Charms for a few years now, not nearly as long as some, but I was wondering if anyone remembers when we had individual picture set sales. I thought they were a good idea and I used to get quite a lot of individual sales.

I know that the guys lost the feature or how it worked. But was wondering if anyone else misses them?

Or does anyone have any ideas of other ways to increase income, such as Super HD quality photos at a higher price, priced individually or could it be done like through the Video Sales etc?

Or what about making certain sets only available individually through something like the Video Sales etc, loyal members would buy them I am sure.

I am not trying to price anyone out of the market, just wondering if this would be an option.

Any thoughts?

I too miss the days on the individual sets for sale. I would have to think they were not as popular as I thought they were. Or that it made book keeping issues. Book keeping trouble will shutter any good venture. I would love to see charms with a massive history of sets, have a best of. Put them like the videos in a separate section. Let's use Raven for example. Raven the best of set 1, from 1 to 75, set 2, from 76 to 150 and so on. 100 photos in each set, for say $ 10.99, or what ever is fair to the charm.

The individual sets were nice, it was a good way to preview some of the private pics without joining... although usually when ever I did buy one set, that would lead me to getting at least a 1 month membership to that charmm's site...

Then if buying a single set, led Martinae and others to buy memberships, the single sets were working. I have also thought about this, offering through the forum, a Charms Fan Club. Cost to those who join, say $19.99 a year. Which would give you a years membership and 15% off any memberships and videos. This would increase to half price on your birthday for the day. Each member would get a birthday greeting from a special charm, as well as holiday greetings on Easter Christmas, New years and Thanksgiving. I know I would snap up an offer like that. My only concern is would it be fair to the charms.

Membership to what for 19? 1 charms site? not very profitable for the charm since it's just a few bucks less than a months membership. I know where are you coming from and if we had an option to offer a fan club page and post just a few sets for you to view. Just not sure how SC would be able to give us access to manage that.

I think he's saying a membership to the fanbox. Meaning that guys who paid the $19.99 would get discounts on charm site memberships and personal emails to them from charms.

Thank you Serena, you said it much better than I did. I was just thinking outside the box, maybe too far outside. I know I would gladly pay 24.99 or 29.99 for such an offer.

I personally think it's a GREAT idea!

SC is always looking for more ways to improve the site

I think my original idea has been lost here.

What I was thinking was offering custom picture sets in the same way as through the video sales, such as HD content or custom picture sets. A download basically but individually priced.

I can not quite fathom what the alternative idea really is.

I really enjoyed the individual set sales.

And I love your idea, lovely Raven.

I too have missed this feature! I can't afford to subscribe to all of the charms I would like to, and the photo sets allowed some variety between cycling memberships.

I liked the set sales also. Maybe SC will bring it back.

I liked the photo set sales too! I miss having them.

Before my time here, but I love the idea!

It does sound like there is a bit of a call for such individual sets, I hope they bring them back at some point

Yes I do! I was wondering what happened to that option...it sounds like its just not available with the new site right?

No new site. SC revamped and is continuing to revamp the current site. I believe there was some type of issue with the individual photo sets, but not sure.

I agree, the picture sets benefited my end of the month totals.

I really liked the individual photo also. I ended up with getting a few long term members from them.
