captkirk Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 Hi Fellow MC Members and Guests, Tommie Kirkland (Captkirk) here... Do you prefer to promote Free sites that have the option to upgrade or Paid only sites? For me, I prefer to promote free site with the option to upgrade. Why? Because you can get more people to try a free site than you can a paid only site. Now, the site has to really be free and the members can use it as long as they like without upgrading. If the members feel that they need or want more features and benefits they have the option to upgrade. I like FREE programs that is a Win, Win and Win for everyone rather they upgrade or not. Do you prefer to promote Free sites that have the option to upgrade or Paid only sites? - Why? Quote Tommie Kirkland (Captkirk) Here...

Darren Olander Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 If I'm promoting an advertising resource, such as TE or Safelist, it has to have a free membership... I'm not interested in the paid only ones.If it comes down to opportunities, I expect them to be paid.

DrMillionaire Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 I prefer the free sites with the option to upgrade. Also, I prefer those sites that offer affiliate options that allow me the opportunity to earn commissions. I then use the commissions earned from the program to pay for my upgrades.

Kevin J Timothy Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 Though I can appreciate the screening tactics you can use from paid sites, I prefer the free offers. Trials seem to work well, and corporations have been doing this for decades. A potential customer does not want to feel cornered into ANY deal. I speak from experience: Google Play, Spotify, Amazon Prime, Netflix, Quickbooks Self-Employed, etc... I almost ALWAYS wanted to test the aforementioned services before purchasing. The customer wants the peace of mind knowing that they can "test drive" the new car. I hate to say it but our culture is uncomfortable with commitment. Quote I get super high on this tree!

Free trials are an excellent way to get new customers. Quote Founder of Marketing CheckpointMy Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpsmith Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 I dislike the trial membership site for only one reason, eventually they try to force you to upgrade to continue using their services. I have seen enough of these sites that offer a trial membership, but it is not really long enough to determine whether it would be worth the money. On the other hand, free sites that offer a upgrade have to likewise prove it would be worth the money. My main issue with the latter is that some sites that have free memberships make it so that you are forced to upgrade to get anywhere. There are some relaunched sites that started out as I have described. I tried them and ditched them, never to go back. Quote Free Video Chat Service! Get Connected And Stay Connected!Click Here!

stv77 Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 I agree with you rpsmith. Some sites, for example free mailers, autoresponders were forced me to upgrade membership. Some of them did not accept me as a free member, even though it was written they accept free members. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
market101 Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 I use free and paid sites. I always start for free when possible and upgrade later if I like the site.

captkirk Posted June 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 To date, I still prefer to promote free sites with the option to upgrade. I also promote paid sites but I don't have the same success that I have promoting free sites with the option to upgrade. Quote Tommie Kirkland (Captkirk) Here...
