Trial Access

[Dianna Vesta]

Recently I began several promotions using various pricing structures. We brought back the 3 day trial at 2.95 and signups did increase. I’m noticing the same thing that happened before when we offered the trial. We get a collection of guys who join, download a bunch of stuff, cancel and then come back in a few months for another trial.

I wondered if anyone has tried this and I’d love to know your thoughts on it.

I’d like to create a directory that is simple domain.com/trial/ but with it’s own sign-up. It gives them a chance to sample the area, adult files and video, etc. and somehow they would still automatically bill after the fourth day or anytime in the trail area they can join at full price. I’m not 100% clear on how I’ll do this but I’m sure I’ll figure it out.

I guess I could limit bandwidth too for users per day?

Any ideas on this?

BTW: I am retaining which is good. For every 10 trials at least 8 stay on.
