Artistic I will probably sell individual pieces interspersed with the big sets. I think it allows more versatility and is better for the (large) group of customers with lower budgets to work with. I'm not planning to price myself out from under the market, but I think it's not unreasonable to sell a single shirt or shoes for $7 or $8.
On the new site I may sell female breast fits separately for a low price. This way people who never use giant breasts don't have to download them, and those who do can actually get that support instead of having it omitted completely. (Don't worry, the male package bulges will be included no matter what.
)Given how much trouble I seem to be having coming up with something DAZ wants lately, I'm on the fence about whether to finish the ballet product with a tutu or just offer it on Rendo as Danseur (with no tutus, just the fancy shirt, leotard, tights and shoes).
Maybe I just need to go back to the categories I've done that they've liked. I've been thinking about a retail employee set, with polo shirt, khakis, apron and flat shoes. It would have texture options for the ever-present black pants/black shirt combo some chain restaurants use as well as the blue, red, yellow, etc. shirts that are familiar from other places.
The Retail employee set should go over well, I would think. If nothing else, it would be a way they could update the sets for Moonshine's into the present, and it would be fairly versatile.
You'd mentioned that you were looking at doing more period stuff to try to offer them. Has that not worked, then? (Did they decline the second ballet set they asked you to produce?)
Erm... Or I will call them both something very different, that will not get me sued.
I can understand the frustration at dealing with DAZ. I guess the question is, which makes the most commercial/business sense for you: trying one more time with DAZ, or using it as a product in your own store. And whether or not DAZ will be miffed that you didn't offer it to them first, since you seem to have started it at least partly in response to their input.
So far the only thing DAZ consistently want from me are enormous sets with elaborate shader texturing by Marieah, and I can't handle doing those on a regular basis. I about had a breakdown over the Business Suit (which has made the most money of any product I've ever done).
I know it's possible to sell a smaller product to DAZ (someone just published a single turtleneck there, even). I just don't know how, or what the rule is for what they do or don't want in a small product compared to a large one. I know what customers will buy 100 of at Rendo, but I don't know what they'll buy 300 of at DAZ.
By the by, apropos of absolutely nothing: the title of this journal post should totally be your motto for the new store! "Haven Digital: tenderly sculpting digital buttocks since (... whenever you started tenderly sculpting digital buttocks)".
Though I suppose it could give people entirely the wrong idea about what the site actually is...
Keeping it classy with SickleYield.
I haven't done any period things yet - any such thing is a massive project and would not be cost effective (time spent vs. money earned) at Renderosity. So I can't risk starting that until I'm sure I can do it in a way that DAZ will want.
And when I can't sell even a lesser product to DAZ, there's no point in wasting my time on something massive. The second ballet set is kind of in limbo as I try to decide whether it's worth offering them that either, or just releasing it as a danseur set elsewhere.
