First off, in general, thank you all for answering the questions. It's pretty crazy how much traffic the forum gets compared to what we see in posting activity. 400-500 people a day read, pretty wild huh?
DaHOF Easy enough, but I guess if the site explodes I may be grump without Apple Pay as an option, haha.
Gotchu homie, will work on ApplePay.
ckay If you guys decide to release more items, some tees & coins would be nice π
On a serious note, maybe some other βthrow inβ items like some stickers in different colors, tees, and other knack knacks that carry a higher margin that people may add to their cart.
You could also consider doing something like rolexforums does with an annual pledge for a nominal fee, and some sort of raffle throughout the year where you sell tickets to said pledge members. Items could be anything. Dozen balls, a hat, bundle of grips, cash cover, etc.
We are working really hard to make the product drop with tees and coins in it to be super special, I think it will be worth the wait.
The pledge raffle tickets/subscription fee is interesting for sure, we've just been hesitant and asking you guys for support.
dbenick3 It has been the first web page I check in the morning.
This means the world to us, thank you.
bigjohntripod I post enough bullshit, I feel like I need to pay for the amount of shit I say.
LOL, I feel like we should pay you for all the shit you post LOL
CKirsch It would be nice if the payment information would auto populate as I had to type it all in and was worried Iβd lose out on one of the 4 items I bought.
mljones99 I'm just glad to support a website that I truly enjoy with what seems to be a great group of folks that I'd love to eventually meet and play golf with.
Love this, thank you.
KDBeach Anyone else have the release day jitters yesterday? π€£
We sure as hell did, hoping nothing would break LOL.
TFixer5 I would use like a hat that suits my style, polo, pullover, etc.
Apparel is really tricky, but we are looking into it.
aharrelson358 With the forum being so small and there being a cohort of pretty dedicated initial members, a subscription/dues program that's limited in the future enrollment could be a really cool setup. It would give you guys some capital to work with, as well as give the folks (looking at you, @bigjohntripod haha) who are interested in the wellbeing of the forum a way to always have access to the items if future membership grows substantially. Maybe even have a design suggestion/voting process for future releases with that group.
We like this idea as well, something for OG fam before this starts to get a little out of hand.
mljones99 I do like the membership angle that has been brought up. I'd be all in on that.
We are going to talk about this on our Monday call, will let you guys know what we come up with.
Thanks again, and don't ever hesitate to give us open and blunt feedback, we feel its necessary to help make this place a home for all of us.
