Thoughts on Limited Access Trial Memberships

Beaver Bob · 2006-01-28, 05:06 PM

About a month ago, we took trial memberships out of our membership options, and its actually worked out better for us. We don't get nearly as many cancellations. We want to bring trial memberships back, but we don't want to give away everything we have, and just have the members download everything and cancel the next day. Its doable with a broadband connection, and anyone with half a brain would do just that.

Is giving trial members access to one full video scene from each of our 4 exclusive sites enough to keep people from charging back? We do want to run an honest business, and I think limited access for trial members is the way to go, if its done right.. I'm just not sure how much to give. I do remember some discussion at the traffic panel at Internext, and a lot of people thought these types of memberships were dishonest. Our sites do have more content now then they did a month ago, and within the next month we'll have 2 more sites in our main members section, and we also use a couple plugin feeds from similar sites, so perhaps its worth testing the waters on this again without limited trials. Can anyone share their experiences in this?
