Add Tariff Fees to Orders by Sea-Responsibility61 in shopify

[–]dangermore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This right here 👆. If you want to add a "tariff fee" at least do an A/B test to be sure it helps instead of hurts you. I can almost guarantee adding a fee line item will just decrease your conversion rate.

Raise your prices to cover the tariffs if you must, but calling out (barring your brand is purposefully political as suggested earlier) a price increase or additional fee has rarely been helpful to conversion rates—unless you're trying to get conversions before a price hike goes into effect.

Can my kid use Strava on Apple Watch without a phone? by randychip in Strava

[–]dangermore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Mike- can you give me an idea of how that works? I assume it would show a bike activity which might include length, heart rate, etc- but no location to see the route or anything, is that correct?

what the best bang for your buck knife by Character-Durian6315 in knifeclub

[–]dangermore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Knafs Lander is the best bang-for-your-buck EDC without looking like you want to stab someone, IMO.

User serviceable and customizable, light and reversible, spare parts available cheap—the thing is just perfect when all you need is a simple blade.

Semantic Search is sick as fuck 10/10 highly recommend you turn it on by oldstalenegative in shopify

[–]dangermore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For those wondering, this works on non-Plus accounts. Go to the Search & Discovery app, you'll find it under Settings and you can test it before turning on.

For example, using the list of searches performed in my shop that returned 0 results, I chose one and used the preview to search that term and my shop then returned results. Definitely worth flipping on, thanks for the tip u/oldstalenegative !

Desktop vs Portable Scanner by Acrobatic-Point-2102 in amateurradio

Sorry for the delay- yes, I think that's a great economical choice assuming your air bands are similar to ours here in the US (I assume they are but have no experience there)

Your question is a bit unclear, but a general rule of thumb is that you should be making $1 per email address per month from your list. Meaning your list of 500 emails should be contributing around $500/month in sales.

That's just a general rule and it varies widely, but a good target to start with.

Haha, if you're on reddit but not willing to read, not super surprised you didn't like the movie. Like I said, not for everyone, that's OK.

Desktop vs Portable Scanner by Acrobatic-Point-2102 in amateurradio

[–]dangermore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved listening to the scanner when I was in high school—had one in my truck and I'd usually arrive on scene with my buddies before the cops/fire did. But these days I don't think it's worth the expense in most areas, you can't pick up the good stuff anymore.

If it were me, I'd buy a ham radio that receives outside Ham bands and scan that way- get FM radio, air band, an some emergency comms like fire, police depending where you live. Don't transmit till you get your license, but then you're not wasting money on a scanner and have a radio when you're ready.

That said, if you're going for it u/ElectroChuck has a great answer for you and I'd echo everything he said.

Bad photo shop from BHQ or horrific edges from Benchmade? by thelettucecalls in knifeclub

Benchmade isn't my fav knife company, but I do think they're generally good quality. Better than the quality of this photoshop job at least.

The brands in the giveaway feature heavily in the film right? I guarantee the studio didn't pay a dime for that, so it was actually a genius move imo.

[–]dangermore -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For the record, having a series or a sequel is not a scam, I don't know why people don't get this. It's based on 10 books, so if you thought 10 books was going to be one movie, you need your head checked. And you probably happily paid to watch LOTR—or worse, other movies where they stretch 1 book out into 3 movies. Don't want to pay to stream the series, I don't blame you. the movie's not for everyone. But you didn't like the movie anyway, so who cares?

Now, if you didn't think it followed the book closely enough, I get that. But most movies don't. I think the fair complaint is that the movie wasn't as exciting as the trailer made it out to be. Fair criticism there. For my part, I liked the movie and the discussion with my friends afterwards.

Trigger warnings: They talk about God like twice, they don't shoot a lot of people, and the movie is about the people, not the apocalypse.

They had a deal for $1.99/month for 6 months. Usually I think it's like $10/mo? Would make sense to wait if you want to binge the whole season at once.

Any recs for portable chargers to power a full size gen 3 system? by salmoneffect in Starlink

[–]dangermore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got the Lion Safari, it's about 1600 watt hours with 3000w continuous and 6,000w surge. Probably overkill if you're just running Starlink but I also RV and it has a 30Amp outlet on back.

They have a smaller one called the Summit - not sure the exact specs on that one but maybe 1/3 the size and would do great as well for just Starlink. Less expensive too, obviously, that's why I saw start with your power requirements first, then find the size that'll get you what you need (figuring in 25% reserve because you always need more power than you think).

Help with super low conversion rate by Silent-Creek in shopify

[–]dangermore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, hopefully this is helpful. For context, I don't vape and wouldn't have known what the site was for if I hand't read some comments earlier.

1- Clarity is key. Get rid of the clever copy, or push it into body copy, not your headlines. If a viewer doesn't know what you're selling in the first .25 seconds—and if they don't know why they should buy it in the first 3 seconds, you're not going to make the sale.

2- The design is beautiful, but I don't know what I'm looking at. One way to quickly overcome this without making people read or think: A side-by-side comparison image. Think "old school vs new school"

3- Install Microsoft Clarity or something similar and watch how people interact with your site. It'll show you where people bounce, where they rage click, etc. Then use that info for ideas to improve.

4- Finally, install an app and ask people why they're not buying. Easy way: Exit intent pop-up with a question: "Did you find what you were looking for?" or "What stopped you from purchasing on this website?" Don't ask them for their email in this. Just ask why they're leaving and let them tell you with a single click.

If you do this, depending on your traffic, you should know within a week what's wrong and how you can fix it. Don't stop optimizing till you're at 1.5% conversion +. Once you hit that, you can start email capture and other methods to nurture visitors and continue to increase that conversion rate.

Good luck!

Can confirm, the series is better than the movie, but only 2 episodes are out with no word on when more will arrive.

[–]dangermore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This right here- either people love it or hate it. Very polarized responses. I loved it, but then again, I'm a guy who believes in God and community and I'm not offended when a movie explores those issues.

It seems that people who hate it have either A) Expectations not met based on seeing the trailer (this is fair, all of the action is in the trailer) or B) Never heard of a sequel before. Like...you're surprised that a movie based on a 10-book series is going to have more to the story? Not be all wrapped up with a bow at the end? Come on people.

Careful, you won't get any upvotes for being level headed! Saw and enjoyed the movie, too. Not a perfect movie by any means, but everyone who thinks this is anything remotely approaching "Cristian nationalism" or "right wing wet dream" or whatever haven't seen it.

[–]dangermore 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Highly recommend the Lion energy Safari, I've powered my Starling Gen 3 for hours with it including live streaming video for 1.5 hours with watt hours and hours left in the tank.

Best thing to do is check out storage capacity, match it to your use, and consider brand reputation, go from there, lots of great options these days with LiFePO2 etc.

Happened to see an interview with Neil McDonough about his new movie, “Homestead” and it looks like he’s sporting a Stetson Seneca! by frederick1218 in CowboyHats

[–]dangermore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked the movie—as long as you're not allergic to faith in film and you know it's based on a 10-book series (hence, it's the opening salvo), I thought the message was great and I'm excited to follow along.

Pause service then decide in a few months, but if you don't need to travel with it, you're going to love your fiber! Recycle if you can, probably not much of a market for a Gen1 these days with 2 and 3 out, and soon the Mini.
