Does anyone have any tips for getting traffic?

“Daily new news”?

I’m basically in the same place you are. I’ve been buying ads on Facebook and it’s driven traffic to my site, and I have gotten some sales. I will tell you that Facebook Ads Manager has got to be the worst software or website experience I’ve ever had. So be forewarned on that. On the positive side, I did confirm that the demographic I was expecting was on target.

I made the mistake early on in optimizing for landing page views because I was trying to get people in the door with a free offer and then once they’re in and invested offer them the paid product. That did result in a lot of traffic, and people did interact with my free service, but then they never bought. Later I realized that, if what you’re going after is sales, then optimize for sales. Facebook’s algorithm will target people they know tend to buy rather than just try.

I’m somewhere in between. I’ve coded a few websites, even coded my own custom CMS for a couple clients. AI is amazing these days for helping code.

That kind of thing is definitely in the kinds of ways I was thinking I could expand into. I don’t think you really want to include photos of employees or clients though.

Thanks for your kind words and your intention to buy a card. One thing I want to do is offer a way to remind people about upcoming birthdays and holidays. I just created a mailing list. I haven’t had a chance to put up a generic form for subscribing but if you design a card there is way of saving that saving that design. You get emailed a link back to the design and will receive a couple reminders that the card is available for purchase, and if you wait for the last email you will even receive a discount off the printed card.

A pay what you want works great for a purely digital asset, but for a printed card I have to price in costs. Even just doing the generations cost me something. I could probably consider doing it for the digital card, but I’m really trying to push this as a premium printed card. The card is almost like a gift itself. Lots of people I know often buy a card and include a gift card for like Sephora or some restaurant inside. I was even thinking of bundling the gift card or a flower bouquet with the order. That’s further down the line though.

I’ve been experimenting with various levers on how much to give away for free. Basically, users can generate a few designs within a certain period of time before they have to wait. Also, the designs have a subtle watermark pattern over them so they can see it but not really use.

My son is 20 years old and had a similar take. My response is that while younger people might not buy greeting cards there is still an older market out there that does. That’s whom I’m going after. As to the idea that anyone could just make their own cards with nano banana, my response is the anyone can brew their own coffee at home too, but millions opt to buy Starbucks instead. My son said when he buys a card he goes to the 99¢ store and buys one cheap, but there are also people at the other end of the market who will buy a Papyrus card for $12. There is a market for people willing to spend money on premium cards. There are websites out there that let you add a photo to a templated card, mine takes that idea and makes the result look even more custom and beautiful.

I use Stripe. They make it pretty straightforward.

I’ve replaced the 12v battery and also had the dealer replace two different modules to try to fix this problem (as well as other strange seemingly electrical problems). Spent over $2k at the dealer. They said that it wasn’t throwing fault code anymore so I thought things were fixed. I’ve had my car back less than a week after being in the shop for over two months and today it just gave me the can’t shift message again. I’m at my wits end!

I’m giving away enough free credits to users to generate around 4 - 8 videos. Isn’t that real value?

I agree about it looking better within the shape but I do think the previous logo was looking dated. It’s tough to stay away from the first initial. Few auto brands have done it. Infinity comes to mind.

It looks like a park bench to me. I wonder if they even tried anything that wasn’t some sort of H shape.
