Profitable Prices - Glyphius Pricing Digits Scoring.
Pricing digits are the digits used in setting prices for various products.
The question is: Which are the best digits to use? It depends.
For example, which, in general, should give a better response: $19.95 or $20.00?
Well, according to Brausch's Glyphius (version 2.0b2), yes $19.95 is better than $20.00. But, $25.00 is better than $24.95. And $24.50 is better than either.
I've gone and tablulated a large list of prices and their Glyphius (version 2.0b2) scores.
For a big list and comments, go to
Profitable Prices - Glyphius Pricing Digits Scoring.
Hey David;
ReplyDeleteWhat I find funny is that James says NOT to use Glyphius to score individual words, that it scores sentences. Yet, he himself, publishes scores of prices, which, if I understand how Glyphius works, are nothing more than individual words...

Hello Fred:
ReplyDeleteIt's even more granular (?) than that. Individual numerals (digits) are scored, not just prices. All prices using the digits 0,1,3,5, for example, score the same ($10.35, $13.50, $15.30, $31.50, $35.10, $51.30, $53.10, $135.00...).
IF - and I really have no idea - the scoring is valid, it would be used to decide between prices that are somewhat "close". So, since $13.50 does score better than $13.49, for example, you would look to using $13.50 in preference.
$135, another of his favorite high-scoring prices, outscores $125, $130, $150.
He does use it himself, though. Or has used it. At least a couple of his products still sold through Clickbank are still priced at $105 rather than $100 or $99, for example, as $105 scores much better. (With or without the period and pennies included in the prices.)
But, like I said, I have no idea if that is REALLY important or not.
Maybe I should add a disclaimer of some sort. Any suggestion?
(Please forward this to the attention of James Brausch and/or his customer service. Thanks)
ReplyDeletePlease, please respond and get this taken care of. I have sent numerous
emails and have not gotten one reply. Please don't make me file fraud
complaints because I do enjoy your products and have been a good
customer so far. All I want is my newsletter that I paid $300 for. Heck,
I just want SOMEONE TO REPLY AND ACKNOWLEDGE MY EMAILS!
I signed up for the James Brausch Newsletter via PayPal on Feb 10th

check into this for me?

Hello Ray:
ReplyDeleteSorry, I can't help you. I have no idea how to get him or his "customer service" to pay attention. Assuming I could even reach him/them.
He sure hasn't been responsive to me in the past, so I have not bought anything for quite some time, now.
A couple of suggestions, FWIW, but not likely to be successful:
1) Sometimes he opens comments on a blog post. You could try posting a comment requesting help. Maybe an intern will risk getting "fired" for taking pity on you and forwarding it to his highness, for attention during one of his 4-hour workweeks.
2) If you have an old product, maybe you could get "customer service" for that to forward your e-mail or take care of it. Don't hold your breath.
One possible problem is that it is likely that many times he sends physical stuff to your internet address of record, which may be the registrar or that of a privatization provider such as "domains by proxy" -- ignoring your preferred mailing address.
FWIW2: try ....brausch.ORG instead of ....brausch.COM

DB
You should tell him to file a complaint / request for his money back with Paypal and then subscribe to Terry Dean's newsletter... it's about 5000 times better and cheaper too. As far as I know, there's no customer service for JB's newsletter. I signed up for a while via Robert Phillip's $1 special for James' newsletter (before James stabbed Robert in the back) and it seems like it took 2 or more months before the first issue arrived. It's a big rip off... double spaced and just marginal content. One of the issue was simply filled with testimonials from one of his products and their MuVar values... I mean come on. Compare that to Terry's newsletter, which is not double spaced, and uses smaller type, and usually has about 11 pages of good solid content....
