To Keep your name up there and to keep your sales up is to at least do 5 things a day so that it does keep it in the new items and once someone sees yoru new item and they like it they will more then likely pull up your name to view what other items you have in the catty that they may like. Also..if your sells are down and you wish to pick up new clients and more sells make a reasonably cheap item and simply just start gifting random people with it to introduce them to who you are. Even though you bought it and the money comes back to you it is still a sell as well as when someone randomly gets a item from you for free they will take a look at it and then pull up your catty and see what else that you have and what interests them sometimes you find new clientele this way. Productive salesmanship. :tlaconcerned:

So, does pumping out quality products daily really guarantee sales? Or is it all marketing and having somewhat of a fan base/a group of supporters? Or probably both?

I think if u r just starting out, you really need to be consistent with creating new products every once in awhile. Getting put in newest products or just having that label does help to draw attention to those items.

Personally I have seen many amazing developers with really nice products but they don't get many sales. I think it's mostly because they don't get enough notice yet. With so many products in the catalog it is very hard to stand out. So some developers post their new products in the imvu forums/groups and also host giveaways. I think that's better than randomly giving ur products to people who may or may not appreciate them.

I dont think there is any way to just become pro legitly that is easy. Only after you have established a base then you could potentially do nothing and still remain pro. I have been inactive in developing but have managed to retain pro for at least over a year. And its only because of product sales and derived sales. And those weren't built overnight, it was done over many years of hard work before I stopped.

Keeping pro status is definitely another challenge to overcome once achieving it.

Be reassured it is normal to drop. Have experienced it as well. Bonus part is, you are capable of regaining pro status since you've achieved it already. As per
@RI5
response it is all based on a rolling 3month cycle compared to other creator's numbers. Like she said review your previous teirs to current and see where the difference is.

Do keep in mind, purely my personal opinion, i believe the system is rigged. As there are very good creators who do not have pro behind their names. Because such they dont meet the tier criteria in mesh or promo sales BUT have very high sales! Who really wants those promo sales anyways? -shrugs- That's where my challenge has been is getting those promo sales. I would rather personally have the real credits!!!

Having pro status by no means reflects your skills.

Disclaimer: sorry I wrote this reply before seeing there was a second page already on this thread lol! But just leaving my post here in it's entirety cos I did kinda mention other things.

@smykey

Did you check your tier level details?
You can find it under the IMVU classic website, community -> creator program -> my tier.

There would be the full breakdown of your tier level.
You should see something like this:

Core metrics
Metric Value Tier Points
Sales (direct) x 3
Sales (derived) x 0
Income (credits) x 3
Income (promo credits) x 3

Unique metrics
Metric Value Tier Points
Products in the catalog x 3
Products recently submitted x 0
Average product rating 5 3

Spare metrics (unused)
Metric Value Tier Points
Peer Review activity 0 0
CC Forum posts 0 0
Your Tier Level: x

So there are actually very easy ways to get pro creator status.
If you already have good sales (direct) and income(credit) and income (promo credit), you just need to ensure your product ratings are maxed out at 5 for 3 points.
If your catalog is big enough, you should also easily get the 3 points.Then just pick another category in unique metrics to work on. A easy one is products in the catalog (by being active in submitting you can get high points).

There is a good detailed post regarding tiers and what current numbers will give you how many points in the imvu forums.

For every 3 points you go up a tier.

Tier 1: 1-3 points
Tier 2: 4-6 points
Tier 3: 7-9 points
Tier 4: 10-12 points
Tier 5: 13-15 points
Tier 6: 16-18 points
Tier 7: 19-21 points
