How to attract buyers

Just wanted to know your thoughts about how to get buyers interested in your event when you get started.

A lot of sellers are trying to sell their first events but never do.

What can make a buyer take your share and not the one of someone else?

That s nice for my ego but I was talking more about share size, type of events, cmu$ or not etc.

I think factors that might help are:

-allow cmu$
-1$ share
-instead of listing 1 tourney at a time, make a custome event with 4 or 5 if you can.

I won't repost from my previous post about CMU but I'll hit the highlights.

1. Allow CMU$ so people aren't worried about losing the cash invested in you.
2. Offer stakeback, especially in multi-tourney custom events. Again, protects the buyers ROI.
3. Play tournaments that you will play whether you sell or not. Makes buyers more comfortable supporting you.

Your idea about $1 shares works well on Stars. Kinda bites on FullTilt with their $5 minimum transfers.

And of course, win.
