# FiveM Best Practices for Packages

###  Game Server Packages

#### Visual Appeal Matters

* First Impressions: The package image is often the first thing a user notices. Use high-quality, visually engaging images that reflect the theme of the package.
* Consistency: Maintain a consistent style across all images to reinforce brand identity.
* Key Elements to Include:
  * A clear title of the package.
  * Relevant graphics (e.g., vehicles, skins, or icons representing scripts or mods).
    * Don’t take pictures of items at night, if possible.
  * Your server’s logo for brand recognition.
  * Use contrasting colours to ensure the text is readable.

#### Tips:

* Preview Videos: Include short preview videos (YouTube/TikTok/Instagram) or GIFs alongside static images. You can use this to grow your socials outside Tebex and use it as media to promote your brand.
* Creating an easily editable template on platforms like Figma or Photoshop will help you maintain a sense of uniformity and consistency in your product library.

### 2. Mods/Scripts Packages

#### Showcasing Mods/Scripts

* Product Showcase Videos:
  * Create videos showcasing the features and performance of the mod/script in a live server environment.
  * Keep videos concise (30-90 seconds), demonstrating key features.
  * Example structure:
  * Start with an introduction (name and purpose of the script).
  * Highlight unique features.
  * Show it in action (e.g., a vehicle mod driving or a roleplay script being used).
* Tutorial Videos:
  * Provide separate in-depth tutorials (Will vary on the complexity of the product).
  * Example structure:
    * Step-by-step installation guide.
      * Configuration/customization tips.
      * Troubleshooting common issues.
* Host videos on platforms like YouTube and embed them into your product page.

### 3. Descriptions

#### Crafting Effective Descriptions

* Headline: Start with a compelling headline that summarizes the package’s key benefit.
  * Example: “Mechanic Script 2.0 – Vehicles made simply fun!”
* Features:
  * Use bullet points to list major features (e.g., “Customizable patrol routes, real-time alerts, etc.”).
* Value Proposition:
  * Explain how this package improves the gameplay experience.
* Technical Details:
  * Include details like compatibility, file size, and dependencies.

#### Tips:

* Avoid jargon; keep it simple and clear for all users.
* Include a FAQ section addressing common queries.
* Generally, it is a really good practice to keep an up-to-date knowledge base to minimise support bogging down development or other business ventures. 

### 4. Pricing and Package Types

#### OneTime Packages vs Subscription Packages

* One-Time Packages: These are best for standalone products that require no ongoing updates or support. They are ideal for deliverables/mods/scripts with fixed, complete value (e.g., premium currency, vehicle packs, simple scripts).
* Subscriptions: Perfect for dynamic, evolving products requiring frequent updates, support, or exclusive content. Encourage long-term engagement and provide stable recurring revenue. Use tiers to create separate price points to make your collection as accessible as possible. (e.g., $10/month for basic, $30/month for premium).

#### When to Choose Each 

* One-Time: If the product is static and maintenance-free.
* Subscription: If the product evolves, needs regular updates, or offers ongoing perks like VIP access or new monthly content.

#### Average Transaction Values 

* This will depend on your specific user base - be sure to use your Avg Transaction value found in your “Statistics” -> “Payments” Panel on your Dashboard: <https://creator.tebex.io/statistics>
* Creating different price points is extremely important as some customers have more spending power than others - make your products as accessible as possible for as many people as possible! <br>

#### Regional Pricing

* Localized Adjustments:
  * Use geolocation tools to offer region-specific pricing.
  * Example: A package priced at $20 in the US might be $15 in developing markets.
* Currency Display:
  * Show prices in local currencies to improve user trust and reduce cart abandonment.

#### Sales and Coupons

* Discount Strategies:
  * Flash Sales: Offer 25%-30% discounts during holidays or special events.
  * Bundles: Provide discounts for purchasing multiple packages (e.g., “Buy 2, Get 15% Off”).
  * First-Time Buyers: Offer a one-time 10% discount for new customers.
* Loyalty Rewards:
  * Provide coupons for repeat buyers or subscribers.
