Help us design a new product!

[Daphne]

We're consdering a new product here at Mind Control Theatre, and we'd love your opinion on it. You can take the survey here. Thank you!

Just a quick clarification on the survey:

Would the product as described where the main benefit of the subscription would be the ability to buy discounted MCT movies, and then the 'bonuses'  described in the survey?

Or would the subscription include movies going forward, and the 20% discount would more be for the back catalogue of movies?

[Daphne]

It would be just like the MCC discount, which is on all movies all the time. The free bonus movies included in the subscription would not be our regular releases, but special productions just for members. The regular releases would be 20% off.

Gotcha.  Thanks Daphne

The price seems reasonable, especially in 3-month increments. I'd be interested in the frequency of bonus material.

[Daphne]

I'd be interested in the frequency of bonus material.

Probably something every other month. As with the comic bonuses, the material for subscribers will be our opportunity to be a bit more free-form and experimental. The frequency will increase as the number of subscribers increases.

Your survey needs a "comments at the end" section.

The pricing you're thinking about seems good, but like all such things: my inclination would be to test drive for a couple of months. I dip in and out of MCC; while I do visit regularly, I tend to skim and then maybe once a month, I'll go back and actually read what is new this month. I buy an MCT offering maybe one out of 3 or 4 (or 5). So I'm not entirely sure a subscription makes sense--I'd have to try it out.

I'm tired of wading through the "when are you going to get Daphne Rosen back and why aren't your movies free?" responses. :-)

[hereno]

why aren't your movies free?

Few thoughts (which I already provided via email, but...)

Comment 1:  I have a membership at MCC so some of the incentives that you are planning don't actually provide all that much value to me (For example, I already get a discount on MCT movies)

Comment 2:  With respect to memberships at Mind Control Theater, behind the scenes stuff and the like isn't particularly exciting for me.  Member only movies?  Perhaps, but its unclear why this would be a more cost effective way for you make $$$

Comment 3:  What I would find most enticing would be the ability to prioritize different types of content.  More specifically

a.  Voting on different themes / scripts
b.  Perhaps being able to choose different MCC titles to adapt (Love to see what you could do with "Back Issues", "Annie with an i", "Template", or even "Audiophilia")
c.  Which actresses to work with
d.  Maybe even customs

Sounds good to me. I'm interested.

Just in case anyone thought I was exaggerating, I just got an email that said:

could't you bring back Daphne Rosen ?

The struggle is real.

What's the most popular MCT piece she appeared in?

Employee Orientation, for sure. The movie that put us on the map!

Of course, the truly amusing part of this is that you were able to get Daphne Rosen back....
Sort of
