After discussion with a few other mods who are working in "banner sales" for lack of a better word, we would like to propose a discount for multiday banner rentals. You can find the current banner rental price here:

There is currently no discount for renting more than one day. The maximum rental period is two weeks. So, I would like to propose the following formula for discounts on multiday rentals:

Day 1: Full price

Day 2-7: 40% discount off full price per day

Day 8-14: 60% discount off full price per day

This formula keeps things simple, and offers a strong incentive for longer banners, which will hopefully help us avoid dead time in banner rentals.

Easy yes, too many empty days that could burn much Moons

Easily yes, we should make moves that guarantee at least 70-80% banner bookings per month, especially in a strong bullrun with tons of people on our sub.

unrelated but what do these colored boxes under our usernames represent?

We may want to specify consecutive days, or do you mean bulk purchases in general? A discount for consecutive days makes sense to me due to reduced mod work to change banners

Discounts will make more people try to buy banners so a good thing

We should start this with less aggressive discounts.

60% is a lot. We shouldn't price like we're having a clearance sale.

This is a great idea, but I'd like to take it a step further - allow our mods to adjust the banner prices as needed without always having to come back to a monthly vote.

The crypto space is dynamic and moves quickly. Allowing our trusted mods the authority to adjust banner/AMA prices accordingly will keep the banner rented without delay. At this point, it doesn't really matter to me what the percentages or costs are to rent the banner so long as it is rented.

Also, any way we could get a full-time marketer for our community - someone who is paid in Moons for bringing advertisers to our space? Be nice to have someone who reaches out to companies throughout the week and tells them all about our massive community and their opportunity to advertise to us.

I agree there should be a discount but imho 40 and 60% is way too high. Maybe let's start with more moderate numbers lik 20 and 30% and see how it goes?

BTW why it's impossible to rent for longer than 2 weeks?
