When you really need a certain shareware and you’re sure that freewares with similar features don’t fit your needs. ( although we doubt it . You should look better
! )
… At least be aware that you can always find that software at a lower price that the official one !
We’re not saying that those prices are unfair or overrated . It’s just that internet’s shopping and marketing alternatives are so various and competitive, that there is always a website offering important reductions , if not 100 % giveaways .
Here’s a first tip : all developers have systematic promos for all products in their portfolio . The most direct way to access those promos is to download the free ( or a trial, or a beta ) version of one of their products .
Then you’ll probably might want to subscribe the developer’s newsletter . Why ? Because you’ll become an “ important client “ and you’ll start receiving weekly emails containing promos for the commercial products The reduction level is usually somewhere around 20-30 % ; sometimes even more substantial .
So this is a first “proof” that a shareware should never be purchased at its official price level . But there are much better price opportunities out there .
Our Promos and Giveaway Series will continue revealing opportunities that occur on the web . We have already presented serious sources of free sharewares promos , in articles like Giveaway Of The Day – Take It Away , Kasperky Recovery CD or Trial Pay .
Today we’ll talk about a sharewares discounter ,working under the most basic marketing rules : quantity and quality . And everybody is winning because the average discount level is 50% of the List Price .
