18 days since Vignoble launched, still 0 sales. Nobody answered my eyeballs question yet, but the payment link went from 1 view to 2 this week, so it's getting a tiny bit of traffic now. Not sure 1 extra click means anything, but I'll take any signal at this point.
17 days since Vignoble launched, still 0 sales in Stripe. Picked up a couple new followers and a like on my last post here though, so a few more people are looking even without a sale yet. Not sure if that is just normal pre-first-sale noise or an actual signal. Anyone know a rough number of eyeballs it usually takes before the first one converts?
12 days since Vignoble went live and still 0 sales, checked directly in Stripe like a few people here have been doing. The payment link itself only shows 1 view in that window, so honestly it has not really been tested by traffic yet, not just rejected. For anyone who has done more than one launch here, how much organic traffic did a template actually get before the first sale, or does it mostly take being featured somewhere?
Finally got around to writing up how I fixed that scroll bug from a while back. I was sliding three panels sideways with translate and it kept breaking on different screen sizes because the offset is px only. Switched to stacking the panels and cross-dissolving the opacity instead, and that held up everywhere.
Thinking about reusing the same trick for a bigger gallery later. Has anyone pushed cross-dissolve past 3 or 4 panels, or does it start looking muddy past that?
Still 0 sales on the payment link, so I've had time to sit with a question I do not have an answer to: did I pick too narrow a niche.
I built a winery template because I liked the visuals, not because I had seen demand for it. Now I keep wondering if narrow is actually the problem or if six days just is not enough signal either way.
For anyone who has shipped more than one template, how do you tell "wrong niche" apart from "not enough time yet"? Genuinely asking, not fishing for reassurance.
Been meaning to reply to this for a bit. After reading a few posts here about people not knowing if their templates sold, I stopped guessing and just checked my own Stripe account directly instead of waiting on an email.
Turns out that works. It shows exactly what happened, no notification needed. For Vignoble it is still 0 sales, 0 views on the payment link since it went up on Aug 4. Not fun to post, but it is the real number.
Anyone else checking their own payment processor instead of relying on Framer or a bank-connect email, or is there a place I'm still missing?
One decision I made on this template that I keep going back and forth on.
The testimonial section ships with the words "Add your client's words here" instead of a realistic fake quote from a fake winery. It looks emptier in the screenshots. But a fake testimonial in a template is a fake testimonial someone forgets to replace.
Curious what other people do here — do you fill templates with realistic dummy content or obvious placeholders?
This is my first Framer template. I spent way more time on the scroll transforms than on the design itself.
Two things cost me hours: the transform offsets are px only, they silently ignore % and vw. And the in-editor preview lies about scroll, I had to publish and check the real URL every time.
It went up today, no sales yet. Curious how you test scroll work, do you publish every time too?
