Back in January you conducted a survey with suggestions for template ideas for this year.
There were many good ideas: Job Board, Dating, Property, Travel, Social, Reservations, Escort, etc.
It is sad to see that except for 1 SobiPro Property theme all templates during the first 6 months of this year have been New/Magazine, Corporate/Business and E-Commerce (something many users said you already have enough templates).
It is almost like you don't listen to your (paying) customers and I fully understand that the comments on this newest template (just another News/Magazine - there are enough already) express frustration and disappointment.
Your templates look nice, but if you can't offer variety and new ideas/creations your (paying) customers will move to one of your competitors.
Your business can only succeed if you are innovative, and your customers have given you many ideas about what they need and what is missing.
Let me summarize prior requests and suggestions:
1. Update J2.5 templates to J3.x
2. Job Board (there are some limited free extensions or you could use a free classifieds script like AdsManager).
3. Hotel/Booking/Reservation (JomRes is a powerful component with a free version)
4. Dating/Social (JomSocial is very popular and has a free version)
5. A fresh Directory (i.e. with free SobiPro)
6. Also a fresh Blogging theme may be good for many users
I would really like to see you guys continue and succeed and get positive feedback from your customers. But for that you need to remain innovative and listen to your customer's concerns and suggestions.
Thank you.
