What I have: Draftly is a tool that help users create content for LinkedIn with the help of AI. Because I use AI, I have fixed cost of creating content using the AI model.
---
There are three plans that I currently offer.
Plan 1 - this is for people who only post on their individual account. We give 20 credits to create 20 posts / month. This is right fir for someone who publishes one post every weekday.
Plan 2 - this is for someone who posts on their individual account as well as business page. We give 50 credits to create 50 posts/month shared between their individual account and the business page.
Plan 3 - this is for someone who manages their client's business pages. Here we give 100 credits to create upto 100 posts/month across all the pages they manage.
---
Problems/Issues raised by customers:
- They run out of credits but dont have business page. - 100 credits are not enough since they manage 20+ pages - They want to manage more than 1 page but unable to use 100 credits.
---
What I was thinking:
- Have the first Plan only. - Charge $x for every page they add. Its a small fee. - Allow them to top-up the credits whenever they run out of it. - I'm still brainstorming and need some help/suggestion in coming up with a pricing plan that simple, easy to understand, and win-win for both them and us.

It doesn't matter, they should upgrade
> 100 credits are not enough since they manage 20+ pages
They must just buy another 100 credit package.
> They want to manage more than 1 page but unable to use 100 credits.
It doesn't matter, they should upgrade.
One common trick is to give a funny name to the 1st plan, like student, beginner, idiot^W, starter, ... So serious people don“t select it, and if someone needs to upgrade the request sounds like a compliment: "Yo are a very important person, so you must upgrade from the beginner plan to professional plan".
Plan 2 is "professional" and plan 3 is "enterprise", or something like that.
Anyway, read whatever patio11 said about that https://www.kalzumeus.com/greatest-hits/ in particular https://www.kalzumeus.com/2012/09/21/ramit-sethi-and-patrick... and also this post by Joel Spolsky https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2004/12/15/camels-and-rubber-...

Why not per credit sales in addition to the bundles?
Or only sell in bundles of 100 (or some other number)?
