Sobi Templates Membership Update

Written by Robert Vining | 08 November 2011

Sobi Templates has been open for just a little over 3 months now, and we've released 4 templates to date. 2 for Sobi2 and 2 for SobiPro. Our Membership has grown to 76 awesome people. I can't thank each of you enough for joining the Sobi Templates club, it's been better than I could have ever expected.

We had originally offered a 2 month subscription plan, but it seems that some of you would like to have a full year of access, while others simply need just a little more time for support.

As of today, Sobi Templates is extending it's membership plans to include a 12 month Developer plan for $147, along with adding an extra month to our Basic plan to make it 3 months at the original $47 price point. Current subscribers won't be left out, as you can take advantage of a 20% discount upon subscription renewal for either plan as well. Simply use RENEW20 upon checkout.

Why are we doing this? We have decided to focus all our efforts on SobiPro templates from here on out. Joomla 1.5 is nearing End of Life, so we have stopped development on Sobi2 templates as of last month.

We would like to produce 1 new template each month for SobiPro, but we cannot guarantee that will always be the case. Sobi Templates is just me, Robert Vining doing all development, marketing and support for our club members.

I would rather take care of our members with excellent support, than to worry about getting a brand new template ready each month and not be able to provide the proper documentation and maintenance that it requires.

So the extra month added to the Basic membership for $47 should allow you plenty of time to build your directory and get the support you need. At the same time I won't feel like I'm falling short of your expectations for new releases if we happen to miss a month here or there.

As always, your questions and suggestions are welcome in the comments and members are welcome to contact me directly if you prefer. Thanks again for supporting Sobi Templates, and we look forward to 2012 and Joomla 2.5 with SobiPro!
