Constant Content

Please could CC include the CC purchase rating of customers requesting work through public requests in the emails that CC sends us?
Thanks and regards,

That would be a nice addition. So far every article I have submitted to a customer with a 0 purchase rating has not only not been purchased, but not even looked at by that customer. Also, when I check back in the Requested Content list, the 0 rating customers don't seem to ever buy anything.

What has everyone else observed?

That is true most of the time. However, they may just be new to CC. I once submitted 3 articles to a client with a 0 purchase rating and a high payout. I think most authors ignored it since she had no rating. She purchased 2 of the articles at $125 and the third at $100! I do generally avoid the no purchase rating clients though unless the order looks serious or I happen to have articles already on my portfolio.

One of my best CC clients had a 0 purchase rating - and everyone else ignored him. He's been awesome.

I'm glad to hear some people have had positive results. I usually only respond to a 0 rating if I already know something about the subject. Responding to a public request can get your work approved faster, so even if the customer doesn't read it, the article's out there

I'd like to second the idea to include ratings in emails. Celeste is probably right about finding a gem customer, but there do seem to be a lot of people who get excited about having some work done and then ADD away...
