Sale Offers & Why I’m so far behind.

Full transparency: These sales are being done because I need a new computer & that is where the proceeds will be going. I’m to a point where it takes over an hour to just to see anything or move sometimes when I sign on or I have to try to login 3+ times to see anything/move … All I see is: https://i.gyazo.com/0862c085b63f6b1ff2f2650cd9406e31.png

So I’m guessing this computer will not last much longer.

Besides the fact that I’m understaffed…This is another reason why it is taking me so long to do the work I am behind on and on top of trying to mix in doing hiring interviews (which I haven’t been able to get in the time) so I am SO sorry. If you wish to tip instead you can by paying any of the tip boards at the office. No obligation/pressure!

The reboots that are suppose to be on the 15th will be rescheduled for Monday at 12PM SLT. They will take a bit longer than normal for updates. I will send notice once all is cleared. If you have premium support, your stream/audtodj will be turned on for you otherwise you’ll have to log into your control panel & click start. I’m sorry for the inconvenience & lack of more advance notice that I usually give. Please be patient & understanding while I’m only 1 person doing the jobs of several people.

News & Updates

Hey there! 👋

1: BONUS TIME: Automatically get 1 week free when you put 4 weeks on any rental (new or existing). We will be keeping this as an automatic bonus 💖🎉 Must use the 4 week pay option to have bonus applied. If done right, you’ll see a notice in local chat.

This is Hostcrate’s early (13th) birthday gift to our 🥰AMAZING customers 🥰

2: EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS: This option is coming so those who seem to not be getting the notices from the rental boxes and/or miss our termination warnings, etc. There will be a small fee as this will take time to manage.

3: HIRING: I am currently very much understaffed which means I am doing everything myself so that is why there have been so many delays on my end (I’m sorry about that!!). We are hiring for 1 to 2 people to create our streams – attention to detail is HIGHLY important!. I will also be looking for 1 to 2 CSRs and an Event Manager (experience required for event manager). Interested? Applications at: https://news.hostcrate.stream/careers-now-hiring/

That is it for now! Have a great weekend everyone!! 😁😎

General Post, Recommendations, Reseller Plan, Updates

Reseller Accounts: Coming Soon

I have a lot going on as a business owner BUT we have been asked for years about an affiliate program. I tried it but I just don’t have the time to chase people around & the dealing with those who return rental boxes (which use to ERASE the data of the renter) was an absolute nightmare! So instead of an affiliate program, we will have a reseller program which you can sell streams under your own brand!

As a reseller:

  • You’ll be able to sell the streams that we sell with the amazing uptime we get with our datacenters without the worry of administrating an actual server yourself!
  • A flat pricing structure! We charge a flat reseller fee each month, that’s it!
  • Set your own pricing for the streams you sell!
  • Each reseller has their own server. You are *not sharing* with our customers nor with other resellers!
  • You must agree to & follow all of our policies or you’ll lose your account without refund so please read them *BEFORE* making this purchase!

Stay tuned by subscribing to our subscriber kiosk inworld or on our actual news web page at https://news.hostcrate.stream/

Move Update & Terminations (Feb 2021)

Move Update & Terminations
Fri, Feb 12 2021 9:10:00 PM PST

The move is finished BUT still arranging boxes to the correct SLURL. Use any “Make A Payment Sign” to renew. If you want an LM to yours send me a message. BUT there are over 20 overdue rentals so please come pay your stream if you are overdue & want to keep it. All streams that are over our grace period will be terminated within the next hour. I *don’t*take direct payments so please don’t ask, come pay the sign/rental box to renew.

RIDE: (copy/paste this into your local chat viewer to bring up the LM to TP)

Exciting Updates at Hostcrate!

A few exciting updates!

All rental boxes have been moved over to the new place. However, I am still in the process of arranging them so the landing point of your SL URL to your rental(s) may be a little off. You can use the Make A Payment sign to quickly pay your rental until I have arranged all the boxes properly if you wish not to go on a find & seek adventure ;). The payment sign is at the new location so no need to use the old place anymore. I am still settling things up so please be patient as we will have a directory to everything to make navigating the new place much easier. IF you need help please don’t hesitate contacting a staff member.

We will have shops including DJ equipment like Tip Jars, etc and a clothing store. Making purchases at these shops will help to keep us around. If you would like to have a shop of your own at our main office, we will have that option available soon! We will also have adboards if you wish to advertise that way (your club, main store, etc). If you already have an adboard, don’t worry as they will be moved over asap.

Here is the NEW LOCATION:
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Gigli%20Isles/204/107/1581

Be sure to make a landmark of it & update your PICKS if you have us in there!

The new server and control panel update:

So far, so good! We are still in beta and customers are so far enjoying the experience. If you are interested in joining the beta testing please reach out to me so I can add ya on! The requirements are: You have to have Discord, you have to be an active participate, and you have to be a current Hostcrate customer.

Please remember that the new server/control panel cannot use Custom URL’s so if you wish to switch when beta is over please keep that in mind.

That is all the updates for now. I will post more as we go.

Thank you!
