Description
Turn your plugin into a platform by enabling users to create, share, and sell presets or templates. Splice built a $1.48 billion sample marketplace by letting creators sell sounds. Xfer Serum has thousands of third-party preset packs sold across dozens of websites. When users can build on top of your plugin, they become invested in the ecosystem and recruit new users who want access to those presets.
