Service packages are a powerful way to showcase your offerings and provide flexibility to your clients on Forhopp. However, it’s essential to understand the limits and guidelines associated with these packages to maximize their effectiveness and avoid complications. This article will help you troubleshoot common challenges related to service package limits and ensure your gigs comply with Forhopp’s policies.  

1. What Are Service Package Limits?

Service package limits refer to the maximum constraints set by Forhopp regarding the details and offerings of your gig packages. These include:

• Number of Packages: The maximum number of packages you can create for a single gig is typically three (Basic, Standard, and Premium).
• Deliverables: Limits on the number and type of services you can include within each package.
• Pricing Range: Forhopp sets minimum and maximum price ranges for each package.
• Add-Ons: Restrictions on additional services you can offer, such as extra fast delivery or custom revisions.

Why It’s Important: Understanding these limits ensures your gig complies with Forhopp’s policies, improves visibility, and provides clear options for your clients.  

2. Common Issues with Service Package Limits

Here are the most frequent problems freelancers face with package limits on Forhopp and how to troubleshoot them:

a. Exceeding the Maximum Number of Packages

Issue: You want to create more than three packages but are limited by the platform. Solution: Focus on optimizing your existing three packages. Use clear distinctions between Basic, Standard, and Premium to cater to a broader client base.

b. Including Too Many Deliverables in One Package

Issue: You’re trying to offer multiple deliverables in one package, and the platform doesn’t allow it. Solution: Break down your services into manageable parts and distribute them across packages. For example:

• Basic: Entry-level service with limited deliverables.
• Standard: Mid-tier service with moderate deliverables.
• Premium: Comprehensive service with all deliverables included.

c. Pricing Outside the Allowed Range

Issue: You’re unable to price your package below or above a certain threshold. Solution: Adjust your pricing within the allowed range and use add-ons for extra customization. For instance, if your Premium package hits the maximum price limit, offer additional services as paid add-ons.

d. Add-Ons Not Displaying Properly

Issue: Clients can’t see or select the add-ons you’ve created. Solution: Ensure your add-ons are correctly linked to the gig. Check if you’ve exceeded the add-on limit and simplify the options for clarity.  

3. Troubleshooting Steps for Service Package Issues

Step 1: Review Forhopp’s Package Policies

• Access Forhopp’s Help Center to read the guidelines on package creation.
• Familiarize yourself with platform-wide pricing and deliverable rules.

Step 2: Optimize Your Package Descriptions

• Clearly define what each package includes to avoid confusion.
• Use bullet points to list deliverables and highlight unique features for each package.

Step 3: Adjust Deliverables Across Packages

• Spread deliverables across Basic, Standard, and Premium to balance value and pricing.
• For example:
  • Basic: Includes one key deliverable.
  • Standard: Adds additional features or complexity.
  • Premium: Includes all features, premium support, or expedited delivery.

Step 4: Use Add-Ons Strategically

Offer add-ons for services not included in the main package, such as:

• Additional revisions.
• Faster delivery.
• Custom requests.

Step 5: Contact Forhopp Support for Limit Clarifications

• If you encounter unclear restrictions, reach out to Forhopp’s Support Team for clarification.
• Include screenshots and a detailed explanation of the issue to expedite resolution.
