What do you guys think about this:

A feature that would be nice is a scheduler to automatically submit your songs into the review process at a scheduled time you set. Here’s why: right now I just submitted a song for review. Say I had another song I wanted to submit as well (considering I had a rather inspirational day writing yesterday). I have to wait a few hours so that they don’t get reviewed back-to-back and only one of them scrolls across AudioJungle’s front page (insert your marketplace). But now is the best time, for I HAVE time. Whereas later today is busy. So for this to happen, now I have to wait until tomorrow to submit. I would rather like to schedule my second song to be submitted into the review process about 8 hours from now or whatever.

Just an idea I’m throwing out there. Maybe it has been discussed already? :)

What do you think?

Can’t you open the submit form, fill everything out and then don’t click submit until you are ready? I don’t think there is a timeout limit…but I could be wrong.

I don’t rememeber who posted the idea some time ago and it was interesting : some kind of “make live” button available once the item has been reviewed and accepted so the author can choose when it’s available. This could work for some marketplaces, maybe not all of them.

I like this idea a lot.

I think that if this feature was implemented, everyone is going to set their items live on populair days. So if you set your item live, it is possible that it is on the homepage for like only 1 hour, because 100 items are being put live on the same day. ;)

Yes that’s the main drawback, huge fights on mondays :p It could work with some limitations (1 item per month for example) but again, this is not relevant for all marketplaces IMO . That makes me think that a “temporary disable” button would be nice when we have an important bug to fix. Just ideas :)

Define popular day? What makes a day more attractive than any other?

He means days that people think sales increase on like Monday or Friday.

Usually there’s more exposure at the beginning of the week rather than on week-ends

Yes, for Pixelworkshop’s suggestion, this could be a problem… I thought about that too. But for my original suggestion, I don’t think there is a problem. The files still get accepted when it reaches the end of the review process on the reviewers’ timeframe. I would just enjoy submitting all of my item information for everything at once, then schedule out when they go into queue. For instance, saying I just submitted an item. Then I upload another item, input all the information (description, files, tags, etc.) and schedule it to be added to queue tomorrow at 3 p.m. (in case I wouldn’t have time to do it later or risk my window being closed by my family or something… to answer iapcsolutions’ question) Then at 3 p.m. is when the estimated 7-day (or whatever the timeframe is for other marketplaces) review process begins.
