GAME MONETIZATION & PRODUCT GROWTH
Choose the revenue change worth building.
Purchases have stalled. Retention is slipping. Or your team is weighing a paid feature with a real cost to build.
I’m Jordan Blackman. Work directly with me on the offer or experience design, an options comparison and a test brief your team can act on.
Choose what to change. Give your team a plan to test it.
For leaders of live games and consumer apps weighing a meaningful revenue decision. I’m Jordan Blackman, the independent consultant behind Bright Black Associates. I connect offers, pricing, progression and live ops with the experience people are paying for.
Understand the opportunity
01 / DIAGNOSIS
Start with the product, player journey and evidence you already have. Review purchase behavior, offer performance, progression, audience segments and the constraints on your team.
You receive: a decision brief that separates what we know, what we suspect and what needs testing.
Design the change
02 / STRATEGY & DESIGN
Compare credible options: a different purchase proposition, a pricing change, a pass, a subscription, an economy adjustment or a more focused event plan. Make the commercial and experience tradeoffs explicit.
You receive: an options comparison and a recommended design with economic assumptions your team can challenge.
Make it testable
03 / IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
Define the smallest useful implementation, its dependencies and the evidence needed to decide what happens next. Look at contribution and retained activity alongside conversion and spend.
You receive: a build-and-measurement brief. Your team implements; advisory support can continue through the test.
A focused engagement, built around your decision.
When is this a fit?
You have a live game or consumer app, useful product data, an accountable product or business owner, and a team able to act on the recommendation.
What can I help you work on?
In-app purchase pricing, offer design, game economies, live-ops priorities and new paid experiences. Consumer-app and entertainment models are also relevant when the decision matches this work.
Who does the work?
You work directly with me, Jordan Blackman. I lead the diagnosis, design and recommendation. Your team implements; advisory support through the test can be scoped separately. Read about my experience.
What happens first?
A conversation about your product, the change under consideration and the evidence available. We agree the scope, access, timing and fees around that decision.
Inspect the work before we talk.
Choose a route in the battle-pass-versus-bundle example, then see the recommendation translated into three concrete artifacts. The scenario is illustrative, with no client data or claimed results.
