14 DAY TRIAL // Template Monster has put in place a partnership with startup company AllStockMusic to ensure an audio and music section to its website. The news was released to the public on September 2, Template Monster previously having done all the changes in its website front-end to accommodate the fresh section.
This latest development comes as a direct hit from the meteoric rise of the Envato Network with its complete set of user-supplied materials ranging from Flash components to graphic materials.
Envato, the owner of many successful online marketplaces like FlashDen (Flash components and templates), GraphicRiver (digital graphics and photography), ThemeForest (website templates and scripts), VideoHive (video products) and AudioJungle (sound and music effects) is breathing down Template Monster's neck for the top position in web-design and template offerings.
Even if the Template Monster website is ranked by Alexa above any other Envato marketplace, if they are all counted as a single entity, Template Monster will surely be in a tight spot for the first position.
The new deal signed with AllStockMusic will bring audio files to Template Monster in an attempt to fend off the competition. Members will be able to buy 150 credits on the AllStockMusic website at a half-price directly from the TM website. This offer is available only when acquiring a Flash template, SwiSH template, Flash intro or Dynamic Flash Photo Gallery.
Users will have to check an extra checkbox to add a music file to their template order. Both orders will be processed at the same time and if this is a first buy, the user will receive a letter from AllStockMusic with account details and their remained credits.
David Braun, CEO of Template Monster, said that "This is indeed a meaningful commercial agreement established with AllStockMusic.com. We really hope that all fans of Template Monster and our Flash templates will enjoy this cooperation both getting compelling Flash products and having an access to an ultimate resource of music tracks, loops, and jingles."
