Selling for pennies

I can't understand why so many are in across-the-board distribution.It makes no sense to me. I had a just over one dollar sale this week. A portrait of a person who has been dead since the mid 80s and it was world wide. Drives me crazy. Then this one came in: Country: WorldwideUsage: Consumer goodsMedia: Garments/t-shirtsPrint run: up to 1,000Start: 27 January 2022End: 27 January 2025Duration: 1 year $6,45!!! A 50 year old picture of the Monty Python actors! Both these can't be re-created again. On the other hand, I have very few royalty-free pictures on Alamy but right before New Years a sale came in - a picture from the US taken in 1986 sold for $300! -
I take it all back! I have this month had two $3-sales and today a sale for $1,63 showed up. I mean, what's the point? I will never understand how it is a good business to sell at that price, Just the handling of that sale must cost Alamy much more. And no, my take won't buy a cup of coffee! Rolf in Stockholm

I just had my second best year in the number of sales, 72, just one short of my record from 2012. Money-wise, not so much, but I had hoped to pass $50.000 in gross sales this year but I am $18 short. On the other hand, my average gross sale price on Alamy is just over $71. Not bad, but that is thanks to the early years when prices where high. So, Happy New Year everybody! I hope next year will be better in every wat!

A new record?

No, not the distributor in Brazil, but I lost some there too. -
How was your April?
Rolf Adlercreutz replied to Steve F's topic in Stock photography discussion and contributor experience
Only 2 sales but one for $650 and the other for $65 so I'm happy. The big one was a renewal of an exclusive licence. The original was for $950, that is my best sale since I joined in 2003.
