aphperspective 383 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I shall erupt into apathy if it gets any better this month. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Reimar 412 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I don't usually get a surge at the end of the month. Nor do I EVER have any sales listed in the "found images" thread. I'm not in the UK, so maybe I don't qualify for newspaper sales, which as I understand it, drive end of month surges. My own trend is more sales (18 so far this month) for less money than before ($560). Link to post Share on other sites

riccarbi 116 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 (edited) Surge? Sure! Depending on what you consider what a surge would look alike. To date, in 2018, I have more than doubled my sales, compared to 2017's. Unfortunately, the corresponding revenue is about the same, with a lot of fake "personal use" sales with microstock-like prices of $9 or so. More than a surge, I need some highly experimental surgery on my Alamy's port to keep it barely profitable in 2019... Edited November 28, 2018 by riccarbi Link to post Share on other sites
Jill Morgan 964 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I had 3 book sales pop in over yesterday and today. Glad they now tell you the book. Jill 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Very similar - very slow start to the month but things seem to be waking up this week. Still hoping to do well from the newspapers in the next couple of days to get the average up.

Phil Robinson 1,141 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 (edited) Has anyone else noticed a number of $15 book sales? - looks like a deal with one particular publisher. Not very excited with the amount BUT they come with the title of the book included! Helpful for DACS claims. Edited November 29, 2018 by Phil Robinson Link to post Share on other sites

andremichel 294 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Following a severe draught in September and October, I have seen a surge especially it recent days. 24 sales this month but they are just $ and $$ sales. The best is only $74 which came in today. Link to post Share on other sites

Number Six 54 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 5 in the last week if that counts as a surge. OK amounts and no Distributor sales - it's the future...:) Link to post Share on other sites
